According to a report published by WHO in 2017, liver disease deaths in the Philippines reached 8,401 or 1.36% of total deaths, making the country 119th in terms of the global ranking.

The prevalence of liver diseases in our society can be attributed to the convenient accessibility and availability of alc

LG breaks the norm with new innovative washing machines

This is known as “the second shift”, where the family structures are still holding on to traditional roles in gender equality with regard to the chores that the women are still expected to do. One of them is the laundry. This takes up so much time and energy that women often feel that they no longer have time to take care of themselves.
