| Ang bawat pisong natitipid natin mula sa pag-iwas sa bisyo ay direktang bumabalik bilang ginhawa para sa pamilya. Quitting smoking or va**ng isn't just a massive win for your lungs. It’s an instant promotion for your wallet!

As we celebrate National Cancer Survivor Day and National No Smoking Month this June, we honor the strength of those who fought the hardest battles, while committing to protecting our own health. Choosing a bisyo-free life today is the most powerful preventative step you can take to shield yourself and your loved ones from the painful journey of smoking-related illnesses like lung cancer.

The Science & Numbers: Let's look at the math. Based on the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) RR 16-2024, the official floor price for a single 2ml v**e pod is ₱193.20. If you consume just one pod every two days, you are spending roughly ₱36,000 a year on ni****ne aerosol. The same is true for ci******es, with prevailing prices here in Cordillera ranging from ₱145 to ₱203 per pack.

Aside from saving your future self and family from the severe financial and emotional stress of cancer and chronic diseases, stepping away from smoking and va**ng protects your family from the hidden dangers of second-hand and third-hand smoke and aerosol.

By redirecting that budget toward proper nutrition, education, and health investments, you significantly improve your household financial security. Think about what that extra breathing room could do for the people you love.

Kumonsulta: Ready to reclaim your health and your savings? Our local Health Center is ready to guide you step-by-step with free smoke-free counseling.

| Ang kalsada ay para sa lahat. When you smoke or v**e while walking, the people behind you don't have a choice but to breathe it in too. 🚭

As we kick off this May 31 and celebrate National No Smoking Month this coming June, let's remember that protecting our health also means respecting our shared spaces.

According to the WHO, there is no safe level of exposure to second-hand smoke and v**e aerosol. It contains toxic chemicals that linger in the air, especially in crowded walkways. Breathing in second-hand smoke v**e also exposes others to ni****ne and fine particles that can irritate the lungs.

𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄? Under Executive Order No. 26, smoking is prohibited in public places, including sidewalks and walkways. This was expanded to va**ng through Executive Order No. 106. Local ordinances in many areas also strictly penalize smoking and va**ng in shared areas to protect everyone's right to clean air.

Let’s keep our paths fresh! Choose NOW to start your journey toward a healthier, tobacco-free and v**e-free life.

| Real love and responsibility mean being brave enough to have open conversations. Sexual wellness shouldn't be hidden in the dark, it belongs in our homes, our relationships, and our community.

Let's replace judgment with facts and understand that taking care of your reproductive health is a normal part of life.

The Science: U=U stands for Undetectable = Untransmittable. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), modern Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) suppresses the virus to levels so low that it becomes invisible to standard tests. When the viral load stays undetectable, it is medically impossible to transmit the virus to partners. This means individuals living with HIV can live long, healthy, and full lives, raise families, and fully eliminate the risk of transmission. Early detection is the key to unlocking this lifelong protection.

Additionally, Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is available as an extra prevention option. PrEP is a highly effective medicine used by HIV-negative individuals to proactively reduce the risk of acquiring HIV.

Kumonsulta: Prioritizing your sexual wellness is a brave and normal part of taking care of yourself. Our local health centers are always open to provide free, safe, and confidential reproductive health tools, condoms, and counseling.

| 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸-𝘁𝗼-𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗛𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁𝘀!
It was a day full of wellness for DOH-CHD-Cordillera! The day kicked off with the monthly weight and blood pressure monitoring for the implementation of the “Bawas Timbang, Ayos ang Presyon Project.” To double up on those healthy habits, employees turned up the energy at 3 PM for a lively afternoon Zumba session!

From tracking vital stats to hitting the dance floor, the team took well-deserved breaks from their desks to move, groove, and prioritize health. It was the perfect routine-breaker to share some laughs and end the work week in high spirits.

To all our fellow employees: Don't let a busy desk keep you from taking care of your body. Whether it's tracking your monthly health stats or taking a few minutes to stretch and move, let’s actively build a healthy workplace together!

Remember to keep moving, recharge your batteries, and treat yourself with the care you deserve.
