SHOCKING 😳 🇮🇷
We just discovered that 80% of the population in Iran has Master's degrees and PhDs.
Their President is an excellent heart surgeon, and The Foreign Minister and almost all members of Parliament holds a PhD.
Irán also has a 94% literacy rate and one of the largest populations of women scientists in the world.
They are an ancient empire that innovated mathematics and science.
94% literacy rate? ❤️
A good way to start the day? A healthy breakfast.
No doubt. But Herbalife has no role in it.
Herbalife is a multilevel marketing pyramid scheme company which manufactures low quality mixed protein made from pea and soy and includes other dangerous botanicals, all the while charging consumers like they're selling Swarovski diamonds.
There are far more, better protein supplements in the market that consumers can spend money on, definitely not Herbalife...
Because Herbalife products are also, infamously associated with the highest documented liver injury and liver failure cases in the world among all protein supplements. No other BS company has even come close to what Herbalife products have achieved when it comes to harming consumers.
Ronaldo may or may not know this, but his breakfast definitely DOES NOT involve Herbalife products and this is just a paid (I wonder how much!) promotion for the company...
Because even the people you place high on a high pedestal are sometimes deprived of ethics and morality when it comes to healthcare and health literacy when money talks.

Can someone confirm:
- What triggered this sudden test of the #TirupathiLaddus
- From where did this controversy erupt & emerge
- Why were Laddus sent to a lab in Gujarat while Hyderabad FSL is far more sophisticated
- Why weren’t the samples sent across to multiple FSL labs to tally the results & instead only to a #GujaratLab
- Now that the results are out what is the follow-up action
- Who all were involved in this scandal & what measures have been taken to nab them!!!
Or is the whole issue in line with the #BJPee Modus Operandi, that I shared yesterday!!!
Create an issue / controversy, blow it out of proportion, give it some air, bring religious angle to it and have the entire gang of #ITCellChaprasis take it on from there!!!

There's a culture in Big4s - if someone leaves office at 6PM, the managers ask "half-day kya" ?
EY will undertake a massive campaign internally, to undo the damage this episode has done to them;
In the short-term, there will be 'forced' relaxations on work-hours; there will be Friday fun events; there will be some sponsored yoga & breathing lessons; they will even ask you to bring your family to office saying 'we are one big family';
After exactly 3 months, things will be back to where they were because intrinsically these places are toxic by design.
Public Service Announcement 📢
Emerging evidence suggesting that keratin-based hair straightening products containing glycolic acid or glyoxylic acid is associated with development of kidney injury and chronic kidney disease.
Glycolic acid is a byproduct of the oxalate pathway and comes from the conversion of glyoxylic acid.
The injury is due to development of oxalates inside kidney that damages the organ after absorption of the compounds through scalp/tissue surfaces.
This requires further validation from larger series of patients.
Speak with your Dermatologist or Cosmetologist regarding safer options.
As Elections are here and Mr Modi is seeking a 3rd term, media and endless ads on TV are showing how PM single-handedly "developed" the nation. So here is a story:
In December, I found myself in Mr Modi's adopted villages in Varanasi. What I saw there, blew my mind.
A thread..
Please read this and share widely.
A LinkedIn post from a person named Sumeet has been sent to me multiple times. I have also been tagged on this post many times. I think it's important for me to share my concerns here as well, because it's the right thing to do and unfortunately I am the only person who has been very vocal about this and will probably be the only one still.
In the post, Sumeet tells the real life incident involving his father. An otherwise healthy man, he took a herbal dietary supplement at the advise of one Dr. Gupta who is probably a franchisee of the Sky Herbal Life Company.
He was given two products - Sky Herbal Life Fat Burner and Sky Herbal Life Keto - both marketed for weight loss.
Sumeet's father took these products as advised for just 4 days. From the 5th day onwards, he started to lose appetite and on the 10th day after start of symptoms, he was dead. Just gone. Imagine. A much loved healthy senior person will be missing from the life of everyone in that family. Imagine the void. In fact, it's terrifyingly unimaginable.
That said, I am sorry to say that this was not surprising. See the products Sumeet's father took. Read the ingredients. Two of them stand out. Both are WELL DOCUMENTED and both in fact have WARNINGS from the medical science community as well as health regulatory bodies from scientifically progressive societies, as severe liver toxic agents that can lead to the fatal condition the man suffered from - Acute Liver Failure.
Green tea extracts (not green tea) and Garcinia cambogia (malabar tamarind) are highly liver toxic compounds that can injure the liver so badly that they can kill. The person dies of multiple organ failure. This man was on two products that contained both. It's criminal. He was murdered by that "Dr. Gupta" who sold these products to him.
Studies have shown that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in green tea extracts and hydroxycitric acid in Garcinia are toxic compounds in isolation, and worse when they are together - like seen in this product.
Please see here. This has been known since decades. Why are our people not aware of this? Why is the health regulatory body not telling the public this, or putting up warnings or banning these shitty products off the shelf?

