Golden Fiesta Canola Oil, in partnership with the Philippine Heart Center, joined the global observance of World Heart Day 2025 on September 29, 2025, at the PHC grounds. This year’s celebration, themed “Don’t Miss a Beat,” underscored the importance of building healthier habits to combat the rising burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVD)—the leading cause of death worldwide and a growing health challenge among Filipinos.
The event commenced with welcoming remarks from Dr. Avenilo L. Aventura, Cardiothoracic Surgeon and PHC Executive Director, along with messages from PHC leaders Dr. Alexander A. Tuazon, Deputy Executive Director for Education, Training and Research Services, and Dr. Christopher C. Cheng, Deputy Executive Director for Medical Services. Representing Golden Fiesta Canola Oil, Ms. Ina Nocheseda, Consumer Connection Manager, also joined the opening program to express the brand’s continued commitment to promoting healthier lifestyles for Filipino families.
“Today we come together as one community, patients, staff, and partners, united by a shared commitment to heart health, healing and hope. This occasion reminds us that every heart beat has a story. And each story deserves care.” said Dr. Avenilo L. Aventura, Executive Director of the Philippine Heart Center
Throughout the program, patients gained valuable knowledge through lifestyle intervention talks, heart-to-heart discussions on risk factors, and a heart-healthy cooking demo. Attendees were also encouraged to take charge of their health through free health services, including blood pressure checks, nutrition counseling, and lipid screening. Fun and engaging activities like the fitness segment and food tasting further reinforced the importance of balancing nutritious food and physical activity in everyday life.
More than just a one-day celebration, World Heart Day serves as a call to action—a reminder for Filipinos to prioritize cardiovascular health, make informed lifestyle choices, and empower communities to prevent heart disease before it starts.
For Golden Fiesta Canola Oil, this advocacy is closely aligned with its brand commitment to inspire healthier living among Filipinos. Guided by its slogan, “Start Your Lifestyle Change with Golden Fiesta Canola Oil,” the brand continues to encourage every household to make simple yet sustainable and powerful choices toward long-term wellness, like preparing meals with the Doctors’ Most Prescribed Canola Oil.
“The long term commitment of Golden Fiesta Canola Oil is to provide nutrition that you can trust. We only provide top quality products that support heart healthy cooking while still providing enjoyment to your food.” emphasized Ina Nocheseda, Consumer Connection Manager of Golden Fiesta Canola Oil.
Through its partnership with the Philippine Heart Center, Golden Fiesta Canola Oil reaffirms its mission to champion heart health, urging everyone to live better, healthier lives. Because when it comes to caring for your heart, remember: “Don’t Miss a Beat.”
