India has a strange blind spot when it comes to eggs. For starters, we have, against all common sense, declared it non-veg, which automatically comes attached with moral baggage, and then on top of that, even in families that eat meat, the idiotic idea that eggs are “heating” (taseer) reduces its daily/weekly consumption.
Sideloading is fundamental to Android, and it's not going anywhere. As we said in our blog, our new developer identity requirements are designed to protect users and developers from bad actors, not to limit choice. We want to make sure that if you download an app from a developer, regardless of where you get it, it's actually from them. That's it. https://t.co/SlTRpYIvqL
Terrible to hear this. Especially when its such a young person. That said, the comments section under this post shows that the collective IQ of Indian social media user/ consumer is definitely negative and critical thinking skills among Indian Twitter users is eclipsed by terrifyingly deep sentiments towards anti-science stance and conspiracy theories.
Educate yourselves.
No. Vaccine does not cause sudden cardiac deaths in young men or women, or even in older adults in India.

No. Consuming whey protein does not cause sudden heart attacks and death in gym goers. In fact, highest quality of evidence shows that whey protein supplementation reduces cardiometabolic risk factors and has beneficial effects on cardiac health, including lowering blood pressure and improving lipid profiles.

Yes. Covid infection increased risk of hearts attacks and stroke in young individuals up to three years later especially when they were UNVACCINATED during the initial waves.

No. Creatine supplements do not cause sudden cardiac death. In fact creatine improves heart muscle function EVEN IN patients with a failing heart! Creatine supplementation is safe and offer benefits for cardiovascular health, particularly for individuals with heart failure or those recovering from heart attacks.

Yes. The most common cause of sudden cardiac death in young adults is still myocardial infarction or MI - meaning, a serious medical condition where blood flow to the heart muscle is abruptly blocked, causing damage or death to the heart tissue due to oxygen deprivation. The second most common cause is arrythmias (abrupt abnormal heart rate and rhythm) and cardiomyopathy (genetic disease that weakens the heart). All of this can be due to variety of reasons including genetic risk factors, strong family history of heart disease, use of tobacco and alcohol and certain drugs. None of which include vaccines, whey proteins, creatine or going to the gym.

Yes. Anabolic steroid use and stimulant drugs increase the risk of cardiac disease in body builders ALONG WITH additional risk factors that promote cardiac disease (genetics, family history, alcohol, smoking, history of certain infections). Of these, stanozolol has been implicated in heart attacks and testosterone supplementation too. Anabolic steroids like stanozolol increases risk of myocardial infarction while prolonged testosterone supplementation increases blood viscosity (it boosts haemoglobin) leading to thickening of blood and sluggish flow inside heart vessels leading to possible increase in blocks during highly strenuous activity.

Physical activity improves longevity.
Resistance training increases longevity.
Going to the gym and working out is perfectly fine.
That said, people can be "fit" even without looking "shredded" or "bulked."
But follow a fitness regimen that is natural and safe. Avoid anabolic steroids and stimulants and unnecessary hormone supplementation. Use whey and creatine in their recommended dose. Screen for family history of cardiac disease or sudden cardiac deaths. Perform a basic cardiovascular health check up before hitting high intensity training. Stay away from alcohol and tobacco. Update vaccination status for age. You'll be just fine.
Volvo XC90, renowned as one of the safest cars in the world, has recorded zero fatal crashes in UK since its launch in 2002.
Imagine investing in this car for its unmatched safety, only to face a tragic end because a car in the opposite lane suddenly slows down, causing a container truck behind it to lose control, jump the divider, and crush you, your spouse, three kids, and a relative.
Not the Volvo's fault, as any car would have crushed under such heavy weight—just an unfortunate twist of fate. Sad how death can find you in the most unexpected ways, even when you've done everything to stay safe.

Thank you @SumiSukanya for reporting in detail, our pro-public health study on quality of protein supplements sold in India for @ThePrintIndia
A fantastic independently performed, citizen targeted project, funded by @paraschopra, now peer reviewed and published in Medicine®. The regulatory bodies and manufacturers are yet to respond to queries raised in this report and on our study. @arifhussaintm

In certain Nordic countries like Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden, a long-standing tradition from the early 20th century involves allowing babies to nap outdoors during cold weather.
This custom is based on the belief that exposing infants to fresh air, even in freezing temperatures, can strengthen their immune systems and promote overall health.
In the 1950s, some parents and institutions in the Soviet Union also embraced this practice.
An illustration of this custom can be observed in a 1958 photograph taken in Moscow, depicting a line of infants peacefully sleeping outside in prams, bundled up with blankets and fur hats.
