On Friday, Perez clarified that contrary to her fans’ speculations, it is not her regular yoga routine that caused her hospitalization. 

The TV host said that yoga, in fact, is good for her back, and something that she ate after her “Magpasikat” performance with Anne Curtis caused her vomiting and diarrhea.
