Take a Wellness Journey with Robinsons Supermarket's Wellness Festival and "I Love Wellness" Campaign



Living a healthy life is a choice. We can't just say we want to be fit. We have to work on it by making good food choices and making time to find physical activities to strengthen our bodies. I personally believe that and make sure my family eats balanced meals while also engaging in sports like running or swimming as forms of recreation.

This coming July, Robinsons Supermarket will be holding a Wellness Festival that aims to encourage everyone to start their journey to health and fitness. The month-long festivity will be filled with promos and activities that will help jumpstart peoples' interest to choose a healthy lifestyle.

#ILoveWellness
Yesterday at Robinsons Magnolia, an event area was set up where mall goers can check out booths of participating health and wellness brands. Nestle, Johnson & Johnson, Unilever, Del Monte, Abbott, Fonterra, and Unilab offered exciting activations and freebies that let shoppers enjoy and learn more about wellness.

The event was hosted by TV personality and fitness enthusiast Iya Villania-Arellano. Also present were sisters Rachel Alejandro and Barni Rennebeck of The Sexy Chef. The two demonstrated how to make three healthy and delicious recipes that are easy to make. I am excited to try them at home. I love their Detox Green Smoothie that uses kangkong leaves! 

Unilever's booth offered taste tests on yummy dishes made with Knorr products
What I personally appreciate about Robinsons Supermarket is its continuing commitment to help Filipinos make healthier choices through easier access to good food alternatives and making this as convenient at possible. As soon as you set foot inside a Robinsons Supermarket branch, zoom in directly to the unique Health and Wellness section where you can find products for varied nutrition needs to fit every lifestyle so you can make learned purchases.

I had my Body Mass Index checked at the Ensure booth and they said my body age is 18! :D
Observe also the color coded "Shop Smart" tags to help you easily find items based on their health benefits, nutritional content, and price discounts. For instance, healthy items come with green tags because they meet at least three (3) of the Food and Nutrition Research Institute's eight (8) nutritional attributes: low salt, low calorie, low fat, low in saturated fat, sugar free, low cholesterol, low sodium, source of protein, and source of dietary fiber. Good to know, right? 

ready to eat fruits are so convenient -- and healthy!
And then there's Robinsons Supermarket's own exclusive line of products called Healthy You, which offers nuts, oats, juices, olive oils, and many more. There's also the ready-to-eat station called Healthy Selections where your can find pre-packed healthy meals called Fit Cuisine or the make-your-own-salad station.

Aja Totanes, Robinsons Supermarket Marketing Manager, shared that they, at Robinsons Supermarket, believe that health and wellness is not a destination but a continuous journey. "And we want to be part of that journey in people's lives by being a trusted partner that they can always rely on for all their health and wellness needs."    

my hubby and I super love Tipco's broccoli juice!
On July 5, the wellness journey is made more fun with the 8th Wellness Fit & Fun Buddy Run at the Bonifacio Global City where 4,500 runners are expected to join in the 5km and 10km categories. This is the only buddy run in the Philippines that inspires participants to urge their loved ones to also take up an active lifestyle.

Brother and sister, Daniel and Vanessa Matsunaga, both active lifestyle advocates, jumpstarted the race to wellness by competing against each other in fun, health-related activities in Robinsons Magnolia. Can you guess who won? :)
