What’s New
You knew very well that there are numerous health advantages to physical
fitness. Regular exercise and physical activity promotes strong muscles and bones. It
improves respiratory, cardiovascular health, and overall health. Staying active can also
help you maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease,
and reduce your risk for some cancers.

In other words, staying active is a crucial part of maintaining good health and
wellness. As many of our daily routines remain restricted during the coronavirus
pandemic, it can be difficult to find the motivation to exercise. With the challenges of
staying or working from home and limited access to fitness facilities, you may be finding it
hard to stick to work out routine.

5
 Maintaining an exercise routine at home can seem more like a ‘should’ than a ‘want to’
at the moment. However, even a small amount of activity can make a huge difference to
how well you think and feel. In fact, exercise is one of the most powerful
tools we have for staying physically and mentally healthy.

Lets find out some of the benefits of physical activity.

• Improve your memory and brain function (all age groups)

• Protect against many chronic diseases.
• Aid in weight management.
• Lower blood pressure and improve heart health.
• Improve your quality of sleep.
• Reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.
• Combat cancer-related fatigue.
• Improve joint pain and stiffness.
• Maintain muscle strength and balance
• Increase life span

What is it
Physical Activity is bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles. It requires
energy expenditure and produce progressive health benefits. It requires only a low
to moderate intensity of effort. By contrast, it implies a level of activity that is lower
than required to maintain good health.

Examples:
✓ Taking the stairs instead of the elevators and/or escalators
✓ Doing Household chores
✓ Walking to and from work
✓ Washing the laundry by hands instead of using washing machine
✓ Gardening
✓ Dancing

Exercise is a type of physical activity that requires planned, structured, and repetitive
bodily movement to improve or maintain one or more components of physical fitness.
It is usually viewed as an activity that requires a vigorous-intensity effort.
Examples:
strength training aerobics
walking running

swimming cycling

Among the benefits of regular physical activity and exercise significantly reduced risks
for developing heart disease (any condition affecting the heart), stroke (a serious life-
threatening medical condition that happens when the blood supply to part of the brain is
cut off), type 2 diabetes (a common condition that causes the level of sugar (glucose) in the
blood to become to high), colon cancer (a type of cancer that begins in the large intestine)
and breast cancer (a disease in which cells in the breast grow out of control), high blood
pressures (also known as hypertension, is blood pressure that is higher than normal), and

6
osteoporotic fractures (are a result of osteoporosis, a condition in which the bones become
more fragile due to bone deterioration or low bone mass).
It is also important for health of muscles, bones, and joints, and it seems to reduce
symptoms of depression and anxiety, improve mood, and enhance one’s ability to perform
daily tasks.
According to the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention, living the
four (4) health habits can reduce your risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease,
cancer, and diabetes by almost 80 percent:
1. Get at least 30 minutes of daily moderate-intensity physical activity.
2. Do not smoke.
3. Eat healthy food (ample fruits and vegetables, whole grain products, and low meat
consumption).
4. Maintain a body mass index (BMI) less than 30.
Some people are asking if physical fitness necessary for those who are active. Many
adult assumed that children are well and fit as long as they do not complain about their
health. There are who lives a sedentary life-style, become obese, demonstrate early signs of
heart disease and exercise in a minimal level, yet, adults look at it the other way. They
believe that only very few children die of obesity or heart disease, thus, giving little cause
for concern. Unfortunately the basic patterns of life are established during the early years
of school life, leaving children a legacy of an unfit life-style that will burden them
throughout life.
Therefore, maintaining a physically fit body is a must to everyone, boys, girls, the
persons with disabilities, obese, young and old alike. Thus, activities like dance and sports
demand a certain amount of inherent skill which develops and improves a person to be
physically fit.

 What’s New
Being a Filipino, it is a must that we know the folk dances of our country. It
brings a sense of pride to have knowledge of our own dances that represent our cultural
identity. These dances allow you to use your body and help you to be physically active as
you engage in dancing as a physical activity.

