Can we in our communities contribute to have dog trainers train the Indian street dogs to bark a lot at the vehicles polluting heavily (above a limit)? Would that help to make the drivers realize that they're not only harming others but also themselves? Can we share this with dog trainers and that try to do this if any dog trainers are professionally interested? It's highly unfortunate that Indian street dogs are living in such pathetic conditions and that they can't even do anything like humans for the same. Best! Shakti

Today at a gym having high quality international equipment, there was a bottle on a dumbbell chair. So I asked a person who works at the gym for help regarding the bottle that who's is it because I wanted to use that chair. The person responded that how can he know and that he said that I can move it. I told him that I can't and that's why I'm asking the gym on which he said that what can he do about it which was shocking since it seems that he works in sales. By then some floor cleaner was passing by there on which he called the cleaner and said that the cleaner would help me. By then some member picked up the bottle.

Then when I went to use the dumbbell chair, I found that the seat was moving left and right quite a lot and that it was highly unstable. I told a trainer about this. When I was leaving the gym, I told some other trainers including senior trainers about this that this can be lethal on which a senior trainer said that this cannot be lethal. I then explained that someone who doesn't know well about working out if sits on it and does shoulder press with dumbbell and that if the person loses a bit of control then that  person can even get paralyzed and then I again said that this is lethal on which the senior trainer didn't say that it's not lethal. I told them that they should've removed this chair right away at least after I brought it to notice on which I heard comments like it would take few rupees to buy a screw to fix it which might even be right, however, the fix being very simple doesn't mean the problem isn't very serious. They removed the chair from the workout floor after that. 

I don't think that these people at the gym mean any harm to anyone, however, how much concerned are they for their clients? The punching bag is damaged on which I asked why. I was told that the clients don't use it properly and that it was getting lose from the bottom and then it broke because the clients didn't tighten it when it was lose. I said that I was noticing the bag to be lose for several days. Shouldn't the gym be maintaining it on which I was told by a senior trainer that whoever he trains on the punching bag, he tells them on how to properly use it. I told him that I don't think that all clients have been trained by him on it and so how can he expect that the clients would ensure that it's tight. Moreover, it had been getting lose for days and I thought that the gym would do something about it because I didn't know what to do about it. I wasn't told by this or any other trainer that keep tightening the bag to its base. Moreover, wouldn't this be like a regular task to do by the gym for maintaining its equipment?

During the workout, another trainer came and told me to re-rack the weights. I told him that I've spoken to the owner about this issue that there are members willing to contribute to hire someone who can wipe clean and re-rack the equipment and also wipe clean the benches on a very frequent basis on which the owner had said that my feedback has been received and that some days later the owner had even asked me later if anyone asked me again for it. I thought that this issue was addressed. Getting quality to high quality things from around the world is great, however, then such experiences are highly unfortunate.

Aisi Indianness kitni? How much is such Indianness? How to become like the best in our world? Kya Indian in general sochta hai ki uski soch kaisi hai? Does Indian in general think that how is that person's thinking? This is happening at a very expensive gym by Indian standards. I took a friend to the gym yesterday who runs a shop to show him if he might be interested on which he said it's very expensive.

Hi All,

In this blog post, I'll share in the comments below about Physiotherapy Theory, Techniques and Tools.

You can also browse Physical Therapy India www.facebook.com/PhysicalTherapyIndia. 

Physical therapists formed their first professional association in 1921, called the American Women's Physical Therapeutic Association. Led by President Mary McMillan, an executive committee of elected officers governed the Association, which included 274 charter members. By the end of the 1930s, the Association changed its name to the American Physiotherapy Association. Men were admitted, and membership grew to just under 1,000.

With the advent of World War II and a nationwide polio epidemic during the 1940s and 1950s, physical therapists were in greater demand than ever before. The Association's membership swelled to 8,000, and the number of physical therapy education programs across the US increased from 16 to 39.

By the late 1940s, the Association had changed its name to the American Physical Therapy Association, hired a full-time staff, and opened its first office in New York City.

My Experiences of Benefits Of Steam Bath:

1. The most common and obvious reason is to relieve tension buildup and various forms of stress.

2. Steam bath will definitely give people a soothing and relaxing effect most especially after a hard day’s work.

From http://www.jagranjosh.com/current-affairs/indoswiss-bilateral-meeting-concluded-at-geneva-on-sidelines-of-world-health-assembly-1369117412-1 

A bilateral meeting between Union Minister of Health & Family Welfare, India, Ghulam Nabi Azad and Minister of Health Switzerland, Alain Berset, was concluded on 20 May 2013 at Geneva. The meeting was held on the sidelines of World Health Assembly at Geneva. The aim of the meeting was to give further impetus to cooperation in the field of healthcare.

In the meeting, it was decided that an MoU between the two countries will be inked soon for broadening the scope of bilateral ties. The major areas of cooperation of that MoU will be: 

• Non-Communicable Diseases including controlling the associated risk factors of tobacco use, harmful alcohol use, unhealthy diet, etc.

• Communicable Diseases and Anti- Microbial resistance
• Universal Health Coverage
• Maternal & Child health
• Sexual & Reproductive Health
• Health & Medical Research
• Therapeutic Products
• Electronic Medical Records
• Global Health Governance

In the meeting, it was exuded that Switzerland will extend full support to India on global platforms in order to carry forward the pursuits of providing high quality generic medicines at affordable prices.

From http://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ani/indo-swiss-bilateral-meet-held-at-geneva-113052100284_1.html

Speaking on the occasion, Azad said that friendship between India and Switzerland goes as back as Independence of India, strongly rooted as it is in shared values of multi-culturalism, democracy and rule of law.

Recalling the historic ties between the two countries, Azad said that a treaty of friendship between India and Switzerland was signed at New Delhi as early as 1948, soon after India's independence.

Emphasizing the special nature of relationship between the two countries, Azad said that many high level visits have been exchanged in the recent past and that many bilateral institutional arrangements like Indo-Swiss Joint Commission, Swiss- India Chamber of Commerce, Indo-Swiss Joint Committee on Science and technology, etc. exist to further cement our strong relations.

Azad noted that in the continuum of strong Indo-Swiss bilateral cooperation, an MOU between the two countries will be inked soon to further broaden the scope of bilateral ties.

"Considerable progress has been made in this regard and an MOU in the field of health is being signed to promote bilateral cooperation between the two countries", Azad said.

