I rarely check in here except when I'm doing either one of two things: a) accompanying my mother when she's hankering for almonds and goji berries, or b) looking for my favorite all-natural chocolate peanut butter. Really, their chocolate peanut butter just blows my mind. It's the best peanut butter I've ever tasted in a store! The texture of the peanut butter is so creamy, the dark chocolate so rich, that I ended up switching to wheat bread just to taste more of it. Skippy and Jif who? Even though I'm no health buff, I have to give props to Healthy Options for debunking the misconception that anything naturally and organically made will be bland and lacking in flavor. As its name suggests, Healthy Options offers super food alternatives to potato chips, microwaved food, fast food, and the like. With far less fat and even fewer calories, everything here can pretty much be consumed guilt-free. Their shelves display a miscellany of products, most if not all of them in line with the clean-eating lifestyle: Greek yogurt, granola bars, pretzels, lactose-free milk, and etcetera. No worries for the rest of your days! It seems everything has been stamped with the approval of the letter 'o'--organic hummus, organic bisque, organic noodles, organic bananas, organic coconut chips, and organic roasted seaweed snacks with teriyaki flavor...you get the idea. So if you're thinking of holding on to that New Year's resolution, ahem ahem, it's never too late to check out Healthy Options.

Healthy Options is something I thought I would never visit in my life. I love healthy food, but I…read morewon't really go out of my way to visit a store that sells organic products. When one of my best friends requested a Cadia Organic White Cheddar Cheese Popcorn for his birthday, I didn't really have a choice but to go to Healthy Options to buy it. When I found out that Healthy Options was actually selling Andalou Chia + Omega Radiant Skin Polish, I almost died. I really try my best to take care of my skin because it is sensitive and it easily gets dry because of the really hot weather here in the Philippines. Andalou Chia + Omega Radiant Skin Polish is what I use for my skin when it is feeling dry and flaky. Just use this product once and you'll immediately notice your skin glow. Andalou is really hard to find in the Philippines so if you want a fair and glowing skin make sure you visit this place and try out their different cosmetic products. If you want to start living healthy, then head on to Healthy Options!

What? What do you mean there's no whole foods organic section in the grocery?? - My German…read morevegetarian friend to me. Honestly, though, with the growing interest in sustainable and healthy living, you'd think more and more groceries would think about putting in an organic section. But, alas, it is not to be. Healthy Options has been steadily gaining momentum over the past few years, and what I first brushed off as a store that only sells "healthy food that I don't need", has now become one of my favorite stores to shop in. If you're into the clean-eating thing or you want to get into it, Healthy Options offers a variety of products that you cant find elsewhere. Personally, I get my ground flaxseed, quinoa, lentils and almond milk from the place. They have lots of products from Bob's Red Mill (a popular natural foods brand abroad).Healthy Options also has many gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan friendly products that's sure to make any health buff cry. My only contention, perhaps, are the prices, but then again, most of their products are imported.

AMBIENCE After enjoying the view outside the mall, we…read moreentered this branch and "brought ourselves outside" again. Theme of the restaurant is really pretty and makes me want to go out-of-town like Tagaytay or Baguio. I wonder how they take care of the tree leaves on the ceiling. FOOD & BEVERAGES I'm actually satisfied with the price for the Local All Natural Steak. Serving size was okay and meat was cooked and sliced nice and neatly. When healthy options taste good, I feel a spark of hope for the future! This is why I had difficulty appreciating the Grilled Organic Bone Marrow, which looked very sinful. Both the Banana and Very Berry Smoothies were delicious! SERVICE Thank you for letting us stay a bit long because we enjoyed our conversations!

There was a time when I didn't give a crap about stores like this cause I didn't care about my nutrition, but times have changed. I've come to appreciate the kind of food that stores like these sell. Most of the items on their shelves will be a bit expensive. These aren't produced locally after all and I think all of us can appreciate how expensive it can be to ship stuff here from the states. All the taxes and duties really does take a toll on the shopper. You're bound to find something great here, the only real problem though is that you have to have deep pockets to make the most out of the options that this place has to offer. If you don't have the money like I do I sometimes get the feeling hat health isn't an option.