What is Folk Dance? Folk Dance refers to the dances created and performed
collectively by the ordinary people. The term usually includes: so called “ethnic dances”
such as those of the cultural community in the Cordillera, in Mindoro, Palawan, Sulu, and
Mindanao; and the rural or lowland Christian dances, among the groups, like the
Ilokanos, Tagalog, Pampangueῆo, Bicolano, Cebuano, Ilongo, and Waray.

What Is It
The Tinikling is the national dance of the Philippines, and is a traditional folk
dance which originates from the Spanish colonial era. The dance imitates the movement of
the tikling birds as they dodge bamboo traps set by rice farmers. Dancers mimic
the tikling bird’s grace and agility by dancing between large bamboo poles.

The Tinikling is one of the oldest dances from the Philippines, and originated in the
islands of Leyte in the Visayas. According to legend, the Tinikling was started by people
who worked in the paddies and farms of the Philippines. When the Spaniards conquered
the Philippines, the natives were sent to the haciendas (plantations, mines, or factories)
and lost control of their land. To please the King of Spain, the natives had to work all day,
and worked farms and paddies for nearly 400 years (1500 – 1898).

12
 What Is It
Festival dances are cultural dances performed to the strong beats of percussion
instruments by a community of people sharing the same culture usually done in honor of
a Patron Saint or as a thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest. Festival dances may be
religious or secular in nature. But the best thing about festivals is that they add to merry-
making and festivities of a place where they are celebrated, the reason why they are called
festival after all. Festival dances draw the people’s culture by portraying the people’s way
of life through movements, costumes and implements inherent to their place of origin.

Filipinos do festivals primarily to celebrate unity amidst diversity of cultures. The

value of industry and hard work that brings about bountiful yield is also one of the
reasons of the celebration. Festivals have been a consistent crowd-drawing activity which
in a way uplifts the economy of one’s place due to its tourism and entertainment value.

Whatever festival we celebrate, be it in honor of a religious icon, culture, tradition,

beliefs, or industry, festival dances articulate the unity of the Filipinos that amidst
economic, social, environmental, cultural and political challenges remain resilient and
together they stand as one nation.

Some of the famous festivals in the country include:

SINULOG FESTIVAL
Sinulog is held in celebration of one of the country’s most famous historic relics:
the Santo Niño de Cebú. This was the statue of the baby Jesus that was handed to the Rajah
Humabon of Cebu by the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan in 1521.

Sinulog comes from the Cebuano word “sulog” which means “like water current
movement” which depicts the forward-backward step of Sinulog dance. Sinulog Festival is
held every third Sunday of January.

DINAGYANG FESTIVAL
The Dinagyang is a religious and cultural festival in Iloilo City, Philippines held on the fourth
Sunday of January, or right after the Sinulog In Cebu and the Ati-Atihan in Aklan. It is held
both to honor the Santo Niño and to celebrate the arrival on Panay of Malay settlers and the
subsequent selling of the island to them by the Atis.

Dinagyang is Iloilo City’s version of the Ati-Atihan festival widely celebrated not only
in Panay Island but also in other parts of the country. It may not be as ancient as the one
in Kalibo in Aklan Province, but is definitely impressive in choreography and striking in
terms of the various attires worn by participating tribes which reflect the ingenuity,
craftsmanship and artistry of the Ilonggos.

An Ilonggo term for revelry or merrymaking, Dinagyang was coined in 1977 by Ilonggo
writer/broadcaster Pacifico Sudario to describe the riotous celebration. Prior to this,
Dinagyang was labeled “Iloilo Ati-Atihan” to differentiate it from other Ati-Atihan festivals.

ATI-ATIHAN FESTIVAL
One of the most colourful festivals in the Philippines, held in Kalibo, the capital city of
the province of Aklan. Originally falling on the Feast Day of Santo Niῆo (the infant Jesus),
the celebration combines Christian and non-Christian elements.