Hi All, 

I'd like to thank Ms. Sonia Bajaj to consent for the interview with the Health and Fitness India network. Our Q&A are as follows:

Photo: Ms. Sonia Bajaj, Fitness and Nutrition Coach, giving award at MISS North India 2013. Facebook photo link

1. Why did you decide to enter the fitness industry? 

After delivering 2 boys as any other woman tried to cut down on that extra fat on my body. Tried all kinds of yo yo diets, paid a good amount of money to the so called dieticians. Kept on going through the same circle of loosing few kilos on scale, and as soon as quitted the diet, went back to square one.

Finally planned to give up all diets, started exercising and eating a balanced diet, which could be followed life long. I saw such awesome changes in my body, not only in terms of fat loss, but also in terms of strength, stamina, agility, power.

I became a happier soul, more confident. So decided that if can share my experience with all those men and women who are struggling for years to lose fat in a right way, so that it never comes back, would be a great achievement for me.

Hence totally dedicated myself to promoting health and fitness.

2. What are your specialties as a fitness professional? 

I've done my group certification with Reebok.

I've done my Personal Training certification with AMERICAN COUNCIL ON EXERCISE.

I'm certified in Pilates, Kickboxing, and Prenatal and Postnatal workouts.

I've done workshops in TRX AND BOSU workouts.

I'm a certified nutritionist by BFY MUMBAI.

People ask me WHERE ARE THE MACHINES IN YOUR GYM.

3. What's a great piece of advise that you've given to a client?

I see a lot of excellent and certified fitness coaches here in India. But what I have realized is that what we need as per the times is Fitness motivators.

We have to train the brain before training any other muscle group. People give it up very fast, everyone is looking for a short cut.

4. Can you please share any major mistakes that fitness professionals make?

My piece of advice to my clients and every one reading this is that take care of your body.

Just give 30 minutes 5 days a week to yourself.

SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN YOURSELF, FAT LOSS WILL BE THE ICING ON THE CAKE.

5. Where do you see yourself professionally in the next five and ten years from now?

Few year from now I see people following what I try to enforce today;

FAT LOSS IS NOT A ONE DAY, ONE MONTH OR ONE YEAR PROJECT,

It's a LIFESTYLE CHANGE.

In this blog, I'll be sharing posts related to water pollution in India. I'll be sharing issues and also on basic to advanced solutions for reducing and stopping it. I welcome you to comment with anything of value. I wish that all of us realize that water pollution harms us, our family and friends, and our society and world at large. What's the point of earning money that will mostly go to curing diseases and that one wouldn't even be well enough to enjoy any of the remaining money? I wish that we can do much better than how things are in India and that if you wonder that why we Indians haven't been able to have things much better then I also wonder about our elders for the same, however, I also think that just by saying that they were/are useless or not good enough wouldn't help. We've to make the issue of water pollution a critical issue in our lives since water is critical for our lives without which we can't even live and that if we're drinking polluted water then seriously how well are we living? Can we think of the Indian street dogs who drink just whatever that they get? We're humans who're capable in general and that we can at least significantly reduce the issue of water pollution by all of us working together intelligently, smartly, and with common sense.

FOOD ADULTERATION IN INDIA

Hi All, Please share about food adulteration with your family and friends which should also help to make things better or else your conditions might also keep worsening. I share details below from different sources but can't say for their correctness.

Do at least those children who drink milk of educated Indian mothers in general learn that India is ranked 79 for Quality and Safety in Global Food Security index

http://foodsecurityindex.eiu.com/Country/Details#India 

18 March 2016: Hindustan Times: 2 out of 3 Indians drink milk laced with detergent, urea and paint http://www.hindustantimes.com/health-and-fitness/2-out-of-3-indians-drink-milk-laced-with-detergent-urea-and-paint/story-xfyd7SY6i30KcWjLD38HsI.html

16 March 2016: Some of the most commonly occurring heavy metals in our daily foods are cadmium, lead, arsenic and mercury. All of these lead to serious health implications, primarily causing damage to healthy tissue. "Long term exposure to cadmium causes fragile bones and decreased bone strength whereas mercury causes damage to stomach and intestines," said Khandare.

28 July 2015: Now, states in India show contamination in water & milk

In water, Chandigarh showed 100 per cent adulteration, Jharkhand 75 per cent, Andhra Pradesh 70 per cent, Karnataka 66 per cent and Tamil Nadu 58 per cent out of the samples collected for testing from each state or union territory.

Many states, which had showed considerable levels of adulteration in bottled water in the previous financial year, have not given their data for this year. Gujarat at 40 per cent, Haryana 30 per cent and Uttar Pradesh at 28 per cent contamination last year, are among the states with no data for 2014-15, as per Parliament reply given on July 24.

In milk too, there are many absentees in 2014-15 including Gujarat, Delhi, West Bengal, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, with these states offering no data. Himachal Pradesh showed 92 per cent of its milk samples being contaminated, while others with high level of adulteration were Jharkhand at 45 per cent, Chhattisgarh at 38 per cent, Jammu & Kashmir at 32 per cent and Madhya Pradesh at 28 per cent.

Ab to Indian maa Insaan hogi to phir bhi bachche ko Indian sadak ke suar jaisa experience mil raha ho sakta hai aur maa ko bhi aur doosro ko bhi.

Indian suar agar positive soch kar bhi koode se hi khayega to phir positive kaise khayega? Insaan to kya nahi soch aur kar sakta hai for our society, environment and world. Aapne socha aur kiya at least apne aur family ke liye about milk?

18th October 2014: Beware of spurious sweets and milk products during festive (Diwali) season

Some of the adulterants that are used in milk are water, chalk, urea, caustic soda and skimmed milk, while Khoya is adulterated with paper, refined oil and skimmed milk powder. Similarly, potato and Vanaspati have been found to contaminate Ghee, while the silver topping that is found on top of most mithais is often aluminium. Similarly, the Saffron thread that decorates mithai is often just dried and coloured corn hair. Combine all this together and you have the recipe for one big, bad stomach ache, if not worse!

So, now that you know why you ought to be careful about where you buy you sweets from and what to watch out for, we come to the next question – how do you know if the goods are spurious or not ! There are several ways methods you can employ to check whether the sweets you have bought are adulterated.

http://cityairnews.com/content/beware-spurious-sweets-and-milk-products-during-festive-season

Dr Virendra Yadav, Senior Medical Officer, BK Hospital said, “With the consumption of these adulterated sweets and chocolates, many diseases can occur. Chances of severe stomach infection and food poisoning can happen. Colours are added to the sweets which contain carbon and heavy metal that causes asthama and allergies. If one eats these adulterated sweets for long then later it may develop into cancer.”

