BOOK SUMMARY:
Sophia Vabueretti grew up with her grandmother in Forest Green, a remote town in the Great Archipelago of Philipdomia somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. When she turned thirteen, she moved to her parents' house in the big city where she has to share a home with her two siblings, Alex and Nadine. 

In the summer before her senior year of high school, an accident causes her to lose her memory, and also causes her to regret forever having lost a high school romance. Her diary is the only link she has to her childhood memories and first love. As she struggles with both grief and loss, an unexpected encounter with a strange creature from the mystical Forest of Evergreen changes her life forever. Her life becomes even more complicated, tangled among three equally intense webs of love, death, and life. 
The Forest of Evergreen: Lost in the Wilderness will transport you to a magical place where a new kind of love and unfamiliar adventures await.

Herbal Medicines: Boon or Bane?

The Philippine Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently warned the public of three “voodoo” anti-cancer products by the name of Aro Baro Churo Organic Tea, Aro Guyabano Tea, and Aro Baro Churo Guyabano Capsules. These products are not registered with FDA either as herbal medicines or food supplements. DOH-FDA Advisory No. 2013-004, stated that these products are now distributed throughout the country with boasts that they are 100,000 times stronger than chemotherapy and that they contain Adriamycin that can kill cancer cells, among other claims. Acting on the issue, the FDA with the help of local government units implemented measures such as strict monitoring and on the spot inspections to remove these products from the market nationwide.

How to spot fake medicines during COVID-19 pandemic

August 3, 2020 The COVID-19 crisis has fueled the surge of not only fake face masks and other medical products related to the pandemic but also counterfeit medicines, especially those over-the-counter (OTC) or sold without prescription. As COVID-19 cases continue to increase globally, so are the counterfeiters who are exploiting the growing gaps in the market. Recently, the Philippine Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released an advisory against the purchase and use of counterfeit drugs. A counterfeit drug is a fake drug. Counterfeit drugs are those with the wrong or contaminated ingredients, with the correct ingredients but wrong amounts, or without the active ingredients. They can also be mislabeled, and can apply to both generic and branded products. In addition, they are not registered with the FDA and did not go through validation and standard tests to confirm their quality, safety, and efficacy.