13
 Ati-Atihan means “to make like Atis.” During the present day festival, revellers cover
their skin with soot and wear Ati costumes that are patchworks of coconut shells, feathers,
and fronds. They converge on the main streets and around the town plaza and, to the beat
of drums, shout “Hala Bira” (‘Go on and fight!’), pound their spears and repeatedly dance a
two step dance. From a distance, the celebrants look like a solid mass of people lurching
and swinging in a frenzied rhythm.

MASSKARA FESTIVAL
The Masskara festival was first conceived in 1980 to add color and gaiety to the
Bacolod City's celebration of its Charter Day anniversary, on 19 October. Masks are the
order of the day at the Masskara parade, as brightly-costumed men and women dance and
prance in the streets.

Masskara is derived from the words “mass” meaning “many”and “kara” meaning “faces,”
thus calling it the Festival of Many Faces. Known as the City of Smiles, Bacolod parades
many smiling masks worn by the locals during this festival in the Philippines.

Masskara Festival is alternately known as the 'festival of smiles' due to the tradition of the
masks that the people wear donning smiles to represent the message of happiness. Because
of the festival, Bacolod is also designated as the 'City of Smiles'

BANGUS FESTIVAL
Bangus Festival is one of Philippines’ tastiest celebrations, starting from the third
of April until the end of the month. The festival is held in the beautiful city of Dagupan in
the province of Pangasinan. The festival is held in celebration of the city’s thriving
aquaculture, specializing in bangus or milkfish. Every year, tourists from all walks of life
make their way to the city to tantalize their taste buds with this unique delicacy.

Dagupan is a city located on the Lingayen gulf in the province of Pangasinan in Luzon
and is one of the top producers of milkfish or bangus in the province. Bangus is considered
the tastiest milkfish in the world.

The highlight of the Dagupan Bangus Festival or Philis the grilling of thousands of
bangus and followed by a street party. About 10,000 bangus in 1000 grills were grilled along
Fernandez Avenue which is a major street of Dagupan during one world record-breaking
celebration.

KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL
The Kadayawan Festival is an annual festival in the city of Davao in the Philippines. Its
name derives from the friendly greeting "Madayaw", from the Dabawenyo word meaning
good, valuable, superior or beautiful. The festival is a celebration of life, a thanksgiving for
the gifts of nature, the wealth of culture, the bounties of harvest and serenity of living.
Previously, this festival held in the third week of August every year which was highlighting
the 11 tribes of Davao City. In 2019, the celebration was extended and held from 2 to 31
August. In 2020, Kadayawan Festival was celebrated from 10 to 17 August.

MORIONES FESTIVAL
The Moriones is a lenten festival held annually on Holy Week on the island of
Marinduque, Philippines. The "Moriones" are men and women in costumes and masks
replicating the garb of biblical Roman soldiers as interpreted by local folks. The Moriones

14
tradition has inspired the creation of other festivals in the Philippines where cultural
practices is turned into street festivals.

THE FEAST OF OUR LADY OF PEŇAFRANCIA

The feast of Our Lady of Peñafrancia is celebrated on the third Saturday of
September in Naga City, Bicol. The feast day is preceded by a novena, nine days of prayer,
in honor of the Virgin. On the first day, the image of the Virgin, a copy of the Madonna in
Peñafrancia, Spain, is brought from its shrine to the Naga Cathedral where the novena is
held. On the last day, the image is returned to her shrine following the Naga River route.
The colorful evening procession is lit by thousands of candles from devotees in boats
escorting the image. When the barge reaches its destination, the devotees shout "Viva la
Virgen" (Long live the Virgin!) and the image is brought back in a procession to the
cathedral.

