Wellness Tips:
Prioritize Balance in a Busy World.

This week is a reminder that true wellbeing isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what matters most. Let’s use this week to reset, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves and each other.

Redefine Productivity:
Busy ≠ Balanced. Productivity includes rest, creativity, and recovery — not just output.

Weight and cholesterol – breaking the clichés!

It’s a common belief that being overweight automatically means high cholesterol. But the truth is more complex. While excess weight, especially visceral fat (around your abdomen), can raise LDL ('bad cholesterol') and lower HDL ('good cholesterol'), weight alone doesn’t tell the full story.

Many other factors, like genetics, diet, and exercise, play a bigger role. Did you know that slim individuals can also have high cholesterol due to poor lifestyle habits or family history?

The focus shouldn’t be only on weight, but on healthy habits like a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and managing health holistically. Cholesterol is about more than just numbers on a scale.

Cholesterol and your brain – what’s the connection?
Cholesterol isn’t just about heart health; it’s critical for your brain, too. In fact, about 25% of your body’s cholesterol is found in your brain. Why? Because it’s essential for:

-Building brain cells: Cholesterol forms and repairs cell membranes in neurons.
-Supporting communication: It’s crucial for producing myelin, the insulation around nerve fibers that allows your brain to send signals quickly.
-Enabling neurotransmitters: Cholesterol helps produce the chemical messengers responsible for mood, memory, and cognition.
-But balance is key. Low cholesterol can lead to issues like depression or cognitive decline, while high LDL (bad cholesterol) can contribute to vascular damage and increase the risk of stroke or dementia.

Cholesterol isn’t just a number – it’s a vital part of keeping your brain healthy.

🎉 Celebrating a Century of Agostini Limited – Built by People, Strengthened by Purpose

As we revisit the roots of our story, the year is 1925. Calypso music echoed from gramophones in open windows, capturing the pulse of a nation finding its voice. In the heart of Port of Spain, brothers Johnnie and Victor Agostini launched a modest commission agency—anchored in integrity, vision, and an unyielding belief in trust.
What followed was the evolution of a company—and a legacy—built through the dedication of people and the foresight of leaders who believed in doing more and going further.

Among the pillars of that legacy is Agostini’s long-standing pharmaceutical division, which has played a vital role in advancing healthcare and improving lives across the region. That commitment was significantly strengthened through the strategic acquisition and merger of Smith Robertson—bringing together decades of excellence under a unified mission.

Today, this legacy continues through entities like Aventa, proudly upholding the values and vision that have defined Agostini for a century.

What do 100 years of progress teach us?
✅ That sustainable growth is built on strong teams
✅ That true leadership requires vision and bold action
✅ That long-term impact is created by those who dare to challenge limits

As we celebrate 100 years of Agostini, we recognize every contributor, past and present, who shaped this extraordinary journey. With renewed purpose, we look to the future, confident that the spirit ignited in 1925 continues to guide us.

Here’s to the next century, rooted in purpose, driven by people, and inspired by the enduring spirit of our Caribbean region.
