Empowered health is what the popular TV host and Pinoy pop icon advocates together with OMRON, saying that health monitoring should be part of daily life,
woven into the regular family routine
For every Filipino parent, there’s no greater joy than seeing their family thrive especially in health. The Pinoy pop icon, actress, mother, and now health advocate Jolina Magdangal-Escueta knows this deeply, as she juggles her role as a devoted mom and public figure. She’s recently joined hands with OMRON Healthcare Philippines, the country’s leading provider of health monitoring and management solutions, as its newest brand ambassador to help families take control of their health with confidence. Together, they recently launched the “Be Sure” campaign to empower more Filipino households to make health an utmost priority.
As part of this campaign, Jolina shares practical, relatable tips for parents who want to protect what matters most: the well-being of their loved ones. Here are Jolina’s and OMRON’s top tips for making health part of everyday family life, using reliable health monitoring tools from OMRON for that extra peace of mind.
Make health a priority for the whole family
In the hustle of everyday life, it’s easy to let personal health take a backseat to work, errands, and caring for the household. But Jolina reminds parents that the best way to care for others is by first taking care of themselves. “When we take care of ourselves, mas kaya nating alagaan ang pamilya natin,” Jolina shares. This means setting an example for your children and spouse by prioritizing regular check-ups, healthy meals, and exercise. Monitoring our health shouldn’t just be something to worry about when something goes wrong; it should be part of daily life, woven into routines so that the entire family can enjoy good health together, she adds.
“Empowered health is what we’d like to advocate together with Jolina. Knowledge is power, so it’s important to know where you are health-wise, and have the right partners, doctors, devices, and data to come out with empowered health,” OMRON Healthcare Philippines General Manager Ben Abgulos said.
OMRON Blood Pressure Monitors are all designed to provide an easy, accurate way for every family member to keep track of their health at home. These devices are not only reliable and easy to use but also include ECG monitoring and AFib detection, ensuring families can monitor their heart health comprehensively. With these advanced features, families can make informed health decisions every day. It’s a simple yet impactful way to prioritize health without waiting for a problem to arise.
Encourage regular check-ups and daily monitoring
Health is an ongoing journey, and Jolina encourages families to monitor their health regularly at home. “Noong bata pa ako, nakikita ko na ‘yung lola ko and parents ko na ginagamit na nila ‘yung OMRON products, and hanggang ngayon na I have my own family, talagang I saw na mahalagang mayroon kang health devices sa bahay para kung may sintomas kang nararamdaman alam mo what to prepare and ready ka.”
For example, regularly using a weighing scale and body composition monitors is an essential practice for tracking weight and body composition regularly, helping detect potential health issues early, such as changes in body fat, muscle mass, or fluid retention, which may signal underlying health conditions. This simple habit can empower individuals and families to take proactive steps toward addressing health concerns before they become more serious.
Be proactive about cardiovascular health
Cardiovascular health is especially important for Filipino families, where stress and lifestyle factors can increase the risk of heart-related conditions. The OMRON Complete is an all-in-one device designed to help you keep an eye on your heart health and blood pressure. With this easy-to-use tool, you can measure your blood pressure and take an ECG (electrocardiogram) simultaneously. This helps you monitor irregular heart rhythms and get a fuller picture of your heart health. The OMRON Complete connects to the OMRON Connect app, so you can track your health data over time and share it with your doctor. This ensures you’re always on top of your heart health, from the comfort of your home.
Empower family members to take charge of their own health
Jolina believes in teaching children and teens the value of health from an early age. “When everyone in the family understands the importance of monitoring and caring for their own health, it builds a culture of well-being that supports every member in the long run,” she said.
Use accurate health monitoring tools
Having reliable health devices at home can make a significant difference. “Most of our blood pressure monitors are validated both locally and internationally,” explained OMRON Healthcare Philippines Sales Manager, Jim Ancla, “Our devices come equipped with advanced Japanese technology and are backed by a five-year warranty, reflecting our dedication to delivering only reliable, high-quality, and trusted health monitoring products to every family.” For BPM, OMRON Healthcare Philippines offer 5 years warranty while they offer 3 years warranty for nebulizers.