https://t.co/gmqA40GFac
https://t.co/f80x1fe6AW
These products do not help you lose weight. They are in fact common causes for severe liver injury and liver failure. And no doctor will tell you this because they fear the industry and are happy with a 9 to 5 clinical job. I have no fear. And I don't have anything to sell, other than these warnings. Please heed. Some doctors may even try to sell this death to you. Beware of such practitioners who prescribe/promote herbal supplements.
How many more avoidable deaths would you want to witness, to understand that herbal and dietary supplements industry is dangerous sham and it serves no real benefits for health or clinical well being.
Sky Herbal Life needs to be sued, taken taken court and made to pay. Dr. Gupta must be in jail...
...in a better world. Not current India.
Reject herbal supplements.
You'll be richer by it.
Money-wise and lives.
#Thread Within hours of us sending a questionnaire to the Prime Minister's Office, a publicly available video was shut off.
Yesterday a transcript of the video was purged too.
Why? To know more, read on
PS: @reporters_co has made the transcript publicly available. Link at end.
Was just asked for comment by The Washington Post regarding a certain court case involving my work, but which thankfully doesn't involve me. I thought it would be worthwhile to share the statement here. For an example of a true artist who has done beautiful things with the 'Humans of' concept, I would encourage everyone to follow @HumansofAdam on Instagram.

In 2004, my dad filed a case of medical negligence against one of India's most powerful hospitals viz. Batra Hospital, Delhi and Padmashree awardee cardiologist Dr Upendra Kaul.
Case was filed in the state consumer court, Delhi & my dad asked for a compensation of Rs. 80 lakh. (80,00,000 INR)
After 11 years, in 2015 my dad passed away, without getting justice.
My senior citizen widowed mother decided not to give up.
TLDR; we won the case after 19 long years, but what transpired is a story that teaches you that, in India, it's better if you can settle outside the court.
But, sometimes it's not about the compensation, settlement, or winning a case; it's about making sure the perpetrators are taught a lesson so that the negligence never gets repeated. It's also about closure.
Here's the story of how a common middle-class Indian family from Assam fought a mighty & powerful establishment in their own city (Delhi) for 19 long years and brought the hospital to its knees:
----
It's a long story, but I'll try to keep it short.
In 2004, my dad went to Delhi alone for a routine heart check-up & returned with a pace-maker in his chest.
Escalated too quickly? Exactly my mother's reaction when he called from Delhi asking her to immediately board a flight from our hometown in Guwahati, Assam.
Long story short:
1. Dad went for a diagnostic study called EPS. Batra hospital took consent for it.
2. Protocol is that if EPS study came abnormal, RFA is suggested as the next step as a treatment after discussing with the patient. Patient needs to provide a fresh consent for RFA.
3. However, if the pathways are too close, RFA is risky & is not recommended as it can be fatal.
4. EPS shows if pathways are close or not.
My dad's EPS showed that pathways are close.
In spite of that, Batra hospital and its cardiologists went ahead and performed RFA:
a. Without consulting with the patient or relatives.
b. Without taking fresh consent as it's a separate procedure.
Things then went south real quick.
----
Due to closeness of pathways, obvious complications occurred & my dad's life was in danger. The only way to save him? Put a pace-maker in his chest immediately!
So that's what they did: put a temporary pace-maker while informing my mother to immediately catch a flight to Delhi so that they can put a permanent pace-maker the next day.
And you would think, the ordeal would end there? Cute.
----
My parents returned home after a few days & dad was supposed to recover.
But instead, we saw his chest area getting swollen day by day. We freaked out and consulted a cardiologist in Guwahati. And they confirmed the worse: the pace-maker was not installed properly and one of the pipes pierced through his heart.
He needs an urgent emergency open-heart surgery to fix the pace-maker.
So, my family went through another few days of anxiety, stress and disbelief.
----
My dad, is known in our friends and family circles as someone who's always been an super-active person; always engaged in some form of work; be it gardening, fixing electronics, repairing things around the house. My mother used to call him the perfect engineer since he could fix anything compared to the other two engineers in the family viz. me and my sister who were lazy compared to him.
The series of surgeries and a pace-maker did slow my dad down, but couldn't kill his spirit. However, we could see the difference. We would pace himself while climbing stairs etc.
It would hurt us a lot. And him too.
So he decided to drag Batra Hospital to the consumer forum.
----
Our family advocate resides in Kolkata and he agreed to take the case up pro-bono. We assumed it'll be an open and shut case. And since it's consumer court, we assumed it will be quick justice.
Oh, we are so wrong. So so wrong.
My dad attended every single hearing of the case from 2004 till 2015 when he passed away. He used to take a flight from Guwahati while booking a ticket for our advocate from Kolkata. Then there was cost of accommodation in Delhi.
Attending these hearings was no cheap affair. When you add up each hearing over 19 years...it quickly adds up to a large amount.
