Enjoy an Allergy-Free Active Lifestyle Like Iya Villania-Arellano with Claritin Reditabs

I was very young when I got stung by a bee and my airways started closing. I can still remember the panic of not being able to breathe and getting rushed to the hospital at 10PM. Thankfully, I was given medication that probably saved my life.

People with allergies, whatever the triggers are, get bogged down by attacks and it is not cool, especially when the condition gets life-threatening. Actress and TV host Iya Villania-Arellano shared that she, too, suffers from allergy but doesn't let it hamper her active lifestyle. 

Iya believes that allergies should not be an excuse to enjoy life. "The great outdoors is fun! There's so much you can discover about yourself, your loved ones, and the world when you're out there," the vivacious MTV VJ related during the press launch for Claritin Reditabs at Whitespace Makati.

Iya does not let allergy hamper her active lifestyle

This slim and energetic lady goes to the gym at least four times a week, does a mixture of core kinesis, Plana Forma, and Power Plate. And because she's married to a triathlete, Iya has also found herself training regularly to prepare for challenging triathlon events this year.

"This active lifestyle is a choice I had to make. After seeing how certain foods, combined with a sedentary lifestyle, affect my health and mood, I decided to take charge of my health [and] I definitely feel better than I did before," explained Iya.

Because she is still not immune to allergy attacks, Iya said she's doing "everything I can to not let allergies control what I can and cannot do. Once when I was on a trip, my allergy broke out because of pollen and I wasn’t able to act on it because I had no water with me," she revealed. "Allergy attacks strike even at home when I play with [my husband] Drew’s pet. Good thing, I am now always ready by bringing a pack of Claritin Reditabs wherever I go.”  

Loratadine (Claritin Reditabs), the same powerful Claritin millions have trusted for years, is now available in a new and revolutionary format. "Just peel off the foil and pop it in your mouth. This new and convenient format can be taken anytime, anywhere. No water needed!" described Iya. "This non-drowse variant orally dissolves in seconds and leaves you with a fresh minty taste. And the effects last for 24 hours."

For Iya, living a healthy and active lifestyle is possible in spite of allergy attacks. Her advise to allergy-sufferers? "Eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and of course, always be ready with a pack of New Claritin Reditabs."
