00:00This February, we are celebrating Philippine Heart Month

00:04as an important occasion to raise awareness about the health of our hearts.

00:11The purpose of this month is to provide information and to take steps

00:17to maintain the health of our hearts, which is the center of our bodies.

00:21And now Audrey, to give us important information about the activities

00:26and programs of the Philippine Heart Association this month,

00:29we have Dr. Myla Supe. Good morning and welcome to Rise and Shine Philippines.

00:34Good morning.

00:35Good morning.

00:36What is the importance of sharing information about the health of our hearts this February?

00:44It's very important because if not everyone knows,

00:49heart disease is the number one reason why people die.

00:55That's why we want to spread the education about heart health

01:03so that at least we can avoid death from heart disease.

01:09Alright, doctor, we want to know also the different programs and projects

01:13and activities that the Philippine Heart Association is doing

01:16so that more people can have a higher level of awareness

01:20when it comes to various diseases that can affect our hearts.

01:24We have a program called PHA Puso Muna.

01:28Okay.

01:29Each of the letters has a meaning.

01:33PHA means Pagkain Awasto, Huwag Manigarilyo, and Active Lifestyle.

01:42We will exercise.

01:45PUSO stands for Pressure.

01:48Blood pressure should be controlled.

01:50Drink maintenance medications.

01:53Sugar should be controlled.

01:55Obesity should be avoided.

01:57MUNA stands for Matulog Tayo Maayos.

02:03Usually, we don't remember how to sleep.

02:06It's important to sleep at least seven to nine hours a day.

02:09You have to actually avoid...

02:12MUNA, MUNA.

02:15You have to avoid...

02:19Sorry.

02:21Let's do the excerpt first.

02:23I keep forgetting.

02:25In MUNA, you have to sleep at least seven to nine hours a day.

02:30Yes.

02:31The view is actually to avoid smoking.

02:36Avoid smoking.

02:37Avoid cholesterol.

02:39And say no to alcohol.

02:42There.

02:43So, that's MUNA.

02:45These are important information for Filipinos.

02:48But how do you get this information to remote areas like barrios?

02:54We have councils in each region.

02:59We help spread this information.

03:01We have lay fora like what we're doing.

03:04The PHA goes around all the areas we can

03:09so that people will have knowledge

03:12regarding what needs to be done to maintain a healthy heart.

03:18This is a voluntary organization, right?

03:21This is a voluntary organization.

03:23Thank you so much, ma'am.

03:25I hope this will really help so many communities,

03:27especially in the far-flung areas.

03:30Especially in the areas that can be a focus for them.

03:35But we want to know,

03:37what are the main causes of heart disease in our country?

03:43And what can we do to avoid this?

03:46There are risk factors.

03:48We call this lifestyle.

03:50There are things that we can't avoid,

03:53like gender.

03:55Unfortunately, there's no such thing as gender equality in the heart.

03:58Because males have a higher risk for dying from a heart disease.

04:03It will go away when females have menopause

04:07because it's estrogen-related.

04:09Age.

04:10As we grow older, we get more sicker.

04:15But there are things like family history.

04:17You can't change that.

04:19But the easiest thing for us would be the things that we talked about.

04:23Smoking.

04:24Sedentary lifestyle.

04:26Making sure that our blood pressure is controlled.

04:28Making sure that our sugar is controlled,

04:30as well as the cholesterol is controlled.

04:32So those are within our reach.

04:35That's what we can avoid.

04:37Even now, we're telling people not to smoke.

04:40It's really zero.

04:42The World Health Organization.

04:44How about vaping?

04:45Vaping is also bad.

04:46Before, we thought that if you smoke,

04:49you might stop smoking because there's vape.

04:55Unfortunately, studies have shown that vaping is worse than cigarette smoking.

05:02So currently, we're telling people not to smoke,

05:06and not to vape.

05:08And we're also saying zero alcohol.

05:11Because the World Health Organization is saying

05:14that it's not true that alcohol can help.

05:18Now, it's zero.

05:20So zero alcohol for those who have never drunk before.

05:24Audrey is shocked by what she's hearing.

05:27Every Friday is one night.

05:29Every Friday night is one night.

05:31So Audrey, you have to stop that.

05:33For those who are already drinking,

05:36you have to moderate it.

05:38For those who have never started,

05:41don't start now.

05:43Okay.

05:44You mentioned age, Ma'am.

05:46So, I'm not a proffee.

05:50Because I know that I have enough sleep.

05:52I exercise and my diet is good.

05:55I don't go for a check-up.

05:57What age should I go for a check-up even if I don't feel anything?

06:01Actually, we don't have evidence to say that you're old.

06:05But studies say that when you reach the age of 40,

06:10you should go for a check-up.

06:12For us, the early atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is about 55.

06:18So if you die before 55,

06:21it's bad for your family.

06:23So, the earlier that you actually,

06:25especially if you have bad family history,

06:28you should have a regular physical examination.

06:32So that you know your number.

06:34If you're congenial,

06:36you think you're healthy,

06:37you just think that.

06:38Because you didn't have a check-up.

06:40So, you really need to monitor it.

06:42We're the ones who like to self-diagnose.

06:46Maybe that's why you don't go for a check-up, Audrey.

06:48I don't go for a check-up.

06:50I don't go for a check-up.

06:51Why do you need that?

06:52Maybe, Doc, I'll just ask again.

06:54What's the most important message for your Philippine hearts?

06:57Know your numbers.

06:59Okay.

07:00See a doctor.

07:02Know what your risk is for a heart condition.

07:06And let's treat the sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure.

07:10Know what you have.

07:12So that you know how to stop it.

07:14There.

07:15Thank you very much for all the information that you shared with us this morning

07:18about the programs and activities of the Philippine Heart Association,

07:22the Philippine Heart Month.

07:24Dr. Mayra Supe, thank you very much.

07:25Thank you, Doc.