26th September 2014: INDIA MILK ADULTERATION NEWS:

"...adulterating milk of various local as well as national brands"

Good the person was caught but what would such people generally do when they're back in society?

I also wonder the bad to very bad things that happened to people who consumed such milk and probably are consuming such milk or their made products.

Does a song like this ever play in your head that chote mote suar teri muththi mein kya hai if and when you're thinking that how unsure you're about the food quality around you.

It's great that we're humans and that the best people in our world have already done so much research and development for us to use and make things increasingly better for us.

18th September 2014: "Go for the eggs of which the hens were raised cage free (with actual room to roam), fed an organic diet, & were not pumped with antibiotics, steroids, etc. These chickens are--at least--a little less stressed, more natural, & in turn healthier. The result? A better egg, in terms of health."

Read this somewhere and wondered how many Indians feel like having been brought up to live as best or even average humans? Of course, Indian street pigs, forest tigers and other animals would live how they are, however, we're humans.

Maa suarni to most likely uska bachcha jeeye poorly lekin hum to insaan hai. Can you please share more about eggs if you know?

19th August 2014: Dairy owners use hair bleach chemical to prolong life of milk

Officials have discovered that to prolong life of milk and milk products, many dairy owners had been using a cocktail of chemicals whose consumption can damage kidney and liver.

Food and drug officials detected Hydrogen peroxide (a common paper and hair bleaching agent), potassium hydroxide (used in soap preparation) and hypo (a bleaching agent) in milk recently.

This is the first time when the department noticed use of these chemicals whose short term consumption can cause gastroenteritis but damage liver and kidneys if ingested for a longer period.

Of these, hydrogen peroxide in particular is almost impossible to detect in laboratory tests, leading the officials to suspect the dairies could have been using these in plenty.

Usually, food security officer said, dairy owners mixed argemone oil, a poisonous substance, and starch in milk during preparations of products like paneer and mawa.

In fact, food security officer, it was the presence of a tin containing huge quantity of hydrogen peroxide at a dairy which alerted them about the misuse of these chemicals.

11th June 2014: Identifying artificially ripened mango

* Put mango in a container with water

* If it sinks to the bottom, it has been ripened naturally

* If it floats, it has matured with the help of calcium carbide

* Chemically matured mangoes also have distorted wrinkles on the skin 

* They also taste different and have a pungent odour

“The Prevention of Food Adulteration act (1955) prohibits usage of such chemicals on food articles.

It has serious effects on health and can even cause cancer. It contains traces of arsenic, phosphorous and on reaction with water, produces acetylene gas.

It is severely irritating to eyes and direct contact may even lead to blindness. On contact with skin, it causes severe irritation, and rashes with burns.

On ingestion, it causes nausea, vomiting, headache, and burns in the gastrointestinal tract.

On inhalation, it leads to coughing, irritation of the throat, irregular breathing, shortness of breath and even pulmonary oedema.

It is neurotoxic and causes headache, dizziness, sleepiness, loss of memory, cerebral oedema, mental confusion and even seizures."

25th May 2014: Indian Cows Are Producing Toxic Milk Because They Are Grazing On Garbage When they return to their dairies their milk is adulterated with paint, detergents, caustic soda, urea and shampoo, the court heard.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/india/10609139/Indias-cows-producing-toxic-milk.html

Carpenter and maid came together. Carpenter asked for more money than it was agreed for and said that the higher amount was agreed for. This makes me think that is your maid harming you without you and she even realizing it? Do you wash the utensils once again to remove any stuck chemicals used by maid to wash the utensils? Also see:  

When girls in India start drinking mother's milk then do they start becoming inferior from their initial human potential and does that make them suffer even more in life due to harmed mind and body?

11th May 2014: According to traders, almost 70% of the coconut oil sold through unbranded retail network is impure

Unfortunately, scientific detection of adulteration is very difficult as normal lab testing is ineffective in the case of coconut oil. Adulterated oil having coconut oil to the tune of 30 per cent exhibits the same quality and aroma as that of pure coconut oil.

7th May 2014: How much of this is also coming into India: Carrot, bean, tomato, lettuce, capsicum, banana, apple, pineapple and mango were contaminated with highly toxic pesticides. And the presence of banned pesticide Aldrin was found in milk, the test found.

http://www.thedailystar.net/frontpage/govt-found-not-serious-22238

Please also learn and think about what's coming in from our world. It's wonderful to get high-tech and advanced scientific solutions from our world, however, it's not to get such harmful things. It's nice that people there are also active about reducing this severely harmful issue.

29th April 2014: How can one distinguish between artificially ripened mangoes and organically grown ones? The following link shares about color, taste, texture and color of pulp and juice as factors.

http://www.thehealthsite.com/diseases-conditions/how-to-identify-artificially-ripened-mangoes/

What are the ill-effects of artificially ripened mangoes?

Dr Shah says, ‘Chemicals and pesticides cause a variety of diseases, some of the ill effects, they are known hormone disruptors leading to an increase in the number of hormonal diseases today like hypothyroid, polycstic ovaries, diabetes etc. Apart from that, they have been known to lead to Parkinson’s disease, cancer, and worst of all are passed on from mother to child via breast milk.

Is it possible to get rid of the chemicals by washing them properly or eating them without the outer skin?

‘Perhaps a small part but not a large enough amount of it. Wash the fruits well but you will still feel the burning sensation and carry all the ill effects,’ says Dr Shah.

21st April 2014: Jiski maa Indian woh in general kaisa khana khila rahi hogi aur usse log kaise ban rahe honge? With such low punishment for such a serious crime, how many people might keep doing this and causing us harm?  It's great that these people were caught due to great work of others, however, how many more would be doing this and which would also depend on how Indian mothers in general are making their children that we've people doing such things and other people not able to mostly stop this and that our condition has worsened so much. I wish us best.

