Iza Calzado reminds her fans and followers about the importance of making better choices for your health.

In an Instagram post, the Encantadia actress shared that she was diagnosed with pharyngitis and bronchitis and has been sick for more than a week.

According to healthline.com, pharyngitis is "an inflammation of the pharynx, which is in the back of the throat. It's most often referred to simply as “sore throat.” It can also cause scratchiness in the throat and difficulty swallowing.

"Meanwhile, bronchitis happens when your bronchial tubes become swollen and inflamed. Your bronchial tubes are responsible for delivering air from your windpipe to your lungs. Bronchitis makes it harder for air to pass in and out of your lungs.”

On Instagram, Iza shared a series of photos and videos while recovering from sickness.

She wrote, "My cough and nasal congestion. Not very demure.

“Over a week now of being sick and even missing out on some work commitments. Pushed my body too hard again. Almost our entire household got sick but I was the one who got it bad. From losing my voice to developing bronchitis, this is definitely a wake-up call to be even more mindful.”

Iza also thanked everyone kind enough to check on her and gave a shout-out to her doctors and nurses for helping her amid her health condition.

“The silver lining here is that it all happened before work and life schedule becomes even more hectic. God is already reminding me that I need to make better choices in the weeks and months to come. Well noted, God. Well noted po.

“Grateful for those who have been helping me through this journey. I did everything from doing a panel test, taking my medications, nebulising, to doing IV drips, acupuncture, ozone treatment and energy healing. Doctors, healers and nurses all making sure I bounce back to feeling strong and healthy again for work, which starts tomorrow, and all that I have lined up in the next few months. Salamat sa inyo.”

“Moving forward with a plan to make sure I can be at my optimal health for the many hats I wear in life, especially the one I wear with most pride and joy -- being Deia's mom. ️

“May we all be happy, healthy, mindful and very demure. Have a blessed Sunday!

“P.S. Thanks for all the healing love and energy! I am on the mend and your messages are making me feel even better. Much love to all of you.”
