🇸🇬Boost Your Immune System with These Top Vitamin C Supplements

Boost Your Immune System with These Top Vitamin C Supplements

Right now, many of us in the office are wearing masks. Why? A few colleagues and I are dealing with tonsillitis, runny noses, and headaches. We saw a doctor and got some medicine. Little did we know, COVID-19 is on the rise again in Singapore, with 25,000 new cases in just one week.

We know this virus is here to stay, and a strong immune system is the best defense. But what makes a good immune system? We're not doctors, but we all know that vitamin C helps.

Here are the vitamin C supplements we're taking:

1. Centrum
• This is the vitamin C my mom's doctor recommended. It's non-acidic and contains other essential vitamins. Her skin looks great (thanks to collagen production), so we decided to try it. My husband loves it and sticks with it. Unfortunately, I can't handle the strong taste. Plus, I'm allergic to rose hip ingredients.
2. Blackmores
• One of the pricier brands in Singapore, but worth it during sales. It's easy to take without needing to dissolve anything.
3. Guardian
• My go-to for stopping coughs and runny noses. It's very effective, so I stock up during sales. This vitamin C comes with zinc to help fight colds.

That's how we choose our vitamin C. Hope this helps you pick your defense system!

Get 60% Off Indulgent Eats at A Must-Try Yummo Chow in Bugis

ABBEY: We were able to spend some time with Chat for April celebrations at Yummo Chow (Hotel NuVe Heritage). The restaurant is not too busy when we arrived half past 12 noon. I guess we’re the only guests that time. We looked at the menu and included pork ribs on our first order but unfortunately it was not available at the moment.

We got teriyaki salmon, Australian sirloin and ribeye steaks, spam fries, french fries, mentaiko mayo prawn, and carbonara. The pastas (including our second order chilli crab) lack the flavor and got too much sauce. Our spam fries seems not to be Spam but other brand of luncheon meat but still good. I really liked the ribeye steaks, prawn, and pork satays (note that there are 5 sticks per order). 

For the drinks, the staff recommended fresh watermelon and it didn’t disappoint; not too sweet or watery. No credit card payments but Grab and PayNow is accepted.

WILL: Another year has passed, and what better way to celebrate than with delicious food on a budget, right? We decided to treat ourselves at Yummo Chow, indulging in some seriously crave-worthy dishes.

First up, we had to satisfy our fish craving, opting for both salmon and dory. Next on the list was Shrimp Tempura, because who can resist crispy, flavorful tempura? And then came the unexpected delight – pork satay! We ended up devouring 10 skewers of it, completely caught off guard by how good it was.

To balance out all the savory flavors, we were pleasantly surprised by freshly squeezed watermelon juice, offering the perfect natural sweetness. And as if that wasn't enough, they also served 1872 Clippers Tea, adding a unique touch to our meal.

Yummo Chow at Bugis definitely exceeded our expectations with their offerings. Highly recommended, especially with their current 60% off deal on the Eatigo App. Don't miss out this S$21++ deal (add: $1190 for Premium Items)!

Ralph’s Coffee: A Taste of Luxury and Connection at Marina Bay Sands

ABBEY: We planned to visit Ralph’s Coffee a couple of times and that day came. Good thing there are less people on the shop when we arrived. I got the flat white and we ordered a slice of chocolate cake. My coffee tastes the same as with other cafes but the cake is to come back for. 

Remember the Matilda Cake? The decadent, sweet-bitter, and moist cake? This is close. You can go by here while thinking what Ralph Lauren’s piece of clothing you would buy, or rest after trying them all or just casually catch up with a friend or loved ones. They do takeaways too.

Ralph’s Coffee: A Taste of Luxury and Connection at Marina Bay Sands

WILL: Nestled in the heart of Marina Bay Sands, Ralph’s Coffee flagship store offers more than just a caffeine fix—it’s an experience. And let me tell you, it’s an experience worth having! As soon as you step in, you're greeted by the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the chic ambiance that Ralph Lauren is famous for.

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show—the sea salt caramel latte. At just S$8, it’s a steal! Not only does it pack the perfect punch of caffeine, but it’s also not too sweet, striking that ideal balance that keeps you coming back for more. Plus, the price is just right, comparable to your favorite coffee chains.

But what truly sets Ralph’s Coffee apart is the atmosphere. Unlike other cafes where you often see people glued to their screens or buried in books, here it's all about connection. The three tables occupied by patrons were filled with laughter and conversations, as people took the time to bond with each other—a refreshing change indeed.

In conclusion, Ralph’s Coffee is more than just a café—it’s an oasis of warmth and connection in the bustling Marina Bay Sands. If you’re looking for a unique café experience that’s a cut above the rest, I highly recommend giving it a try. Trust me, you’ll feel the difference from the moment you walk in. Cheers to many more delightful coffee dates at Ralph’s!