In India, use of calcium carbide is strictly banned as per PoFA (Prevention of Food Adultration) Act [Section 44AA], because it contain the traces of arsenic and phosphorus, which pose a serious threat to human health. Acetylene gas, a by-product of calcium carbide, creates heat. It is mainly used as a fuel and in welding, and contains toxic impurities that affect the nervous system. When acetylene is filled amidst the fruit in a box, it heats the fruit on the outside, and thus the mangoes and oranges turn yellow or orange, as the case may be.

http://www.freshplaza.com/article/120072/India-Calcium-Carbide-still-used-to-ripen-fruits

"Though we had inspected fruit shops and godowns across the district, it's the first time we are seizing mangoes and calcium carbide together. It's a grave offence and the person can get a prison term of up to three years and a fine of up to Rs5 lakh for engaging in such a criminal activity," said a food safety official.

http://www.freshplaza.com/article/120072/India-Calcium-Carbide-still-used-to-ripen-fruits

6th April 2014: Jiski maa insaan woh kaisa doodh pilaye? Today it’s more than likely that your glassful of doodh, or milk, contains everything from contaminated water, urea and milk powder to detergent, bleaching agents and the (banned) hormone oxytocin. 

All the entrepreneurs emphasize their humane dairy farming practices—free-range cows “pampered” with tailor-made feed free of any pesticides, on-call nutritionists and veterinarians, mechanized milking, no hormones or antibiotics, and the fact that the milk is absolutely untouched till it reaches the customer’s doorstep. 

All these brands are, of course, available at a premium. Insaan hona bhi to premium hai sadak ke kutte, suar aur jungle ke sher, hathi se. I wish an increasing number of people would be able to get pure milk.

30th March 2014: Senior superintendent of police (SSP) Kamaljeet Singh Dhillon said that the raids were conducted on a tip-off that some milk-sellers were preparing synthetic milk and other products by using  adulterated milk products at Longiwind. 
 
"We have seized 25,000 litres of adulterated milk from two canter tanks and 8 kg desi ghee," said the SSP.

8th March 2014: How do Indian women feel being an Indian on International Women's Day? What do you do for yourself and for your future to feel great as Indian? Perhaps it also depends on what you've learned from previous generations. How would you make the future generations?

Please share with people about our issues to make them aware so that they would reduce doing things that harm us. Think of how pigs and tigers goes after their food and then think of how humans should go after their food.

The Delhi High Court today termed as "alarming" the findings of an expert committee on the status of pesticide residues in food commodities and said almost entire 1.75 crore Delhiites eat fruits and vegetables which are not fit for human consumption.

The NGO Consumer Voice, one of the petitioners in the court, said the quantum of pesticides in fruits and vegetables in India, especially those sold in Delhi markets, was as much as 750 times the European standards.

The NGO claimed that of the five internationally banned pesticides, four were found to be common in vegetables sold here.

The move had come after some NGOs submitted survey reports that vegetables and fruits sold in the city's markets contain poisons capable of causing cancer and harming the nervous system and liver.

4th March 2014: “We may be eating dangerous dye, sawdust, soap, stone, industrial starch or aluminium foil along with food,” said Assistant Professor of Chemistry Leena Singh, who has done research in adulteration. Adulteration is easy money for traders and slow poisoning, disease or death for consumers. What we eat can be unsafe, unhygienic or harmful when nutritious elements in them are killed. “An easy example of food adulteration is vanaspati in desi ghee.” Adulterants when used in illicit drugs are called cutting agents, deliberate addition of toxic adulterants to food or other products for human consumption is known as poisoning. These adulterants are often highly carcinogenic and when consumed over a continuous period of time can stunt growth and cause serious ailments.

Indian sadak ki kutiya, suarni ya aur koi janwar to bahut kuch khila rahi hogi apne ko aur apne bachchon ko. Usme se insaan ka pheka hua khana bhi hoga. Insaan apna khana great karega to sadak ke janwaron ko bhi behter khana mil sakta hai. Aur phir, sadak pe janwar to hone hi nahin chahiye jahan ki janwaron ki natural jagah na ho. Jaa raha hun ON 100% Whey Gold Standard protein supplement khareedne. Mehenga hai lekin chahiye bhi.

(Indian street female dog, pig or other animals would be feeding several things to self and to their children. In that, there'll be food thrown away by humans. If humans would make their food great then street animals could also get better food. And then, there shouldn't be animals on the street where there's no natural place for the animals. I'm going to buy ON 100% Whey Gold Standard protein supplement. It's expensive but required.)

27th February 2014: While silver and gold are inert metals that do not harm the body’s composition, adulterants like aluminium, nickel and copper cause serious side affects to one’s health, including skin diseases, breathing problems and irregularities in the heart. While most of the established shops use pure varks, smaller nondescript shops tend to market adulterated vark.

Chandi (silver) vark was initially introduced in Hyderabad for its medicinal purposes in Unani and Ayurveda. It was later picked up as a decorative garnish by confectionary makers.

Suarni bhi Indian banaye, Sherni bhi Indian banaye aur Insaan bhi Indian banaye. Kya aap vark khaate aur khilate hai bina check kiye ki theek hai ki nahi. Thank You Germany for your technological solution. 

So how does one tell a good vark from an adulterated one, considering that both silver and aluminium tend to look the same when drawn into sheets?:

23rd February 2014: When asked if the wax coated on most apples is safe to consume, Dr Priyanka Rohatgi, Chief Clinical Nutritionist and Head, Nutrition and Dietetics, Apollo Hospitals, says, “We are not sure of the composition of the wax but it is unfit for human consumption. Wax should never be consumed.”

1st February 2014: "...a large portion of it [milk] is a toxic cocktail of white paint, caustic soda, detergent, shampoo, urea, starch and blotting paper that is harmful for the heart, lungs, liver and can even cause cancer."

Aur in sadak ke janwaron ka kya hoga? Jab doodh ki mithai sadak par phik gayi aur suaron, kutton aur doosre janwaron ne kha liya to unka kya hoga? Yeh janwar sadak pe nahin rehne chahiye kyunki yeh to apne liye kuch kar bhi nahin sakte jaise ki insaan kar sakte hai. "the menace was most rampant during festival seasons when the demand peaks."

16th January 2014: I had found an organic milk shop nearby. However, someone who owns cows nearby told mom that the organic shop takes milk from them. I don't know what that organic milk shop does what this milk. However, mom stopped getting milk from that organic shop.

I've heard similar about other organic shops also that they aren't as organic as they claim to be. If you're buying organic then try to check if it's really organic.