PAHIYAS FESTIVAL
Every May 15, the townsfolk of Lucban, Quezon, wear their homes with natural
products, vegetables and brilliant kiping (a leaf-formed wafer made of rice and colored with
food shading) in festival of the Pahiyas Festival. The word 'pahiyas' was gotten from the
word 'payas', which implies design or to enrich. The explanation for such practice traces
all the way back to the fifteenth century, when ranchers used to offer their harvests at the
foot of Mount Banahaw. After some time, they brought their ranch produce at the
congregation out of appreciation for the town's benefactor holy person – St. Isidore the
Laborer, who is the benefactor holy person of ranchers, workers and laborers.

PANAGBENGA FESTIVAL
Panagbenga Festival is a month-long yearly flower festival celebration happening in
Baguio, the summer capital of the Philippines. The term is of Malayo-Polynesian origin,
meaning "Season of Blooming". The celebration, held during the long stretch of February,
was made as a recognition for the city's blossoms and as an approach to ascend from the
demolition of the 1990 Luzon seismic tremor. The celebration incorporates skims that are
covered for the most part with blossoms similar to those utilized in Pasadena's Rose Parade.
The celebration likewise incorporates road moving, introduced by artists clad in blossom
propelled ensembles that is enlivened by the Bendian, an Ibaloi dance of festivity that came
from the Cordillera locale. Beside financial lifts from the travel industry, the celebration
additionally helped the more youthful age of native individuals to rediscover their way of
life's old practices. The native individuals was first vigilant with government-drove the travel
industry in view of the danger that they will meddle or change their networks' ceremonies.

LANZONES FESTIVAL
Lanzones Festival, a yearly occasion set apart in the long stretch of October, is a four-
day celebration held to praise abundance harvests of the Lanzones organic product.

Lanzones, otherwise called langsats, is a sort of tree in the Mahogany gathering of

plants, and whose palatable organic products are a top choice for some individuals in the
Philippines.

The Lanzones natural product is a significant wellspring of the Camiguin Islands' job
and it is for the yearly collect that they commend this Thanksgiving Day. Houses, carriages,
road shafts and even individuals are embellished with lanzones and lanzones leaves.
Townsfolk dance in happiness desert in recognition of the legend that a delightful, obscure
lady took from its previous harsh flavor to leave just its delectable, sweet taste.

 What’s New
All age group are affected by Non-Common Communicable Diseases although
these are often associated with older age group. The myth that the poor are less at risk
to develop non-communicable diseases (NCD) such as diabetes or cardiovascular
diseases is slowly disappearing. Previously seen as the adverse effects of an influent
lifestyle. The fact is that debilitating effects of NCDs and related death often can be
prevented if their environmental causes such as unhealthy conditions or behavioral
triggers such as bad eating habits or substance abused are addressed.
In this lesson we need to correct the myth and fallacy about Non-Common
Communicable Diseases (NCD).

Myth-Is a worse form of fallacy because it is not true or correct.

 Lesson Prevention and Control of
3 Non-Communicable Diseases
What is it
Practice ways to prevent and control noncommunicable diseases.

What’s In
In the previous lesson, we discussed MYTH, FALLACY and FACT about the different
kinds of noncommunicable diseases. Write below a brief statement on your learning
about NCD’s.

What’s New:
Noncommunicable Diseases (NCD’s) mostly cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes,
and chronic respiratory diseases are the top killers in the South-East Asia Region
which includes the Philippines. Each year, these diseases claim at around 8.5 million lives.

The four ‘major’ NCDs are caused to a large extent by four modifiable behavioral risk
factors: tobacco use, unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity, and harmful use of
alcohol. NCDs disproportionately affect the poor, impoverish families, and place a growing
burden on health-care systems.

Prevention and Control of NCD’s

1. Cardiovascular Diseases
a. Control your blood pressure. High blood
pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease. It
is important to get your blood pressure checked
regularly - at least once a year for most adults, and metropolis.com
more often if you have high blood pressure.
b. Stay at a healthy weight. Being overweight or having obesity can increase your risk
for heart disease.
c. Eat a healthy diet. Try to limit saturated fats, foods high in sodium, and added
sugars. Eat plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, and whole grains.

