MANILA - Aksyon Demokratiko standard bearer and Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso on Friday said he would try to reduce the Philippines' rice consumption to reduce the need to import grains and to minimize health issues such as diabetes.
The country's high rice consumption leads to health issues like diabetes, and forces the government to import rice from other countries to keep up with the demand, he said.Rice remains the staple food in the Philippines with 93 percent of households in the country eating it on a regular basis, according to a 2015-2016 study from the Philippine Statistic Authority.kilograms per year or 2.11 kilograms per week," the study read.
Fish consumption ranged between 35 and 43 percent depending on the variant, while only 9.66 percent of households consumed beef on a regular basis, the PSA said. "Filipino farmers first... We should prioritize the food products of our own farmers and breeders of hog and chicken," the Manila Mayor said in one of his "listening tours" in Batangas.
"Pero kahit maturuan mo ang tao, kung hindi naman available ang gulay at yung gulay ay imported, para lang natin tinangkilik ang gulay ng ibang bansa," he said.This is why the Aksyon Demokratiko standard bearer is also batting for a 5 to 10-year fund for the agriculture sector should he win next year's elections.

Para sa maayos na kalusugan ni Mayor Isko Moreno
Sang ayon po kami na dapat kumain ng more gulay pero hindi po ata kayang kumain ng mga pinoy na less rice
Hala na bu-ang na! HAHAHA broccoli pa nga lang di na afford ng karaniwang Pinoy eh.
Healthy food yorme
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
yes kaya ang daming diabetic na pinoy
Filipinos eat the way they do and by region or financial status. Kung buong araw kang kumakayod ayos lang maraming rice kasi talagang kailangan mo ng 3000+ calories a day eh pero kung sedentary ka oo magbawas ka ng rice.
Bakit, marami silamg pera para maraming side dishes?
Agree to Yorme eat more healthy to live longer
