  • Viability of producing functional food
    Yap, Julio P. Jr. (Panay News, Inc., 2018-07-27)
    The production or processing of functional food is becoming one of the fast growing segments of the country’s food industry. Functional food contains both essential nutrients and health promoting non-nutrients. However, fish sauce and other fermented food products may not be considered functional food due to their high salt content. Fortunately, a project of the University of the Philippines (UP) Visayas was able to produce fish sauce which is derived from mussel. Since this kind of fish sauce is low in salt, it can be a potential functional food and ingredient.
  • Vulnerable ecosystems in Eastern Visayas
    Yap, Julio P. Jr. (Panay News, Inc., 2018-10-08)
    Biodiversity is an important factor in improving our ecosystem because each species of plants or animals, no matter how small, all have an important role to play. It is often used to measure the health of biological systems, and to determine whether there is a danger that too many species have become extinct. Because of its significance, the Philippine Science High School-Eastern Visayas Campus (PHSH-EVC) in Palo, Leyte emphasized the importance of preserving biodiversity in the region through the Biodiversity and Vulnerable Ecosystems Research (BiVER) Program.
