Day 169

 Man's search for Meaning- 26

Cancer in kids-causes

 I saw a two minutes video in which the presenter was seen telling a mother the reasons for the increasing occurrence of cancer among small kids and children.

  • He puts the blame on the various chemicals that are added to food items for preserving and adding to the taste buds. 
  • Here he showed that the advertisements given by celebrities do not give the full picture. 
  • But the kids are hooked to such junk food due to the impression created through repeated appealing ads.

·      Result they start taking and demanding different types of packed food items. The parent also fall prey to their demands due to either love for them or their own belief in such food items.

  • So, the narrator added that all those chemicals of different nature create havoc inside the body leading to disastrous consequences. 
  • The video was from Kerala in local language. He added that Kerala is the number two state in India in regard to cancer among small kids…. 
  • he painted a gloomy picture for the kids of that state as also others.

We know that food style and habits will not change overnight.

Further, caveat emptor policy is in place. Buyer beware…. Like the advertisement on Cigarette packets. They are mandatory, did that reduce, cigarette consumption?...

If something is harmful for body   why cant we ban it ?… No, there is revenue angle also...

Let the buyer beware…for his health…

Ganapati festival got over recently. I saw a  video by kids trying to teach some sense to grown ups. Kids have, in the video , made a Ganesh idol with different vegetables and they were praying to the lord as under-

Oh God, give Sad Budhi to people such that

  • ·       They don’t pollute rivers
  • ·       They don’t throw waste carelessly in the open
  • ·       They don’t add to air pollution
  • ·       They don’t use plastics which is harmful to all
  • ·       They  don’t trap and kill animals as they are alspart of mother nature.

Sincere prayer to Lord Ganesh such that their future will be bright and healthy. So, whether it is adulterated or chemically added food items, or vegetable, or fruits… the human life is at risk of getting diseases…… 

  • Medical profession is thriving but they  also got fed up after the recent Pandemic….  and many of them were adversely hit

May the Lord give Sad Buddhi to one and all…. let us pray... incessantly.

Be happy. Be safe.