2nd January 2014: Ginger coloring inside - Is this due to harmful chemicals like acid wash? I bought this yesterday, 1st Jan 2014, evening from street vendor. I'm not an Indian street pig or any other animal but human and hence I share to ask and also make others aware about whether they check what they buy and also how can be their food when they eat outside. Do you wonder how our previous generations in general have been that we've such issues now. Is it possible to very easily complain about this to authority and that immediate action is taken due to public health at possibly high risk. What are you doing to make things better? I wish us best!

17th December 2013: Time to buy organic! Why? Plates loaded with pesticides: Survey shows fruit, vegetables are high on chemical content.

God, Is eating such like Indian street pig eating from filth who's really not doing anything about the harmful things in its food? Sadak ke suar jaisa kya God? Kaisa Indian bana rahe hain God? Indian sadak ke suar jaisa nahin baniye. Jab boards lagte the ki dogs and Indians not allowed then parents kya kehte the children ko ki aaj aise issues hain. Indian ki maa in general bachche ko sadak ka suar jaisa banane mein ya jungle ka sher jaisa banane mein ya duniya ka insaan jaisa banane mein best hai? Mother India ko help kariye. Aisi problem ko end kariye. Please sabko aware kariye ki woh great society and environment build and grow karen. Please help.

We are literally consuming poisons. Let’s have a brief look:

Brinjal: Chemical found is Heptachlor, 860% above the legal limit
Cabbage: Chemical found is Cypermethrin, 95.5% above the legal limit
Okra: Chemical found is Heptachlor, 55% above the legal limit
Rice: Chemical found is Chlorfenvinfos, 1324% above the legal limit
Banana: Chemical found is Chlorodane, 54% above the legal limit
Cauliflower: Chemical found is Aldrin, 320% above the legal limit
Apple: Chemical found is Dichlorvas, 140% above the legal limit

In a study conducted by the Kerala Agricultural University, “dangerous levels” of pesticide residues have been found in many main vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage, small red onions, curry leaves, green chillies, etc. About three years ago, Profenofos, which is a second-level pesticide, was banned in India, except for tea and cotton. But its residues have been found in vegetables like gooseberries, green chilli, okra, curry leaves, mint leaves and coriander leaves.

Consuming pesticide-laden fruits and vegetables for a long period of time can prove fatal. Health experts say that pesticides are neurotoxins, affecting the nervous system and other important organs such as liver and kidney. Food poisoning and different sorts of allergies are common from these pesticides. Some pesticides even lead to cancer. Certain pesticides cause skin problems, loss of weight, sleeplessness and irritability.

The skyrocketing price of fruits and vegetables is not the only issue; so is the amount of pesticide residues these contain. It is surprising to know that most of the vegetables and fruits have an alarming percentage of harmful chemicals, which is far above the permissible limit prescribed by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India.

16th December 2013: I wrote to a client from Europe doing work in India: I wish you're making great sales in India! I read that food not allowed for export to Europe gets sold in India and so please take care with your food and also share with your clients since you mentioned about how people in India get attracted a lot to white people and so I wish they would care a lot about what you would say!

Please motivate your clients in terms of how pigs and tigers go after their food and that we're humans and so can do so much better in health and fitness. You would've heard about price rise of food items a major issue. Please help people to realize that less or more of pig like food is less or more of pig only. We've to make food quality a major issue for our health and fitness. Thank You for your great work!

5th October 2013: I just spoke to the company who sold the seemingly tampered protein box to me. I learned that my complaint call mid last week wasn't registered in their system and hence it seems a delay in their response. I told the rep the person's name who I spoke to. I told the rep that junior people might not care as much and so having direct online system for filing complaints should also be there.

The company rep told me that the customers can file complaints online after they log into the site. I said that I didn't know that and so I just called. I told the rep that there should be link nearby the contact numbers on their site that people can file their complaints online.

I also told the rep that they shouldn't use courier service to get the product back from me because what if it's the courier service that might be opening up the box. The rep said that it's highly unlikely. The person also said that it's highly unlikely that the box is tampered with because of their quality controls. I said that perhaps most people wouldn't check the supplement box like how I did it and so if there's potential mixing in the boxes then they wouldn't realize it. I also said that if this wouldn't have been returned then I would've taken the box to a lab for testing. The rep was very helpful. I'll be writing to major nutrition supplements brands that how people can test their products by themselves and that I would share online and which should also help those brands besides the many people consuming them thinking that it would help them.

I would visit their office next week with the box so that I get another box. Thank You! Best!

25th August 2013: "I buy only branded milk and we need to know whether it is safe. My two sons, aged seven and three, drink milk twice a day. If they skip a meal, milk also fills the gap. But now I am not sure whether giving them milk is a good idea. How will I fulfil their protein requirements?" said Aditi Sharma, a homemaker. http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-01-11/delhi/30615480_1_loose-milk-milk-powder-amul

What do you eat and what do you feed others? Are you maximizing your human potential? How do you feel as an Indian having such widespread milk adulteration considering the best in our world? Now people are getting aware about this better, however, what if you and your family consumed adulterated milk for years before? What are you doing for greatness? I do wish that the branded milk at most has non-harmful water mixed. I also wish the best for those selling loose milk. Best!

24th August 2013: Indian in general ka andaa kaisa jab yeh http://www.kansalagro.com/about-egg.htm aisaa? (How's the Indian's egg in general when this one is like this?) What are you doing for your health and fitness? Best!

15th August 2013: Mother India, how was the quality of milk and the milk based products that you treated to all Indians today? I wonder what mothers think when they give birth knowing that they can't even feed themselves properly. What quality of humans would generally be born and grown like that? Best!

9th August 2013: God, Is this also why several people in India seem to keep trying to move abroad (ask anyone if they want to and generally they say yes that they want to just like a grandmother yesterday told me that her grandson would go since his grandfather does business in LA, USA)? God, Is this also why the people in India prefer to buy things not made in India if they can?

"As the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) laboratory report recently discovered our branded edible oils are full of unhealthy trans fats. The results showed trans fats in seven leading vanaspati brands were five to 12 times the 2 per cent standard set by Denmark.

30th July 2013: Sources of Adulteration in Milk - Agriculture For Nutrition and Health presentation link

Possible diseases due to Adulteration in Milk - Agriculture For Nutrition and Health presentation

12 July 2013: Indian doodh wale, Suar jaisa na bana re. Doodh mein tu kya mila re? Tujhe agar koi roke na, Phir bhi ruk jaa re, Apne logon ke bare mein to soch ke.

