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.
