Let Your Car Tint Protect Your Health, Safety and Wellbeing

Sun exposure is typically associated with activities such as spending a day in the beach or playing outdoors. But did you know that sun exposure inside your car can also increase your risk for wrinkles, age spots, facial sagging, and even skin cancer?


 Cancer research shows that UV radiation inside a car is affected by whether car windows are up or down, the orientation of the vehicle to the sun, and the type of films and tints used on car windows.

One thing is sure. For all types of vehicles, car tints are not a luxury. They are a must. Harmful UV rays can be reduced by up to 99% if your vehicle is installed with quality car tint.

What are the advantages of having your car tinted?
  • A good car tint will let you drive better because having the sun in your eyes can adversely affect your reflexes and driving concentration.
  • A good car tint provides you with better privacy, and to a large extent, safety. Car tints can keep people with malicious intent from seeing your valuables that are stored inside the car.
  • A good car tint also protects car upholstery and interiors from direct sunlight that can cause warping, fading or cracking.
  • A good car tint will protect your windows from shattering in the event of an accident. This could save your life and lessen your chances of injury. 
  • A good car tint reduces heat and makes you sweat less, adding to your hygiene and sense of wellbeing.


Most important, a good car tint directly impacts your health. It protects your skin from harmful UV rays that can accelerate aging and give you life threatening skin cancer over a long period of exposure.

3M Automotive Window Films effectively blocks harmful UV rays, rejects heat from the sun, reduces glare, and protects even the interiors of cars, making your ride cool, comfortable, and protected from the sun’s damaging rays.

3M invented window films in 1966 and has been protecting cars and people for more than 40 years now. Improving comfort, protecting vehicle interiors and the people who oride vehicles is a hallmark of 3M Automotive Window Films. Whether the need is for breakthrough heat-rejection technology in a clear film or simply to minimize the harmful effects of the sun, 3M Automotive Window Films are an ideal choice because they can protect with SPF factors exceeding 1000.

There are many types of 3M Automotive Window Films that ensure they will last long and not turn purple even after many years of usage.

Get your juice and smoothie fix with nature’s nut

Health authorities recommend a daily intake of 6-8 servings of fruits and vegetables everyday. But the truth is, most of us fall short in fulfilling this requirement because at most, we only consume about 2-3 servings per day.


This is why juicing became an instantaneous health trend, as it allows the body to get the right concentration of fruits and veggies targeted in a day. With the wide variety of fruits and veggies available, there is no reason for one drink to be bland and boring. More so, additional ingredients such as coconut water can actually boost the health properties of your juice. It provides extra hydration due to its excellent natural source of potassium and electrolytes, plus it has anti-oxidant qualities.

For a quick burst of morning energy, or just a light drink for your afternoon snack, here are juice recipes containing the water from the nature’s nut as your liquid ingredient.



To jumpstart your morning stamina, let a healthy beverage set out your day with these simple juice recipes.

Green Breakfast of Champions
1 cup frozen peaches, mangoes, or pineapples
½ cup berries
1 handful of kale or spinach
½ cup coconut water

A light snack, or just merely to ensure you’re getting your daily fruit and veggie fix, try this sweet and delicious juice.

Strawberry, Pear, and Coconut Water Juice
3 cups fresh strawberries without stems
1 pear, cored and seeded
¼ lime
1 inch ginger
½ cup coconut water

To replenish your lost electrolytes after a long day turn to the power ingredient that is coconut water and blend with your veggies. Kale is known for its cancer-fighting nutrients too.

Garden Green Coco Smoothie
½ cup coconut water
1 handful of kale
1 handful spinach
½ banana

For a convenient way to get your coconut water, Tropicana Coco Quench serves as best alternative for it keeps the natural goodness and freshness of coconut water with its Tetra Pak packaging. Tropicana Coco Quench has up to 8-month shelf life and is widely available in all leading convenience stores and supermarkets in 330ml and 1L packs.

Now we know that while juicing has been widely popular with its cleansing and weight loss properties, there is more to it than just trimming down your waistline. However, note that juicing cannot replace your regular meals, as only a balanced diet is the way to achieve a healthy lifestyle.
