The NowServing Podcast

Busting Filipino Health Myths (Part 1)

In this episode, we will be discussing Pinoy superstitious health beliefs that we’ve heard from our elders growing up. Such as: * “Lamig sa katawan” (Knots in the muscle caused by the cold) * “Nakakakinis ng mukha ang regla” (Using menstruation to wash your face clears your skin) * “Masama magplantsa ng damit kapag buntis” (It’s bad to iron clothes when one is pregnant) And so much more! Join us as we share our personal experience and if we think there is some truth to these myths. Note: These are myths so always go see a doctor for any health or medical concern you may have!