I thought of this while thinking of milk adulteration issue in India. These days I've been drinking Yakult probiotic milk and I see people making tea using Nestle milk powder which seems nice. I do feel highly unfortunate about the severe milk adulteration issue. What do you do about milk adulteration? Best!

6th July 2013: Could this comment even discourage other people from maximizing their human potential? What's the future of India? Following comments continue from my previous post on 5th July:

PERSON Shakti Saran... Checked with the Poultry farm guy... The problem in India is more related to over use of antibitics... to keep the chickens from falling ill - not so for the chemicals you mentioned, though some remind me of my Botany classes and seems I am right: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthophyll. So, if the yellow colour is coming from Xanthophyll - we are actually getting essential nutrients from natural sources - Leaf to egg to humans. I wouldn't worry too much. Also, Americans do get frazzled by Dihydrogen Oxide... What can one say!

11 hours ago · Like

Shakti Saran PERSON, You said "more" and "not so for", however, it's unclear the absolute quantities present in general. Why are you making such light comments about such a serious issue or is the issue not that serious to you? If you've a good idea about their quantities used in general then please share because that'll really be of value if you can understand my point which I say because if you possibly did then you wouldn't only compare these two but also provide good idea about their quantities used in general meaning possibly how much of them are in an egg in general or else they could even be in very minute quantities or even in significant quantities having possibility of doing increasing harm to people over a long period of consumption. 

Also, you talk about some botany class, however, is this chemical being fed for nutrition of hen or for primary purpose of making the yolk yellower because if it's the latter then what could be its harmful effects and also why make people think that their yolk is yellower than natural by using such chemical unless the yolk might not have been yellow enough otherwise and that the people might have then thought that perhaps the egg isn't that good? 

Also, I mentioned about there being a variety of healthy options for eggs in USA and so I don't understand why you would mention about what you mentioned unless you don't have anything better to mention about how to improve things in India? 

I feel highly unfortunate to type all this than getting much more valuable inputs for my post for the masses. It makes me wonder the quality and quantity of research and development in India. I typed because I wish that more and more people would realize better. Around an hour ago while on my way to my place, someone I met told me about people in general according to him that they say that "khahin to girna hai" (somewhere they have to fall). I wonder why people aren't using anti-pollution mask in Delhi region given the very high and severely harmful pollution. I wonder about several other such things and that then I meet such people who tell me such things.

5th July 2013: 

Someone comments on my post in some group:

PERSON The yellowness of Indian eggs comes from the green leaves and carotenoids in them...
50 minutes ago · Like

Shakti Saran I thought my point was simple to understand since many people might be suffering from food adulteration and so perhaps also thinking about it. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough! I meant if chemicals are being used to make the yolk yellower. Somewhere I had read about a yellow dye created by feeding Xanthophyll, zeanthin, marigold dye and caroteinic acid. There could be any other combination of things also. Are they really there and if so then generally what all and that how much?

My post:

God, I've heard of stories of long ago of people in India being able to convert energy to matter. Why didn't you inspire them to make India great or did you or what happened and can you please help now?

Yesterday, my cousin visited who has cleared her medical exams in USA and now will be going there soon for a job. She mentioned about the variety of very healthy options for eggs being sold there.

What's the quality of egg of Indian in general? Please help us to have the best quality eggs in India also. I read somewhere that the yellow in egg sold in India might also be due to chemicals fed to chickens and if so then how harmful are those chemicals?

I request all to read about the highly valuable efforts of this human including for inspiration to make our world a much greater place. On this 4th of July, thank you very much for your efforts that I've technologies and solutions to share this with our world and I wish for humans to maximize their potential. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/04/technology/douglas-c-engelbart-inventor-of-the-computer-mouse-dies-at-88.html Best!

27 MAY 2013: The NGO picked up 193 samples of 35 different vegetables from markets in Bangalore, Delhi and Kolkata. These were then tested for 106 pesticides and the results were alarming as four of the five banned chemicals were found in these samples.

18 May 2013: Consumption of fruit ripened using carbide can cause diarrhoea, mouth ulcers, dizziness and even cancer in the long run. Bet on it. Your mango is ripened using carbide. [I suggest to test for it than not eating it at all. Anyone knows how?] In its biggest haul this year, AMC destroys 22,700 kg mangoes at Naroda wholesale fruit market. http://www.dnaindia.com/ahmedabad/1836343/report-bet-on-it-your-mango-is-ripened-using-carbide

From article published on June 13, 2011 about NON CALCIUM CARBIDE ripened mangoes 

http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/NewDelhi/Mango-lovers-can-gorge-on-safer-fruits-this-year/Article1-709074.aspx 

Meanwhile, consumers are becoming more and more aware and hence, choosey about what they eat. Dr Vanit Kathuria, deputy manager (seeds and support services) at Mother Dairy’s Safal points out, “Apart from conventional factors such as price, quality and demand that affect the market, ‘safety’ has become an important factor in recent times.”

Instead of calcium carbide, Safal authorities have been using ethylene, since setting up the Mangolpuri facility in 1988. Mature unripe mangoes are kept in temperature and humidity-controlled chambers, followed by a trigger of ethylene (at permissible limits) for 24 hours.

At the end of the third day, ripe mangoes are ready to be sent to retail outlets. “This is a kind of an accelerated process using ethylene. When fruits mature in a natural way, they release ethylene, which, in turn releases heat that helps in ripening. It takes six-seven days. But using the ethylene trigger, we get the same result in just three days,” said Subhash Sharma, Safal’s DGM (operations).

Safal has been advocating the ‘ripen mangoes at home’ concept. Unripe mature mangoes available at retail outlets are wrapped in a newspaper and placed in an airtight container for 4-6 days at home.

“The psychology of the consumer is such that they accept things easily if they are involved (in the process). Both children and elders are excited at the prospect of ripening mangoes at home,” Sharma added.

14 March 2013: People say what's the alternative to eating several harmful adulterated food. I've started these lists today and let's start more (I'm going to hire someone soon to keep adding shop details in the following lists. If you can tell any shops to add their details then that might help increasing number of people!):

No matter how much we train a dog, can it care about food adulteration? It's great that we're humans. If you're doing anything related to food adulteration in India then you're welcome to also share about it here.

We have to demand good food. Businesses will listen if many will demand together. Join the site and make a demand together. This is easy to do. As lakhs of people will come together and demand, businesses will listen. They can still profit and we can have a better life. Please join the site and share with others about our demand.

