In Case You Missed It: 25 Go Girl! Expo Merchants for Your Health & Fitness Needs

We know that being healthy and physically fit isn’t the easiest thing in the world, and takes hard work, commitment, and determination. A healthy lifestyle is needed now more than ever, though. A study conducted by the World Health Organization said that “more women in the Philippines are considered inactive whether in occupational, non-occupational, or leisure-related activities (WHO 2010).” Also, physical inactivity can contribute to coronary diseases, diabetes, and obesity.
