MANILA – Four out of ten Filipinos are considered to be overweight primarily due to lack of exercise and poor eating habits as revealed by the 2016 Healthy Living Index Survey conducted by the AIA Group. Compared to 15 of its Asia-Pacific neighbors, the Philippines ranked 9th in terms of wellness.
To combat this growing concern, some companies strive to promote healthy and active lifestyles in order to break these unhealthy habits. One such company is Philam Life who aims to commit itself to promoting a healthier and more active Filipino community. Through its Corporate Solutions arm, Philam Life became the official life insurer of the country’s biggest and most anticipated footrace, the 40th National Milo Marathon.
All Milo Marathon participants get life insurance coverage, accidental death and disability and accidental medical reimbursement benefits during the run which kicked off last June in Dagupan and will have several legs around the country, ending in December with the National Finals at Iloilo.
Philam Life is helping Filipinos attain total wellness not just by being financially prepared, but also by staying active “so they can live longer, healthier and better lives,” as mentioned by the company’s CEO Ariel Cantos.