One thing that we can and must do is to search for shops that sell organic food and also share about their locations with others. Please join our network and share about organic food shops that you know. There can be shops nearby you selling much better food. What's the use of studying and working if you buy food that severely harms you and your quality of life increasingly worsens?

In this blog, I'll be sharing posts related to food adulteration in India. I'll be sharing issues and also on basic to advanced solutions for reducing and stopping it. I welcome you to comment with anything of value. I wish that all of us realize that by doing any amount of food adulteration, we're harming ourselves, our family and friends, and our society and world at large. What's the point of earning money that will mostly go to curing diseases and that one wouldn't even be well enough to enjoy any of the remaining money? I wish that we can do much better than how things are in India and that if you wonder that why we Indians haven't been able to have things much better then I also wonder about our elders for the same, however, I also think that just by saying that they were/are useless or not good enough wouldn't help. We've to make the issue of food adulteration a critical issue in our lives since food is critical for our lives without which we can't even live and that if we're eating adulterated food then seriously how well are we living? Can we think of the Indian street dogs who eat just whatever that they get? We're humans who're capable in general and that we can at least get rid of the issue of food adulteration by all of us working together intelligently, smartly, and with common sense.   

A person working at gym offered me Boondi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boondi as Prasad http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prasad. Even though he had it in his hand, I took it from the polythene bag while telling him that I don't know if his hands are clean or not. Also, polythene bag has its own issues including when hot things are put in it like if the boondi is hot. I've written before on offering sweets as Prasad including that we don't know how proper are the ingredients and the cooking given widespread food adulteration in India which is much more unfortunate than widespread Indian street dogs and that we should try to reduce towards eventually stopping food adulteration, Indian street dogs who generally live very miserably and other issues. I'm now going to suggest the gym owner who I met today after a long while and whose company's web-site is being developed by me and my team that those interested in gym can contribute to buy quality chocolate like Cadbury to be offered to Lord Hanuman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanuman as Prasad on Tuesdays which is the day dedicated to Him. I'll share the same with others at gym as well since the owner called me his younger brother today which is great and that I wish that his quality gym wouldn't lead people to getting sick due any unfortunate issues in India and that his given work to me of making his web-site would be done well! Best! Shakti 

28 July 2015: Now, states in India show contamination in water & milk
In water, Chandigarh showed 100 per cent adulteration, Jharkhand 75 per cent, Andhra Pradesh 70 per cent, Karnataka 66 per cent and Tamil Nadu 58 per cent out of the samples collected for testing from each state or union territory.
Many states, which had showed considerable levels of adulteration in bottled water in the previous financial year, have not given their data for this year. Gujarat at 40 per cent, Haryana 30 per cent and Uttar Pradesh at 28 per cent contamination last year, are among the states with no data for 2014-15, as per Parliament reply given on July 24.
In milk too, there are many absentees in 2014-15 including Gujarat, Delhi, West Bengal, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, with these states offering no data. Himachal Pradesh showed 92 per cent of its milk samples being contaminated, while others with high level of adulteration were Jharkhand at 45 per cent, Chhattisgarh at 38 per cent, Jammu & Kashmir at 32 per cent and Madhya Pradesh at 28 per cent.

Hi All,

I'd like to thank Ms. Neelakshi to consent for the interview with the Health and Fitness India network. Our Q&A are as follows:

Photo:

Before starting the interview, Neelakshi has this to share with all:

Nothing is more rewarding than to pursue a career that was always a passion for you. When that interest is dancing it makes sure that alongside work you are healthy and happy. 
All work-out regimens are special but for me dancing is the most happy way to health and fitness. Holistic in its constitution, it gives you a pleasant mind and toned body.

1. Why did you decide to enter the fitness industry?

Dancing had always been my passion. I'm literally one of those people who could dance before they walked but that didn't pull me into dance professionally.

I took up the profession four years back seeing the scope of the industry had begun to expand and I have the option of doing what I love the most.

2. What are your specialties as a fitness professional?

I'm a dance performer, choreographer and instructor for belly dance, salsa, bachata, zouk, hip-hop, Bollywood and a lot of my routines include acrobatics. I'm the co-director of iDance India, New Delhi and along with my partner - Jose Varghese, we run dance fitness programs which comprise of infusing all dance forms in the workout session channelized to burn calories and improve flexibility.

It's much catchy and consistent in terms of keeping the interest of people who want to work-out but can't seem to "enjoy" it when they go to gyms, jogging, aerobics. These workouts increase strength, balance and stamina while kicking up the energy levels of everyone.

3. What's a great piece of advise that you've given to a client?

"Start small" and "To listen to your own body". The first step towards change is always the hardest. I always advise my students to just do a little bit on the first few days and ensure that I include more vivacious activities to keep it interesting. We don't want someone to workout hard for first week and then never see the work-out room for months. 

As much as I want my students to push their limits to achieve their goals, I would ask them to stop or go further based only on if their body allows. Many people ignore this and end up injured leaving their goals incomplete.

4. Can you please share any major mistakes that fitness professionals make?

"Pushing students too much without evaluating their levels." As instructors with strength and flexibility, some teachers forget that the person coming to them hasn't moved a muscle in years before coming to the studio. Ignoring that they train them like they would train the rest who have been working out for months which only injures them further.

It's necessary to build up strength and flexibility slowly and gradually for long-lasting results. Whether it be the no. of sets, repetitions or complexity of exercises, first test the client to see where they stand in terms of agility and strength and then with basics, let them work their way up to a stronger body.

Many people have back problems, irrespective of regular gym sessions, why? Because some of the instructors don't prepare their student's backs before they give them weights to build muscles all over. Even for people working out for months or year, there are certain limitations to their body as every body is different and only when that's taken care of you can be sure of they're progressing in right direction.

It's a process and must be respected.

5. Where do you see yourself professionally in the next five and ten years from now?

At present, my company, iDance India runs regular batches in Delhi, Gurgaon, Chandigarh and conducts performance and workshops all over India. In next five years, I see more and more people joining in to dance with us at our branches in all over India ensuring a healthier and happier lifestyle.

In this blog post, I share on carbohydrate and diet and nutrition for the health and fitness of people in India and worldwide including related to weight loss and gain. Information is from reputed sources and the references are at the end. 

There are four major classes of biomolecules - carbohydrates, proteins, nucleotides, and lipids. Carbohydrates, or saccharides, are the most abundant of the four. 

