A lot of my friends and relatives have been getting calls from @RajPoliceHelp /CID/IB inquiring about my family.

Mujhse hi pooch lo bhai, mai hi bata dunga.

@ravish_journo @vikaskyogi Request all to find out who are these men !!

Their identify ?

They were sitting with canes and were brutally beating the students.

Even Safdarjung's own Resident Doctors’ Association says Sonam Wangchuk’s detention is absurd & unnecessary. After his illegal, unconstitutional removal from Jantar Mantar, doctors are demanding his right to LAMA and an independent inquiry.

His wife is clear: move him to a private hospital or give him full access, phone & visitors so he can speak directly.

Sonam Wangchuk has been kidnapped. Release the 59-year-old Magsaysay Award-winning Satyagrahi immediately. Let him return to the protest. That’s what he wants. You cannot hold a man against his will.

In India, if you mention paneer, cheese, butter or eggs, the first question people ask is:
"Any side effects of taking these?"

But when it comes to chips, biscuits, cola and ultra-processed junk food, nobody asks anything.

Suddenly… side effects don’t matter. 😄

Some people enjoy rusk with tea.
Just see how it may be prepared.

Excess artificial colours in processed foods pose serious health risks, especially to children. Recent recalls show need for stricter enforcement, not just rules.
Consumers: stop use & return recalled products.

India Eats More Frequently Than It Ever Did:

Breakfast.
Mid-morning snack.
Lunch.
Evening snack
Dinner.
Boredom snack.

The system never rests, and metabolism pays the price.

Why “Mild Diabetes” Can Be Dangerous

There is no mild diabetes, also commonly referred to as "prediabetes."

Even early diabetes means:

1) Chronic high insulin exposure (hyperinsulinemia)

2) Vascular stress (high insulin levels can be damaging)

3) Organ-level damage

It’s well known & also documented that many complications are diagnosed around the time of “prediabetes”

Micronutrient deficiencies (B12 & D) can worsen the condition.

These are very common in India

Symptoms may be mild, but the consequences will not be.

The First Organ Affected in Diabetes Is Not the Pancreas
It’s the liver.

Fatty liver appears early.
Glucose regulation fails later.

By the time sugar rises, the liver has been struggling for years.

[Shashi Iyengar | Metabolic Health India® @shashiiyengar]

How Stress Raises Insulin (Even Without Food)

When stressed:
1) Cortisol rises
2) Liver releases glucose
3) The pancreas releases insulin
4) Hunger increases
5) Belly fat accumulates

Stress management is insulin management.

Happy to share that my comment on India’s rising metabolic health crisis has been featured in Sakal Pune (28 Nov 2025) and is also published alongside the latest Lancet paper on ultra-processed foods. https://t.co/c6KKvVrS1s

As someone working on the ground with thousands of Indians, it’s encouraging to see mainstream media and global journals finally acknowledging what we’ve been warning for years - our food environment is driving an epidemic of obesity, diabetes, fatty liver, and heart disease.

Grateful that my voice could contribute to this important conversation.

Stop Calling These ‘Normal’

Many Indians call these normal:
1) Belly fat
2) Sleepiness after meals
3) Snoring
4) Sugary tea
5) Pre-diabetes (early diabetes)
6) Fatty liver
7) Joint pain

These are not normal.

These may be metabolic in nature.

You may be able to correct them via changing the lifestyle.

The Truth About Indian Office Culture

Indian offices don’t run on productivity.

They run on constant sugar hits:
1) Sugary chai/coffee multiple times a day
2) Biscuits daily & also served at every meeting
3) Birthday cakes almost daily
4) Evening samosas - the unofficial office ritual
5) Late-night dinners after meetings or get-togethers

This is not a workload.

It’s a metabolic overload.

Why Kids Are Becoming Insulin Resistant

It’s not one thing.
It’s the whole environment.

Daily foods:
1) Breakfast cereals
2) Biscuits
3) Chips
4) Chocolates
5) Junk foods (now daily, earlier only weekends)
6) Processed foods in school tiffins
7) Sugary drinks and fruit juices

Lifestyle factors:
1) No sunlight exposure
2) No open-air play
3) No movement after meals
4) No physical activity (the real problem):

Kids are sitting more than ever:
1) Long school hours
2) Tuitions
3) Screens
4) Homework
5) Almost zero sports
6) No rough-and-tough outdoor play
7) No muscle-building activity

Muscles are the biggest glucose-burning organ.

When kids don’t use their muscles, insulin resistance shows up early.

This is why we now see:
1) Childhood obesity
2) PCOS in teenage girls
3) Early fatty liver
4) High TG
5) Early prediabetes

Fix this early, or the future costs will be massive.

आजकल ज़रा-सी गैस या एसिडिटी होते ही लोग तुरंत Pan-40 और ऐसी दवाइयाँ खा लेते हैं…
और सोचते हैं कि “कोई साइड-इफ़ेक्ट नहीं होता।”

यही सबसे बड़ी भूल है।
ऐसी दवाओं का लगातार सेवन आपकी किडनी को नुकसान पहुँचा सकता है,
कैल्शियम-मैग्नीशियम की कमी,
हड्डियाँ कमजोर,
Vitamin-B12 की कमी,
यहाँ तक कि आँतों में इंफ़ेक्शन का ख़तरा भी बढ़ जाता है।

मेरे OPD में एक मरीज आए थे — पिछले 7–8 साल से रोज़ाना Pan-40 जैसी दवाएँ खा रहे थे।
अब किडनी फ़ंक्शन धीरे-धीरे गिर गया है, हड्डियाँ कमजोर हो चुकीं, और B12 बेहद कम।
और कारण सिर्फ़ यह कि छोटी-सी एसिडिटी पर तुरंत दवा खा लेने की आदत।
कसम लेकर कह रहे थे — “काश यह पहले पता होता।”

दवा हर समस्या का समाधान नहीं होती —
सही जीवनशैली सबसे बड़ी दवा है।

गैस और एसिडिटी का असली इलाज दवा नहीं, बल्कि सही आदतें हैं।
समय पर खाना सबसे ज़रूरी है -लंबे समय तक खाली पेट रहने से एसिड बढ़ता है।
भोजन अच्छी तरह चबाकर धीरे-धीरे खाएँ -जल्दी खाने से हवा पेट में जाती है और गैस-फुलाव बढ़ता है।
चाय-कॉफ़ी और कोल्ड-ड्रिंक सीमित करें -ये एसिडिटी को कई गुना बढ़ाते हैं।
रात में भारी भोजन और खाने के तुरंत बाद सोना बंद करें सोने से 2-3 घंटे पहले हल्का भोजन लें।
मसालेदार, तले-भुने और पैकेट-बंद खाद्य पदार्थों से दूरी रखें।
और सबसे महत्वपूर्ण — हर दिन 30-40 मिनट टहलें या व्यायाम करें,
पाचन अपने-आप सुधरने लगता है और गैस-एसिडिटी कम होती है।

If indian vegetarian are wondering then let me tell you that its "milk"

Many of the trendy Indians think that milk is bad due to the propaganda of vegans. Add up egg as soon as possible.
