For every failure of the government, the multinational market is being pushed as the panacea. This article makes no mention of eggs, dairy or animal foods. Clearly their way to deliver protein will come from a lab! businessworld.in/article/Protei…
Why should rice be fortified by international micronutrient companies when egg and animal food production can be locally strengthened, which are nutritionally superior and gives employment to lakhs of Indians? downtoearth.org.in/news/food/fort…
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have unethical conflict of interest by promoting studies that vilify animal foods and pave the way for "lab created proteins" using GM junk ijme.in/articles/joint…
The Eat Lancet Commission comprising vegans is pushing the false narrative that India is a 'role model' for vegetarianism. Their agenda? Reduce healthy natural food consumption& bring in lab based cheap GM concoctions. Why are we not more concerned? thewire.in/food/eat-lance…

Most patients with dengue recover in 1-2 weeks with rest and some basic medication. About 4-5% can develop dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) which is life threatening requiring emergency management and hospital admission. (1)
About 1% of patients with dengue can die. Some of the things that help with dengue are rest (avoid strenuous exertion), plenty of fluids (lime/orange juice, buttermilk), good protein diet, mild painkillers like paracetamol (not more than 2-3 tabs a day 4 hours apart). (2)
Many people vouch by papaya leaf juice, some have mentioned kiwi but I don’t know enough about that. Have never heard of dragon fruit & for sure its an exotic fruit & very expensive. Wouldn’t recommend it over & above these other things. Mostly it just gets better on its own. (3)

Innocent (Indian) vegetarian PART 2

Jain groups file PILs on meat-eaters and demand a ban - the exaggerated vegetarian fragility syndrome (EVFS).
"I won't eat and will punish anyone else who does" - but I'm SO INNOCENT (2)

Innocent (Indian) vegetarian PART 3

When all religions/all caste groups are forced to give up their eating preferences because of EVFS.

What if a family wanted to celebrate a birthday or occasion in their lives with a meat party?

About Vitamin A

Presence of fat in the diet is important for the absorption of fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and carotene present in the diet. (1)
Vitamin A is required for vision and integrity of epithelial cells (in mucosa/hollow organs). If Vitamin A is less, it can lead to permanent blindness. Retinol or preformed vitamin A is found in butter, ghee, whole milk, curd, egg yolk, liver etc. (2)
Liver oils of fish like cod, halibut, shark and saw fish are the richest natural sources of the vitamin. It is completely absorbed by the body. (3)

"Children from non-dominant caste and religious backgrounds are also the ones that bear the brunt of malnutrition. A study found that casteism was linked to stunted growth — often caused by poor nutrition in the first 1,000 days of a child’s life."
theswaddle.com/karnataka-scho…
"Data suggests that children from the Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe community were 14% more likely to be stunted than dominant-caste Hindu children; children from the OBC community were 10% more likely, and upper-caste Muslim children 9%."
The National Institute of Nutrition has made the inclusion of eggs in mid-day meals mandatory since “they are considered cheaper, safer, more nutritious, and easier to procure than alternatives such as milk or bananas,” The Wire reported in 2018.