25
 d. Get regular exercise. Exercise strengthens your heart and improving your circulation.
It can also help you maintain a healthy weight and lower cholesterol and blood
pressure.
e. Limit alcohol. Drinking too much alcohol can raise your blood pressure. It also adds
extra calories, which may cause weight gain.
f. Do not smoke. Cigarette smoking raises your blood pressure and puts you at higher
risk for heart attack and stroke.
g. Manage stress. Stress is linked to heart disease in many ways. It can raise your blood
pressure.
h. Manage diabetes. Having diabetes doubles your risk of diabetic heart disease.
i. Make sure that you get enough sleep. If you do not get enough sleep, you raise your
risk of high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes. Those three things can raise your
risk for heart disease. Most adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night.

2. Diabetes
a. Losing weight and keeping it off. Weight
control is an important part of diabetes
prevention. You may be able to prevent or delay
diabetes by losing 5 to 10 percent of your
current weight. And once you lose the weight, it
is important that you do not gain it back.

b. Following a healthy eating plan. It is

important to reduce the amount of calories you metropolis.com
eat and drink each day, so you can lose weight
and keep it off.
c. Get regular exercise. Exercise has many health benefits, including helping you to
lose weight and lower your blood sugar levels.
d. Do not smoke. Smoking can contribute to insulin resistance, which can lead to type
2 diabetes. If you already smoke, try to quit.
e. Talk to your health care provider to see whether there is anything else you can do
to delay or to prevent type 2 diabetes. If you are at high risk, your provider may
suggest that you take one of a few types of diabetes medicines.

3. Chronic Respiratory Diseases

a. Do not smoke. Cigarette smoking is the major cause of lung cancer and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis and
emphysema. Cigarette smoke can narrow the air passages and make breathing more
difficult. It causes chronic inflammation, or swelling in the lung, which can lead to
chronic bronchitis. Over time cigarette smoke destroys lung tissue and may trigger
changes that grow into cancer.
b. Avoid Exposure to Indoor Pollutants
Secondhand smoke, chemicals in the home and workplace, and radon all can cause
or worsen lung disease. Make your home and car smoke free.
c. Minimize Exposure to Outdoor Air Pollution
The air quality outside can vary from day to day and sometimes is unhealthy to
breathe. Knowing how outdoor air pollution affects your health and useful strategies
to minimize prolonged exposure can help keep you and your family well.
d. Prevent Infection
A cold or other respiratory infection can sometimes become very serious.
26
 e. Get Regular Check-ups
Regular check-ups help prevent diseases, even when you are feeling well. This is
especially true for lung disease, which sometimes goes undetected until it is serious.
f. Exercise
Whether you are young or old, slender, or large, able-bodied, or living with a chronic
illness or disability, being physically active can help keep your lungs healthy.
4. Cancer

a. Quit Smoking and Using Tobacco

Quitting smoking has a direct effect on your risk of cancer. Tobacco contains
harmful chemicals that damage your cells and cause cancer growth.
b. Protect Yourself from UV Rays
The ultraviolet radiation in sunlight can cause changes to your skin. The sun's rays
(UVA and UVB) damage skin cells. These harmful rays are also found in tanning
beds and sunlamps. Sunburns and many years of sun exposure can lead to skin
cancer.

c. Get Regular Exercise

Exercise is healthy for all, for many reasons. Studies have shown that people who
exercise seem to have a lower risk for certain cancers. Exercise can help you keep
your weight down.

d. Eat Healthy Foods

Good food choices can build up your immune system and may help protect you from
cancer.

What I Have Learned

Things to remember in prevention and control of NCD’s and to have a total
HEALTHY LIFE:
• Exercise Regularly
• Eat Healthy
• Reduce Stress
• Drink Plenty of Water

On a separate sheet of paper, create a 1 week diary on practices you have made to prevent
and control noncommunicable diseases.
27
Lesson Prevention and Control of
4 Non-Communicable Diseases
What Is It
- demonstrates self-monitoring to prevent noncommunicable diseases
- promotes programs and policies to prevent noncommunicable diseases
- identifies agencies responsible for non-communicable disease prevention
and control

What’s In
On the space provided below, give a few practices and ways to prevent and
control noncommunicable diseases.

