The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
I have lost count of how many times I’ve read this book over the years. It is a rare gem of a book, and touches the very core of every heart earnestly seeking its own destiny on the journey of life.
15 powerful quotes from the book:
Unpopular opinion: Most DMarts are just inch away from disaster such as fire and stampede. Aisels are so close, store jam packed, exit points cluttered. Add to that - general lack of civic sense and it's a perfect recipe for disaster.
🚨Trans-fatty acids killing 5.4L a year!
WHO says 4.6% coronary heart disease deaths in India maybe related to trans-fatty acid intake!
Trans fat is considered the worst type of fat to eat. Unlike other dietary fats, trans fats — also called trans-fatty acids — raise "bad" cholesterol and also lowers "good" cholesterol.
Trans fats can also increase the risk for inflammation in the body. This inflammation can have a negative impact on body like heart disease, diabetes, and heart stroke. These kinds of fats should be avoided altogether.
There are 2 kind of trans fat
1️⃣The naturally occurring at a very low levels- found in dairy&meat(are not considered harmful)
2️⃣The Artificial kind that occurs when liquid oils are hardened into Partially Hydrogenated Fats(PHF)
PHF are worse kind of fats.
The manufactured form of trans fat, known as partially hydrogenated oil, can be found in a variety of food products👇
🔸Bakery products such as bread, biscuits, khari, rusk,cakes& cookies
🔸Commercially pre-prepared pizza
🔸Refrigerated dough, such as pizza dough, biscuits and rolls
🔸Margarine, commercial peanut butter
🔸 Vanaspati/ Dalda
🔸Some snack foods—such as chips, crackers
🔸Fried foods, including french fries, doughnuts and fried chicken
🔸Nondairy coffee creamer
So, Don’t just look at the trans fat content of the food; look on the label for the word hydrogenated, and make sure it doesn’t have that on it.
This one simple thing will improve your diet and upgrade the quality of the food you eat. You’ll feel better and you’ll be healthier for it.
Rs 460 for 55gm of cheese popcorn, Rs 360 for 600ml of Pepsi. Total Rs 820 at @_PVRCinemas Noida.
That’s almost equal to annual subscription of @PrimeVideoIN.
No wonder people don’t go to cinemas anymore. Movie watching with family has just become unaffordable.
It wasn't until I'd *taught* algorithms a few times that I finally understood why sorting is in the CS curriculum. Unfortunately, most curricula don't explain this!
It is NOT because sorting is an important algorithm to learn to implement...
I today de-prescribed Bilypsa (Saroglitazar) in four patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-related cirrhosis.
I would like to congratulate the Pharma Lobby for brainwashing ALMOST every Indian general practitioner & Gastroenterologist there is, to prescribe this drug based on not actual recommendation or valid clinical evidence, but through intense push through their medical representative network.
Saroglitazar is an experimental drug in NASH trials. It is not recommended for use in cirrhosis or even in NAFLD-NASH.
It was found to increase weight gain & has no known benefits on liver fibrosis studied through gold standard assessment of liver biopsy. Most of its "celebrated" trials are published in only abstract form. A proper biopsy-based trial did not show statistical significance compared to placebo with regards fat-related liver inflammation.
The largest EVIDENCES-IV trial on Saroglitazar also did not show significant reduction in liver fibrosis - but only liver fat reduction - which can be achieved by exercise, weight loss and diabetes control - a cheaper option than using Saroglitazar.
Saroglitazar is not recommended by the Asia-Pacific Assoc for Study of Liver (APASL), American Assoc for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) or the European Association for the Study of Liver (EASL).
But the Indian drug controller has approved this drug for use in India after the company showed them "supposedly" strong data from small-low quality trials and without level 1 or 2 evidence publication.
Let me remind you that the same drug controller also approved the nonsense anti-Covid drug 2-DG which was nothing but glucose.
It is a shame that specialists and super-specialists in India are prescribing this expensive drug - right, left and center for patients, even for just ultrasound-detected fatty liver without any quality evidence for its use.
Doctors, please stop catering to the Pharma and start catering to your patients.
Not just Balewadi but most of the housing socities in new areas like mhalunge , hinjawadi , wakad , wagholi are being exploited by tankers & due to lack of facilities by PMC & PCMC .
People really need to think if we are getting facilities before voting .
As "diabetes capital" we need policies that will-
-lift everyone out of hunger & poverty
-curb pollution
-make cities walking/ cycling friendly
Instead what we get are ads that tell us-
-there's fibre in biscuits
-protein in powders
-sugarfree halwa can be eaten without guilt
A/ It is extremely important that thinking people grasp the basics of our modern global monetary system. What you do not know can hurt you. Here is a very basic outline.
1. Nations export to the US and receive dollars.
2. Nations export to nations that export to US.