It was my first time at Legaspi Sunday Market (7am to 2pm) yesterday and I loved it! They had so…read moremany diversities in cuisine and products. AND they had a section of organic and/or vegan produce, products and food. My sister and I tried Cocogreen and Co. and we're glad we did. The owner is so nice and friendly and she told us a bit about their food and products. Everything is plant-based and healthy! She suggested we try the Taipei shirataki mushroom vegetable dumpling canton with sea weed kelp lettuce flakes and the quinoa king mushroom haianese so we got those for 250 pesos each. She also said the chickpea omelette is delicious so we're definitely trying that next time. Both were really good! Wasn't such a fan of the vegetable dumpling but the canton was super yummy! It reminds me of jap chae! The quinoa was so fresh. I adore mushrooms and the chili and oil dip/sauce goes perfectly with it. We also got to try their cheeses and OMG they taste great and they do taste like cheese! Other than meals, they also sell drinks, home and health products, native products and personal care products. They deliver as well and you can also find them at 2/F Picasso Hotel, Leviste St., Salcedo village, Makati City. Open from 11am - 6pm on weekdays. :)

I have a sweet tooth but I'm also trying to avoid bad carbs and bad sugar. I guess Coco Green had…read morethe same dilemma and wanted to do something about it. And thank God they did! Available online and at weekend markets such Salcedo and Legaspi, they have gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free sweets that definitely don't taste gluten-free, dairy-free or refined sugar-free. My favorite are their Lemon Snow cookies! Made with coco sugar and brown rice flour, I am sorry but I am definitely not sharing.

It surprised me that a healing centre was so closely located next to the american cemetery, but I wasn't really bother by it. I was bothered by the fact that it is located on random floor in an office building, made me feel like I was at work. The toilets are not airconditioned so if you have to make a number two you'll have to sweat it out. You might also need to sweat it out, because toilet paper is not always available here. The staff is very friendly and attentive. You feel like they really listen to your needs and do their best to quickly fulfill your demands, be it getting extra toilet paper.

I've found The Third Eye Wellness center when I was looking for a doula here in Manila. Mr. Google…read moretold me there would be a seminar entitled "Sacred Pregnancy and Concious Birth" set in this place and I had never heard about it before. I confess it was a little bit hard to find the venue at the first time. The taxi driver actually got lost. But all the stress was worth it, because the place is just amazing. It's a mix of a café, a spa and a center for courses and consultations. A quick view and we can conclude their have a holistic approach to health and wellness activities.The ambience is very relaxing and the courses they offer are really interesting and rare to find. By the way, the seminar facilitated by the doula Irina Otmakhova was fantastic. During the break I explored the lovely Chakra Café. They serve soups, pasta, salads and wraps - everything is prepared with organic fresh ingredients. Try the Vanilla Chai Latte, which is very flavorful. While I was taking the seminar with hubby, my mother pampered herself at the "Transcend Spa & Nails". She had one of their signature massages - a mix of swedish and shiatsu - and she loved it! I really intend to come back there in order to try the detox lymphatic drainage and the Ayurvedic massage. I highly recommend The Third Eye Wellness. Take a look at their course schedule so you can get the most of it.

Like Sally's Beauty Supply stores in the US, HBC carries a wide range of beauty products like hair…read morecolor, hair treatment solutions and other salon supplies. Because their products are mostly generic, salon-grade products rather than commercial consumer brands, you can get everything at much cheaper prices. Those who don't mind DIY beauty rituals at home will certainly find themselves spoiled for choices here. One of their more popular products are their hair dyes. As far as I could tell, they have three in-house line: the permanent regular, the low-ammonia range, and the crystal permanent. Each line has so many different shades and variations, but I did notice a lack of crazy colors like those sold by Manic Panic. A purchase of at least P300 entitles you to free services at selected stores, specifically free application of the products that you have bought. Most customers take advantage of this offer for free hair coloring application, which is a steal because even inexpensive salons charge about a thousand pesos for a simple dye job.
