Our cover story on page 51, features the beautiful, doe-eyed Sarah Hyland (from Modern Family). On page 55, you’ll find tips on “How to Plan a Wedding (without losing your mind)”. Our Cendol for the Soul on page 64 features Zhariff Afandi, a man with no arms who overcame, and even wrote a book about it. All in all, we’re certain you’ll enjoy this month’s issue as it is jam packed with a wide variety of health topics. So subscribe now!
