MANILA, Philippines - There are adverse situations and illnesses that can be life-altering, like strokes or mini strokes.  How can you avert or cope with a stroke? What are the best nutritional options that can fortify the body to help withstand it? These are some of the questions answered by the latest issue of the Healthy Options Lifestyle News Digest.
