Avoiding Stomach Stress

Have you ever experienced Stomach Stress? If you want to Avoiding Stomach Stress, try these tips below or even you can add an additional tip as well:

Never skip Breakfast - it is the most important meal of the day that gives you energy in doing activities and achieving your goals at school.

Eat nutritious snacks - Healthy snacks can keep your energy level high and also keeps your mind alert. You can eat whole grain breads or cereals and combine them with protein-rich snacks such as peanut butter or low-fat yogurt or cheese.

Limit High Fat Foods - In eating fast foods, choose pizza with half the cheese, a regular roast beef sandwich, baked potato, or green salad with reduced calorie dressing. In this way, you can avoid gaining fats which can also cause stress.

Limit Eating sweets - It can cause tooth decay. This may also lead to diabetes or other serious health problems in the future if you do not take precaution on eating sweet foods.

Lose Weight - Starving yourself will not help you lose weight. It might cause other serious health problems. The best way to lose weight is to exercise and eat a balanced diet.

Minimize Salad or Sauce dressings - If you put a lot of creamy dressing to your salad or the like, the calories and fat may equal or even exceed those of a burger and fries.

Don't drink alcoholic Beverages - It doesn't have any long term nutritional value and may cause other health problems in the future as well.

Drink Lots of Water - Our body needs water to regulate body temperature and to provide the means for nutrients to travel to all your organs. I always carry a bottled water with me whenever I am travelling especially under the hot sun.

Tentay Patis arrives in Cebu



Tentay Food Sauces Inc. remains committed to the same values that guided its founder — premium quality products at the best possible prices. With that, they chose to expand in Cebu in search of new markets and new opportunities.

In 1949, Ruperta D. Javier, an enterprising housewife concocted a fish sauce (patis) and fish paste (bagoong) from the fish hauls in the part of Navotas. Aware of the delicious taste of her sauces and proud of it, she simply named both “Tentay” which was how she was popularly called. Half a century later, her nickname became a byword for sauces and the products that carry her name has then increased from just 2, to capture the tastebuds of millions of people around the world – flavoring dishes in 11 countries spanning 4 continents.

The company’s strict quality control standards has enabled it to successfully penetrate other countries that exercise strict food importation, analysis and testing particularly on food additives and preservatives. Tentay Food Sauces Inc’s 1996 Golden Shell Award for Marketing Excellence is proof of the company’s continuous commitment to the same high-standards in food quality control set by its founder.

The Golden Shell Award are annually given by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to outstanding manufacturers of products or services that highlight the Filipino’s ingenuity, craftsmanship and business excellence.

Tentay Food Sauces Inc is the only food sauce company among a handful of awardees who won the highly-contested, prestigious Golden Shell Award for Product Quality Manufacturing Standard and Export Marketing Excellence – an affirmation of TFSI’s ongoing efforts to provide Filipinos and the rest of the world quality products at the best possible value.

Tentay Patis is the only Philippine Brand that passed the strict Japanese Standard in Sodium Benzolate, with not more than .005% or near zero preservative reading, qualifying it easily fot the U.S. Regualtions on fermented foods.

Tentay Food Sauces Inc currently offers a wide range of sauces for a variety of uses from marinating, basting, pouring to dipping. The company’s growing number of products attests to the company’s creativity and continuous product research and development in providing the best tasting sauces at popular prices.
Tentay Food Sauces Inc looks at the next fifty years with pride from its humble beginnings and hope in bringing to the world the unique taste of Filipino sauces – continuously pursuing its battlecry “Ibuhos ang sarap”.

Give the best love you can and cook up a feast with Tentay Patis. For delicious recipes online, you can visit the website: www.tentaysauce.com. Tentay Patis is available in all local leading supermarkets and is distributed in the Middle East, Hongkong, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, US, Hawaii and Guam.

Patis is a healthy alternative to and equally matches the use of ordinary table salt. Patis sauce has less of the ’salt’ but more of the flavor and aroma that makes favorite dishes even more tempting.

New Offering from Red Ribbon


I got chance to get a taste test on the New Offering from Red Ribbon Cebu which were the Crispy Chicken, Chocolate Fudge Cake and Black Forest Cake.

We tried the 1st course which was the Crispy Fried Chicken which was already chopped without any bones; marinated, battered and coated in seasoned flour are fried till it becomes extra crispy. And an add-on which makes this meal stand out in looks and taste, due to the sauce other than the usual Ketchup, gravy, mang tomas or toyo-suka combination.

Next was Red Ribbon’s Chocolate Fudge Cake which is sure to make any day delightful. Anything that's chocolate is truly to die for! Random Suggestion: Give in to a slice or two with a cup of brew, freshly steeped tea, or warm glass of milk.


The 3rd offering was described as the “taste of cherry orchard in high summer - with whipped cream”, the German dessert known as Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte, is embraced by the rest of the world in its more recognizable name: Black Forest Cake.

Quick History:
When Red Ribbon first opened its doors in 1978 in Tomas Morato, Quezon City, Red Ribbon’s Black Forest Cake is one of the first cakes that debuted on its shelves.

How much for the New Offering from Red Ribbon Cebu's New and Improved Treats?

  • Crispy Chicken is available with a slice of Red Ribbon cake and drink for only Php148.00 or ala carte for just Php90.00.
  • Chocolate Fudge Cake is available in regular size for Php495.00 and junior size for only Php295.00.