----
On many occasions, someone from hearing judge bench would be absent so nothing would happen. You get a new date, months in the future.
Or the opposite party advocate would be absent, or cite lame excuses to stall the proceedings. E.g. once the opposite advocate asked the court for a new date since his colleague was stuck in traffic and couldn't reach the court. And we were given a new date!
Imagine the frustration.
And this happened over 11 years till my dad passed away.
----
When dad passed away, Batra Hospital might have heaved a sigh of relief. Can't blame them; they had not yet met my mother.
She decided to continue the fight. That's when I started taking active participation as well.
Let's take a pause and understand why it took so many years?
1. It's a medical case and the judges felt inadequate without proper medical advice.
2. The opposite party was a Padmashree awardee celebrated cardiologist and the hospital was founded by people walking the corridoors of power.
3. Deliberate delays of absenteeism, withdrawing evidence from court etc.
The court asked an independent medical board for their recommendations. The medical board tilted in our favour for obvious reasons: the medical negligence was apparent.
----
Batra hospital tried to confuse the judge's bench by claiming that consent was taken for RFA. When asked to provide evidence, they would repeatedly provide the EPS consent form. This would delay the case and do nothing else.
They also never submitted the EPS traces to the court. They claimed that the traces were provided to my family and they have no record in their system. Which was utterly bullsh*t because we didn't have the traces.
They didn't provide the traces as it would immediately shut the case. Traces will show that the pathways were close, so RFA was not warranted.
Unable to provide consent form & Unable to provide traces went against them.
And in 2018, we won the case in the Delhi state consumer forum. The court awarded 10 lakh (10,00,000 INR) compensation with 7% simple interest from the date of filing the case.
While it was nothing compared to the asked compensation of 80 lakhs, we were happy as it was never about the money anyway.
But our happiness was short-lived, as Batra Hospital decided to appeal the judgement in the higher court: The National Consumer Forum.
----
And so we were back to square one. I promised mom that even if it takes another 14 years, I'll continue the fight.
And so we did. Date after date, hearing after hearing. Same BS all over again.
However, our advocate Mr. Neguive Ahmed is one of the best in the business. A senior citizen himself, he was so frustrated that he took it upon himself to turn Godmode on. I witnessed one of his argument session at court and he ruthlessly thrashed the opposing party left, right and center. He didn't even spare the bench & schooled them for taking forever to deliver a judgement.
This time, he was not going to let it continue for 10 more years. So he pushed at every hearing for shorter dates.
And in 2023, we won again!
Batra was brought to its knees. They can appeal again, yes; but it has to be the Supreme Court.
And after getting their a** whopped twice in a row for 19 years, they didn't have the courage to approach Supreme Court. And finally gave up.
----
It begs a question: Did we really win? And even if we did win technically, at what cost?
I would say, it comes at a price of your mental wellbeing, financial expense, a lot of frustration, shameless advocates and it leaves a bad taste in your mouth.
Batra's advocate is so shameless, he allegedly told our advocate, "We have worked for so many years on the case, won't you give us something? Your client has won a hefty amount"
Bloody bloodsucker! You worked AGAINST us all these years and now you want 'something' for your 'service'?!
----
So, is justice delayed justice denied?
Definitely yes, my family is just happy that the case is over. But we are also happy to have never given up. I understand that it may not be financially possible for everyone to not give up on a long legal battle, but that's what they want: drown you into date after date so that one fine day, you simply give up because it starts looking futile.
If you can, persist. As my mom did and my dad would have.
Even if it's justice denied, it's justice nonetheless for the future patients.
It's like paying for the next person.
At least the next time they perform any surgery that requires consent, they will remember the Goswami family.
Thanks for reading.
ALL THREE PASSENGERS CHETAN SINGH SHOT DEAD WERE MUSLIMS WITH BEARD.
1. He went to different three coaches (B-5, PC, S-6) where he shot his Senior and three bearded Muslim passengers.
Pic 2: At coach coach B-5, Chetan Singh armed with an automatic assault rifle shot from point blank range at Abdul Kaderbhai Bhanpurwala (60) and his senior ASI Tikaram Meena (57).
Pic 3 : After killing these two men in coach B-5, Chetan Singh crossed four other coaches from B-4 to B-1, leaving passengers in these compartments untouched before entering the pantry car where he shot dead a passenger who was identified as Sadar Mohammed Hussain.
Pic 4 : From the pantry car, Chetan Singh then crossed two other coaches, S-8 and S-7, again leaving the passengers in them unscathed, before stopping at S-6. There, he trained his gun on another passenger Asghar Abbas Ali (35) and shot him dead.
After shooting Asghar Abbas Ali at S-6, Chetan Singh began hate-filled rant against Muslims. “… Pakistan se operate hue ye, aur media yehi coverage dikha rahi hai, unko sab pata chal raha hai ye kya kar rahe hain… Agar vote dena hai, agar Hindustan mein rehna hai to mai kehta hoon Modi aur Yogi, ye do hain.”
