We love fruit juices at home. We do drink carbonated drinks on occasions but our 3-year old son  is not allowed to do so. We are thankful that he has been making healthy choices in his drinks and food.

I would have loved to be part for of the Rauch Happy Day Tour but I couldn’t make it because of a conflict in schedule. With the venue being on the other side of the city from my meeting, I could not attend both events even if I run very fast (how I wish I can run THAT fast. hahaha)!

I’m glad to know that there’s a bill – House Bill (HB) 4021 or Healthy Beverage Options Act that will regulate the availability of beverages to children in schools. HB 4021 says that soft drinks, drinks containing caffeine and additional sweeteners, and artificially flavored juice or fruit-based drinks with less than 50% real fruit juice be not provided or sold in schools.  I hope this will be strictly implemented as there’s a trend in rising obesity rates for school-aged children.

To all the kids and moms who have been part of the event, I’m sure by now you know the many benefits of drinking 100% fruit juice.  To all those who did not make it, read more about the Every Day Is a Happy Day program and the I Love Healthy Juices campaign. I’m crossing my fingers that I will make it to the next event, if ever there will be another one.

Pres Release:

A sip of Happy Day 100% fruit juice is enough to make the day much brighter! A school tour program, “Every Day Is a Happy Day”, aims to educate students and the faculty about the many benefits of drinking 100% fruit juice.

In an effort to support the Healthy Beverages Options Act 4021 of the Philippines, Happy Day’s “I Love Healthy Juices” signature campaign aims to collect 5,000 signatures from 10 schools all over Greater Metro Manila and nearby provinces. To date, 2,058 signatures have already been collected.

House Bill 4021 or Healthy Beverage Options Act insists on the need for the regulation of the availability of beverages to children in schools. The proposed statute provides that all schools shall educate the students in the effects of the consumption of unhealthy food and drinks, including sugar, in the body. HB 4021 seeks that softdrinks, drinks containing caffeine and additional sweeteners, and fruit-based drinks with less than 50% real fruit juice be not provided or sold in schools, while encouraging the selling or providing of water, fruit juice with at least 50% real fruit juice content, low- or –fat-free milk and calcium-fortified milk.

The “Every Day Is a Happy Day” program which started in July has gone to Create and Learning Paths School, Multiple Intelligence International School, Miriam College – Lower School, Makati Hope Christian School, and De La Salle Zobel, and very recently to Immaculate Heart of Mary College.

The school tour is an informative, entertaining and interactive experience for the students to learn more about 100% fruit juices. An audio visual presentation highlights the process of creating fruit juices, from harvesting the fruits to packing. A Nutrition Talk on the different types of juices and its health benefits is facilitated and then, MAD Science Philippines, the country’s premier provider of dynamic science through educational entertainment, showcases several experiments to highlight the effect of drinking carbonated drinks or soda to the body. After the show, everyone gets to try the Happy Day juice variants.

With the growing awareness for health and wellness, consumers have become savvier, preferring food and beverage options that promote good health, are made with less preservative, and are culled from nature’s bounties. Happy Day provides the perfect healthy alternative to calorie-laden carbonated drinks and artificially-flavored fruit juices.

Each liter of Happy Day 100% Orange contains the juice of about 2.5 kilos of sun-ripened oranges. This not only guarantees healthy highlights of drinking, but it also covers the daily requirement of vitamin C with one glass. Vitamin C is one of the most important vitamins for its ability to transport “oxygen and hydrogen”. It functions as a catcher of free radicals, improves the absorption of iron in the intestines, and protects against cancer, arteriosclerosis and heart attack, among others. Aside from Vitamin C, B-vitamins, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorous, beta-carotene, cell defense substances, bioflavonoids, and selenium are found in every glass of Happy Day.

Choose among these six Happy Day 1L variants: Orange, Apple, Cranberry, Multivitamin, Orange Juice Bits, and Tomato. Kids will surely enjoy Happy Day 200ml in Apple and Orange flavors.
