Contrary to the oh-so catchy line, “I can feel it!"
from aTV commercial that propelled Alice Dixson to fame and star status, the
44-year-old actress and General Nutrition Center's (GNC) brand ambassador admitsto
not feeling her age at all.
This year GNCpartnerswith Alice on its20th anniversary in
the Philippines and continues to be the leader in the supplements industry. All
40 branches acrossthe country are going to be commemorating 20 years of Living Well,
including their newly opened branches in Gateway Mall, Cubao;Ayala Terraces
Fairview, and SM BF Paranaque. By Living Well, it means a lifestyle that is in

that include high-quality supplements.
Alice Dixson is back in the showbizworld with a
vengeance, such a fascinating subject is her versatility — both in her career
and physical pursuits. Aside from being a certified realtor and commercial
model, her acting resume isdefinitely not that of a lightweight.
Given AIice's dedication and desire to lead a healthy,
happy lifestyle, it came as no surprise when GNC invited her to become its
brand ambassador. “I said, sure, why not? I'd be honored to, I'd love to,"
she exclaims. “In fact, when GNCfirst came to the Philippines— 20 years ago, I
think — I was already one of their customers.”
She adds, “I've always wanted to encourage women — even
men — that whatever your age, you know, you can be motivated to stay fit, be
healthy, make your life more active and fun. I noticed, really and honestly,
when I started doing not just yoga but a regular fitness regimen, you get those
endorphins that make you happy.”
Currently, Alice is a big fan of Burn 60, a thermogenic
supplement proven to increase your energy expenditure by 60% during a physical
activity which is great for those who want to jumpstart fat loss. For her skin,
she regularly takes Resvitale Collagen Enhance which combines French
Resveratrol to boost cellular energy and restores youthful DNA, and BioCell
Collagen, a powerful infusion of collagen and hyaluronic acid to help hydrate
and plump the visible layer of skin for youthfullytoned and radiant skin. Due
to her daily hectic schedule, she keeps her natural energy up with Women's
Ultra Mega; a premium women’s vegetarian and timed-release multivitamin that
provide her with essential woman-specific nutrients missing in our daily diet
with 46 ingredients for advanced complete nutrition needs, bone health,
antioxidant protection and hormonal support.
As the largest manufacturer and retailer of nutritional
supplements, GNCassuresthat more years will follow their streak of adherence to
the philosophy that every person can improve their overall quality of life.
They aim to make the readily available nutritional supplementsonly the very
best in the field, with America’s renowned medical advisers clearing what goes
out to the GNC stores. They guarantee to provide only the best;each supplement
does not reach the shelves of their 6,000 stores worldwide, without undergoing
their rigorous 150 quality checks.
Alice’s fitness regimen is nothing to scoff at either.
“I've always been very athletic." she shares. “I went to an all-girls
Catholic school so we had our basketball team and baseball team. I was doing a
lot of
swimming too. Basically, I grew up as a tomboy — my dad taught
me all the “boy sports." Right now,
Alice isinto badminton, volleyball, yoga, running, and
doesthe typical gym workout. Her adventurous streak is apparent with all the
sports and activities she’s already tried — and have yet to try!
The list doesn’t end there. Alice has also done
skydiving, bungeejumping, skiing, skateboarding, rock climbing, and so on. She
has had “a little bit of training in Pekiti-Tirsia Kali. It's Philippine
martial arts so combat with hands, knives ... Basically, it's self-defense.
I've done it a couple of times and it was helpful for my TV shows where I had
to do some stunts and fight scenes” As if those weren’t enough, Alice recently
learned tennis and wakeboarding and want to learn how to paraglide, karate,
kendo, judo, taekwondo —“If I haven't tried it yet, most likely I will!”
As someone who waged the battle of the bulge and came out
triumphant, Alice has two pieces of simple advice to share with those who are
looking to lose weight and getting back in shape. First, she says, “You really
start with small steps. For me, when I wanted to get in shape
and lose weight, what was more important wasgetting in shape—just building up my
cardio resistance. I started walking until I learned how to do awalk-run, until
I could run 1K, then 2K. Second isto make it a daily—or at least a regular
habit. “I had a motivational recording. It’s something I picked up at the point
when I was a little overweight, I wasn't feeling good about myself, and I just wanted
to live a healthier, happier life," she shares. It's a good way to feed your mind and inspire yourself.
Whether you havejust began your adventure of toning down and keeping fit, or have already reached the middle of yourjourney, you can be assured that 20-year-old GNC will be living well and aging gracefully with you for many more yearsto come. And now, Alice also has GNCto back her up in her fitness goals and to make sure that she stays at the best shape of her life.
