Health and Hovid
Advertorial
I've been sent a bottle of "Anti-oxidants" by Hovid, the leading pharmaceutical manufacturers in Malaysia.
Quite frankly, throughout my life I've never taken health supplements before! When I was a kid maybe I did chew on those orangey robots vitamins, but that was it.
Mike, however, is always popping vitamin pills.
While I look at him, politely puzzled, he always just says "our bodies don't get enough vitamins".
I guess what he says has some truth in it, coz with all the junk we are eating nowadays, I think it is highly unlikely I am hitting my vitamins quota, and neither are you (if you are not some health nut).
Therefore, health supplements!!
This little bottle that they sent me says "Maxi Bio Absorption" and claims to have this thing called "Coenzyme Q10" in it. What? I don't understand what that is!
Fortunately trusty wikipedia is always around for things that matter (ahem therefore I'm on it, ahahaha!), and I was quite shocked to see how awesome this Q10 thing is!
Skipping the boring parts, in short, it helps:
Mitochondrial Disorders - Dunno what it is but I hope I don't get it.
Migraine headaches
Cancer - as a relief for cancer treatment side-effects and being investigated as a treatment.
Brain health
Cardiac arrest
Blood pressure
And even increased the lifespan of rats who take it!
It's like a miracle thing leh!!
But actually, this Q10 occurs naturally in our bodies (as well as in other things such as chicken leg/pork heart), just that most of the time we don't produce enough, or do not absorb enough of it.
This is where Q10 Supra-Bio comes in. It's absorption formula makes it easy for our bodies to absorb loads and loads of Q10!!
Wait, I hear something...
The pills want out!
These little yellow pills are chockful of Q10 goodness...
I'm gonna eat them!
Ahem.
Today I am going to teach you how to take your vitamins!!
Pose with your pills. No reason. Just do it.
Open bottle. Smell it a bit. Is it moldy?
Check expiry date. 1989? No? 2011? Ok good.
Pick your favourite pill of the lot!
Pop it into mouth! Don't bite, swallow!
Water to flush it down. Plus water is good for you!!
Task finished!
Show love or it won't work for you.
True story.

OK la, those were just lame excuses to cam-whore.
But seriously though... I just watched Money No Enough 2 (very sad show leh...), and those of you who have seen it are probably also reminded of the importance of health.
Taking care of one's body is really crucial and people should not take a back seat and take good health for granted.
It is true! If you can't be bothered to exercise, then health supplements should be taken - after all, they are so easy... No effort needed whatsoever.
(Unless of course you are in some desert and water is very scarce so you can't swallow your pills.... But then again people in deserts probably don't take health supplements.)
So, where do you go to if you want to buy some vitamins?
It is no secret I am a big fan of online shopping, and I can't believe now you can even buy health products online!
The steps are really easy - choose your product, register, pay, and if you are in Singapore, you will get your products within one day!
Now that's what I call awesome shipping!
If you have any enquiries, the best thing is, there is a live desk of Hovid staff who are more than willing to answer your questions immediately!
No more need more long emails and waiting for replies (only to realise the person misunderstood your question. Always happens to me).
Hovid's website is exceedingly easy to navigate, and their products range from Teas to Women's Nutrition to Cardiovascular... Got a lot la!
Of course, you have to be very careful and stringent when purchasing consumable items.
Who can forget the Slim10 incidents?!
Therefore, only purchase from the most trustworthy companies!
Hovid Berhad is a listed company based in KL, and has been around since 1945. It first started when Dr. Ho Kai Cheong founded Ho Yan Hor tea.
Familiar?
It's this one!
My dad and mom love it.
My dad and mom love it.
The company has since then grown into one of the leading pharmaceutical manufacturers in the world with over 300 products and distributing to over 40 countries.
I've personally had the pills and I am feeling fit as a fiddle!!
So get your much-needed vitamins today, you couch potato!
If not, get it for your elderly parents/grandparents, you unfilial person!
