Judging from his recent exploits, Miggy Cabel Moreno seems on his way to becoming one of Mindanao’s culture heroes in the years to come. And why wouldn’t he? Moreno has long advocated for regional Filipino cuisine, particularly Southern Mindanao food, since opening Palm Grill in 2017 and Cabel in 2022.

Moreno, however, isn’t just winning customers over with his causes; both his warm heart and beloved Michelin-approved food are convincingly effective in delivering his intent. Whether at his restaurants or at his limited-time collaborations, Moreno has a hand in the joyous discovery of Filipino cuisine beyond the usual adobo or sinigang.

Your P100 today buys only about P75 worth of what it did in 2018.

That’s how much purchasing power has been eroded by years of rising prices in Central Visayas.

Which foods increase creatinine?

Several years back, I was half-way through my breakfast when my friend told me he had done his routine tests and realized he had high creatinine levels. However, he pinpointed the particular food that caused such results.

There are some foods that can increase the levels of creatinine temporarily due to their impact on the body; among them, there is cooked red meat, since the process of cooking converts the creatine into creatinine. High protein intake makes the kidneys work more intensively, but it does not always lead to the development of kidney disease, especially in healthy individuals. Moreover, the consumption of creatine supplements increases the level of creatinine in the blood stream.

What surprised me the most was the fact that it is not only one food that should be considered when it comes to the increased creatinine levels. Such factors as hydration, the intake of medications, muscle mass, and kidney health have an impact on the level of the substance in the body. During that period, I came across the health script where I found a useful daily practice based on the use of natural remedy. At first, it seemed to be too ordinary for me to pay

AI transforming, not cutting PH outsourcing jobs–study

The artificial intelligence (AI) boom has not yet caused a decline in the Philippines’ service-export revenues or employment, ING Bank N.V. said, arguing that AI is so far changing what gets outsourced rather than reducing demand for outsourced work.

In a report, Deepali Bhargava, head of Asia-Pacific research at ING, said there was evidence that AI was reshaping the composition of service exports and employment in both the Philippines and India, another global outsourcing powerhouse.

Telecom and computer services have continued to expand alongside business services exports, lifting their combined share of the Philippine economy to 7.1 percent by mid-2026 from 6.3 percent before the pandemic, Bhargava said.
