WORDS BY EVELYN “BABES” TERO, AS TOLD BY KATHRYN ABBOT
Pursuing a healthier lifestyle with your family may not be easy, but it is rewarding and worth it. And no one knows that better than our Executive Diamond, Evelyn “Babes” Tero. Here is her story of her and her family’s wellness journey with Amway Philippines and Nutrilite™.
“I am Evelyn Tero, an Executive Diamond of Amway Philippines with my husband, Mario Tero. I’m also a mother to 5 successful kids: Melren, who is currently in Belgium engaged in a solar business, Gem-gem, who works in digital marketing, Mar Anthony, who supports us in our Amway and medical distributor businesses, Mar Christian, a phlebotomist coordinator in Chicago, and Mar Paolo, who manages our E & M (medical trading) family business.
Being a mother is a very rewarding experience for me, especially as I watch my children grow from a very young age until they reach great levels that I cannot imagine. Being a mom of moms is even greater as you can see other moms molding their children just as you did with them.
See, as a caring mother, your presence at home should bring joy and comfort to your family. It's important to create a warm and welcoming environment where your loved ones feel appreciated and supported. Strive to be an encouraging and understanding presence in your family's lives, fostering positivity and closeness. Your family should feel grateful for the nurturing and loving atmosphere you provide at home, making them cherish your presence rather than desire to leave. That is how I care for my family and lead the moms in our community of leaders.
However, what I value most in caring for my family and myself is to instill in us the value of being God-Fearing. Once a person is God-fearing, all values circle and flow easily towards it connecting the other values that we need as a person. This is what I teach my kids for them to always be spiritually guided.
As for what we do to be holistically healthy, my family and I eat food and exercise together. We have also created the Carbs In Carbs Out group, which thousands of members have already joined. To make our members more active in the community, we have created activities like Project 40K, a weight loss challenge, and our weekly fitness activity called Evolve.
Being part of the Amway business, which operates within the health industry, naturally draws you into a community where health is prioritized. Within this community, you witness individuals who have achieved success by placing a significant emphasis on their health and well-being. It’s one of the many reasons why I started my (and eventually my family’s) fitness journey and living a holistically healthier lifestyle.
In fact, the first product of theirs that caught my attention is the NUTRILITE™ Next Gen Double X Multivitamins. It has the complete package of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.
I was drawn to using and endorsing NUTRILITE™ because of its commitment to quality and effectiveness. It offers a wide range of supplements and wellness products that are backed by scientific research and developed with a focus on natural ingredients. Knowing that NUTRILITE™ products are formulated to support optimal health and well-being gives me confidence in recommending them to others. Additionally, NUTRILITE™'s dedication to sustainable farming practices aligns with my values, making it a brand I'm proud to stand behind.
In turn, I aspire to embody discipline and serve as both a model and an encourager for others. My aim is to influence and inspire individuals to follow a similar path, recognizing the value in positively influencing others to emulate positive behaviors and attitudes.
So, becoming a health and wellness consultant is a personal choice I'm committed to pursuing. I believe it provides a positive environment that shapes me into a positive influence within the group. Leadership wasn't innate for me; it was cultivated through these communities and their values, guiding me towards greatness.
Another reason why I am fully confident and committed to pursuing a better, healthier life with my family through Amway is the large amount of help and support that it gives me and my loved ones to achieve that.
Back then, I had severe problems with insomnia and profuse bleeding. With the help of Amway Products, especially Double X, it helped address these problems and maintaining a healthy lifestyle have even improved my energy levels daily. It also helped me achieve the biggest wins for my health, such as being 62 years old while my metabolic age is 39 years old.
NUTRILITE™ products also contributed a lot towards my and my family’s positive journey towards health and well-being within a supportive environment. Aside from this, entering the Amway business and continuing to do so has enabled not only me, but also my husband and kids to experience financial stability, the opportunity to travel the world, and the ability to touch the lives of many Filipinos, which are central to our mission. We are engaged in marketplace ministry, dedicated to spreading hope and helping others in the Filipino community.
Recently, I have heard and learned about health span, the total amount of time in a person’s life, where they are generally fit, healthy, and free of disease. And this fact plays a significant role in my and my family’s decision to switch to a healthier lifestyle, with the help of Amway and its many brands.
For example, we use NUTRILITE™ products such as Next Gen Double X, the NUTRILITE™ Omega 3 Complex Softgel Capsule, the NUTRILITE™ Lecithin-E with Honey Tablet, NUTRILITE™ Acerola C Chewable Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ Hair Skin and Nails Complex Tablet, NUTRILITE™ Glucosamine Capsule, the NUTRILITE™ Cal Mag D Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ M Boost Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ Saw Palmetto and Nettle Root Blend Softgel Capsule, the NUTRILITE™ Carb Blocker Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ Chrompic Extra Capsule, the NUTRILITE™ GreenTrim Tablet, the BodyKey™ by NUTRILITE™Meal Replacement Shake, and the NUTRILITE™ Garlic Tablet over the years to help increase our health spans. We are also, as mentioned earlier, mindful of what we eat and make sure that we have physical activities daily.
But the NUTRILITE™ Solutions that I use the most are the NUTRILITE™ Perfect Pack and NUTRILITE™ ABC’s of Health Pack.
This is because the Perfect Pack supports my overall wellness seamlessly, fitting perfectly into my lifestyle while ensuring I maintain the energy levels I require. On the other hand, ABC essentials serve as the cornerstone of every Filipino's pursuit of holistic well-being. I also love Garlic as it helps in my heart health and blood circulation.
The Perfet Pack also works for my family as they lead busy lives, often experiencing delays in their mealtimes. This Solution supplements their daily nutritional requirements, regardless of the food they consume. I have full confidence in their health as long as they have access to the Perfect Pack.
Aside from that, we are also using other NUTRILITE™ items to support our health. They include the NUTRILITE™ Nutri Fiber Blend Chewable Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ All Plant Protein Powder, the NUTRILITE™ Kids Chewable Concentrated Fruits and Vegetables Tablet, the NUTRILITE™ Kids Vitamins and Minerals Chewable Tablet, and the NUTRILITE™ Soy Protein Drink Mix.
Of course, as busy moms, it's challenging to monitor our family's nutrition around the clock. That's why I recommend either the Perfect Pack or the ABC for moms on the go. These products ensure they receive essential nutrients consistently, promoting their optimal health even when we're not able to check in constantly.
As a mother, I firmly believe in the saying "health is wealth." Whenever someone in the family falls ill, it deeply upsets me, but when everyone is healthy, we become very protective and strive to maintain that state. For mothers, health always takes top priority, as it's far costlier to fall sick than to prevent it. It's crucial for moms, especially when it comes to their kids, to prioritize health. Even if children resist taking their vitamins, it's our responsibility as parents to ensure they do, emphasizing the importance of their health over taste preferences.
With open arms, I'm excited to introduce the products that have transformed me into a healthier and happier individual. Additionally, I organize wellness events to keep our community motivated. Currently, we're launching a new initiative, a hula hoop community, which I believe will be particularly appealing to new moms. Join us as we embark on this journey to better health together!”