What’s New
Department of Health

It’s mission is to “Ensure sustainable health promoting environments and accessible, cost-
effective, comprehensive, equitable and quality health care services for the prevention and
control of NCDs, and guided by the principle of “Health in All, Health by All, Health for All”
whereas Health in All refers to Health in All Policies, Health by All involves the whole-of-
government and the whole-of-society and the Health for All captures the KP (Kalusugan
Pangkalahatan) or the Universal Health Care (UHC).”

The Department of Health is the primary government agency responsible for the
equitable, sustainable and quality health for the Filipinos. Health centers are established in
different cities, municipalities, and barangays. There are doctors, nurses, midwives,
dentists, and other health workers assigned to serve the people. The serve free of charge for
child delivery, vaccination, treatment, and pre/post-natal care for mothers.

28
Health centers are designed to give medical services nationwide. The following are the
health services of the department:

1. Medical and dental services

2. Health services
3. Health education and manpower services
4. Research and laboratory center
5. Center for cancer control
6. Nutrition services
7. Dermatology research and training services
8. Nutrition, family planning and natal care services

Programs and projects of the Department of Health

The prevention and control of the lifestyle-related NCDs was traditionally addressed
through separate and distinct public health programs. The DOH implements these
programs vertically with policies, protocols and interventions that targeted a particular
disease. This disease-based approach was implemented in all government units in the early
1990’s with some limited success. Some of these programs include the following:

1. Diabetes Mellitus Prevention and Control Program

2. Occupational Health Program
3. Cardiovascular Disease Prevention and Control Program
4. Smoking Cessation Program
5. Violence and Injury Prevention Program

Various DOH Medical Centers and Specialty Hospitals such as the National Kidney and
Transplant Institute (NKTI), the Philippine Heart Center (PHC), and the Lung Center of the
Philippines (LCP) are also conducting separate health promotion activities. It sought to
promote a healthy lifestyle among Filipinos by advocating seven vital, yet simple, healthy
practices.

1. No smoking
2. Don’t drink alcohol
3. No to illegal drugs
4. Eat low-fat, low-salt, and high-fiber diet
5. Prevent hypertension and diabetes
6. Do physical activities
7. Manage stress

29
 Other agencies and institutions of government have provided support to the national
efforts to promote health and control NCDs and their associated risk behaviors. Some of
these initiatives include the following:

Department of Education (DepEd)

In partnership with donors and NGOs, DepEd regularly conducts activities that
promote school health and nutrition, and the control and prevention of NCDs. DepEd
also supports Presidential Proclamation 958 that declares 2005 to 2015 as the Decade
of Healthy Lifestyle.
Programs of DepEd’s Health and Nutrition Center related to NCD.
1. Medical check-up
2. School feeding
3. Deworming
4. Giving an anti-filariasis tablet
5. Blood testing
6. Anti-smoking campaign
7. Extracurricular activities such as different clubs and organizations
Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG)
In support to Presidential Proclamation 958, DILG advocates “Perfect 10”
lifestyle program to prevent NCDs and urges all local chief executives to support the
campaign.

INTERNATIONAL AGENCIES OR ORGANIZATIONS

United Nations Interagency Task Force on The Prevention and Control of NCDs
The UN Interagency Task Force on the Prevention and Control of NCDs will
coordinate the activities of the relevant United Nations funds, programs and specialized
agencies and other intergovernmental organizations, to support the realization of the
commitments made by Heads of State and Government in the UN Political Declaration on
NCDs

World Health Organization

World Health Organization’s mission is to provide leadership and the evidence base
for international action on surveillance, prevention, and control of NCDs.

30
 What I Have Learned
List down the different programs and projects of the Department of Health on
prevention and control of NCDs.
