MY GULAYAN (Malunggay & Alugbati)
"If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere."A quote from Vincent Van Gogh that everyone should remember.

Nowadays 21st century learners doesn't realize the importance of gardening. And yes, there are still people who manage to plant in this world full of technologies. The main reason why we should plant is for our food security. According to powerhouse hydroponics, food security is having access to and being able to afford nutritious, safe food—and enough of it. This is a major concern for many families all over the world. Fortunately, urban farming contributes to greater food security. Isn't it good to pick some vegetables on your garden than to buy one into grocery store? I think having the gulayan on your own backyard is much better than buying some of it in expensive price on supermarkets. The benefits of malunggay leaves are it normalizes blood sugar level (diabetes), combating malnutritions, and anticancer (phytochemicals). The other one is alugbati leaves wherein it is rich in saponin, iron and Vitamins A (510 IU per cup of alugbati), B and C and is a rich source of soluble fiber, which helps digestion. Saponins act as phytochemicals, which can fight off cancer. The red variety of alugbati is a good source of xanthones, an antioxidant.

KA BEL "If helping the poor is a crime, and fighting for freedom is rebellion, then I plead guilty as charged." A quote from Crispin Beltran, a popular figure called “Ka Bel” by friends and fellow unionists. He quietly but firmly helped reshape the local labor movement into a force that would contribute in opposing the dictatorship. Ka Bel thought us to love our own country and its people. He sacrificed himself to be a voice of our laborers. We should protect our own rights because at the end of the day, we must stand for it. We must know our limitations but atleast fight for what is right and just. For me, if I were on his place I would do the same also. He symbolizes the voice of a laborer who's not being heard. A victim without a justice and a fighter without weapons. Photo Credits: bantayog.org
