The event was held at the grounds of Tuloy Foundation in Alabang and featured a panel discussion on the importance of nutrition in sports performance and a friendly game between LA Galaxy and the Tuloy Foundation Football Club.

Tuloy Foundation has been a partner of Herbalife Nutrition Foundation’s flagship Casa Herbalife Program since 2016. As a global non-profit, Herbalife Nutrition Foundation (HNF) partners with charities and organizations (including Herbalife) around the world to help provide the proper nutrition and education necessary for the wellness of children and communities. In the Philippines, Tuloy Foundation seeks to help homeless and abandoned youth and children by providing them with a safe home and education. The foundation’s holistic curriculum includes sports development for youth.

“By working together, we can ensure that children in need have access to proper nutrition and the opportunity to thrive in their chosen endeavors,” said Alan Domingo, General Manager of Herbalife Philippines.

Speaking at the panel discussion, Dr. Dana Ryan, Director of Sports Performance, Nutrition, and Education at Herbalife, emphasized the essential role of nutrition in athletic achievement. She underlined that "structuring the day is crucial for optimizing performance.”

For breakfast, a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats is essential to kick start the day. Meanwhile, pre-workout nutrition should include easily digestible carbs and some protein. During workouts, hydration is key, along with easily digestible snacks. Post-workout, a combination of protein and carbs aid recovery.

“These principles apply to athletes of all levels, promoting sustained energy and efficient recovery.”

Herbalife Philippines ends the year on a high note as it welcomes five-time Major League Soccer champions LA Galaxy to inspire young athletes of Tuloy Foundation.
