The Department of Health(DOH) is set to launch the Healthy Lifestyle to the Max on February 16 in line with President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo’s Executive Order No. 958 declaring 2005 – 2015 as the Decade of Healthy Lifestyle.
EO 958 was issued in December of 2005 and directs the Department of Health (DOH) to organize all concerned sectors of the government and civil society to conduct activities that would promote healthy lifestyle. The executive order is part of President Arroyo’s commitment for the prevention and control of cardiovascular and other related diseases.
The campaign for healthy lifestyle is also in time for the Heart Month celebration which is February, with the theme: ‘Mabuhay Ka Pusong Pinay’.
