White sugar, honey, and jaggery, 3 different names of the same thing, 'sugar'. The later 2 have some micronutrients but there is a BIG 'but' to consider these 'healthy'. Thread #nutrition
Jaggery is considered a better choice as compare to white/brown sugar because, it contains a small amount of B vitamins & minerals, including calcium, Iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium & sodium. 10 gm Jaggery provides 36 KCAL (minimal protein, no fat, and 8.5g carbs).
Jaggery has a glycemic index (GI) of 84, which makes it a poor dietary choice. Also need to eat a lot of jaggery to get a meaningful amount of these nutrients, which you can get in much greater amounts from other sources.

Eggs have gotten a bad reputation because the yolks are high in cholesterol. But cholesterol isn’t that simple. The more cholesterol you eat, the less your body produces.

Science says up to 3 whole eggs per day is perfectly safe for healthy people. 🧵
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8857917/Image
Before we go ahead, it's important to understand dietary cholesterol and its role in raising LDL? Existing epidemiological data have clearly demonstrated that dietary cholesterol is not correlated with increased risk for cardiac diseases.

How many egg yolks are too many? That's debatable.

Common recommendations include a maximum of 2–6 yolks per week. However, this claim lacks scientific backing.

📌The #COVID19 Vaccine: Myths & Facts

1. COVID-19 vaccines are unsafe because it was developed quickly.

Fact: The authorized vaccines are proven safe & effective. Although they were developed in record time, they have gone through the same rigorous approval process as others.
2. I have already had COVID once; why vaccinate now?

Fact: Those who have had COVID-19 in the past have no method to tell if reinfection of the COVID-19 virus will happen or not even if they have developed some natural immunity. So, it's important to take the vaccine.
3. I will get COVID-19 if I take a vaccine.

Fact: None of the COVID-19 vaccines can give you the COVID-19 infection that you dread. None of these vaccines uses the live virus that causes COVID-19.