Carbohydrates have several roles in living organisms, including energy transportation, as well as being structural components of plants and arthropods.

Carbohydrate derivates are actively involved in fertilization, immune systems, the development of disease, blood clotting and development.

They are called carbohydrates because the carbon, oxygen and hydrogen they contain are generally in proportion to form water with the general formula Cn (H2O)n.

Most organic matter on earth is made up of carbohydrates because they are involved in so many aspects of life, including:

Energy stores, fuels, and metabolic intermediaries.

Ribose and deoxyribose sugars are part of the structural framework of RNA and DNA.

The cell walls of bacteria are mainly made up of polysaccharides (types of carbohydrate).

Cellulose (a type of carbohydrate) makes up most of plant cell walls.

Carbohydrates are linked to many proteins and lipids (fats), where they are vitally involved in cell interactions.

Carbohydrates and nutrition

People think of bread, pasta and rice when they think of carbs, but all these foods are rich in carbs too.

Bread, pasta, beans, potatoes, bran, rice and cereals are carbohydrate-rich foods. Most carbohydrate rich foods have a high starch content. Proteins and fats require more water for digestion than carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are the most common source of energy for most organisms and animals, including humans.

Carbohydrates are not classed as essential nutrients for humans. We could get all our energy from fats and proteins if we had to. However, our brain requires carbohydrates, specifically glucose. Neurons cannot burn fat.

1 gram of carbohydrate contains approximately 4 kilocalories (kcal)
1 gram of protein contains approximately 4 kcal
1 gram of fat contains approximately 9 kcal

However, proteins are used in both forms of metabolism - anabolism (building and maintaining tissue and cells) and catabolism (breaking molecules down and releasing/producing energy). So, the consumption of protein cannot be calculated in the same way as fats or carbohydrates when measuring our body's energy needs.

Not all carbohydrates are used as fuel (energy). A lot of dietary fiber is made of polysaccharides that our bodies do not digest.

Most health authorities around the world say that humans should obtain 40 to 65% of their energy needs from carbohydrates - and only 10% from simple carbohydrates (glucose and simple sugars).

Should I go for a high-carb or low-carb nutritional approach?

Every couple of decades some 'breakthrough' appears which tells people either to 'avoid all fats', 'avoid carbs', 'you can't go wrong with carbohydrates', etc. Carbohydrates have been and will continue to be an essential part of any human dietary requirement for hundreds of years, unless a fundamental mutation occurs.

The obesity explosion in most industrialized countries, and many developing countries, is a result of several contributory factors. One could easily argue for or against higher or lower carbohydrate intake, and give compelling examples, and convince most people either way.

However, some factors have been present throughout the obesity explosion and should not be ignored:

Less physical activity.

Fewer hours sleep each night. A study published in the journal SLEEP4 identified an association with duration of sleep and obesity in both children and adults.

Higher consumption of junk food.

Higher consumption of food additives, coloring, taste enhancers, artificial emulsifiers, etc.

More abstract mental stress due to work, mortgages, and other modern lifestyle factors. A study by scientists from the US and Slovakia, revealed that neuropeptide Y (NPY), a molecule the body releases when stressed, can 'unlock' Y2 receptors in the body's fat cells, stimulating the cells to grow in size and number

In rapidly developing countries, such as China, India, Brazil, Mexico, obesity is rising as people's standards of living are changing. However, for their leaner nationals of a few decades ago carbohydrates made up a much higher proportion of their diets.

Those leaner people also consumed much less junk food, moved around more, tended to consume more natural foods, and slept more hours each night. Saying that a country's body weight problem is due to too much or too little of just one food component is too simplistic - it is a bit like saying that traffic problems in our cities are caused by badly synchronized traffic lights and nothing else.

It is true that many carbohydrates present in processed foods and drinks we consume tend to spike glucose and subsequently insulin production, and leave you hungry sooner than natural foods would.

The Mediterranean diet of the people in Greece or the island of Corfu, with an abundance of carbohydrates from natural sources plus a normal amount of animal/fish protein, have a much lower impact on insulin requirements and subsequent health problems, compared to any other widespread western diet.

Dramatically fluctuating insulin and blood glucose levels can have a long term effect on your eventual risk of developing obesity, diabetes type 2, heart disease, and other conditions. However, for good health we do require carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates that come from natural unprocessed foods, such as fruit, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, and some cereals also contain essential vitamins, minerals, fiber and key phytonutrients.

What happens to sugar levels in the blood?

When we eat food with carbohydrates in them our digestive system breaks some of them down into glucose. This glucose enters the blood, raising blood sugar (glucose) levels. When blood glucose levels rise, beta cells in the pancreas release insulin. Insulin is a hormone that makes our cells absorb blood sugar for energy or storage. As the cells absorb the blood sugar, blood sugar levels start to drop.

When blood sugar levels drop below a certain point alpha cells in the pancreas release glucagon. Glucagon is a hormone that makes the liver release glycogen - a sugar stored in the liver.

In short - insulin and glucagon help maintain regular levels of blood glucose for our cells, especially our brain cells. Insulin brings excess blood glucose levels down, while glucagon brings levels back up when they are too low.

If blood glucose levels are rising too rapidly and too often the cells can eventually become faulty and not respond properly to insulin's "absorb blood energy and store" instruction; over time they require a higher level of insulin to react - we call this insulin resistance.

Eventually, the beta cells in the pancreas wear out - because they have had to produce lots of insulin for many years - insulin production drops and eventually packs in altogether.

Insulin resistance leads to hypertension (high blood pressure), high blood fat levels (triglycerides), low levels of good cholesterol (HDL), weight gain and other diseases. All these illnesses, together with insulin resistance, is called metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome leads to type 2 diabetes.

If over the long-term blood sugar levels can be controlled without large quantities of insulin being released, the chances of developing metabolic syndrome are considerably lower.

Natural carbohydrates, such as those found in fruits and vegetables, legumes, whole grains, etc., tend to enter the bloodstream more slowly compared to the carbohydrates found in processed foods. Good sleep and regular exercise also help regulate blood sugar and the hormone control.

Carbohydrates which quickly raise blood sugar are said to have a high glycemic index, while those that have a gentler effect on blood sugar levels have a lower glycemic index.

The glycemic index (GI)

Carbohydrates enter the bloodstream as glucose at different rates - high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates enter the bloodstream as glucose rapidly, while low GI carbohydrates enter slowly because they take longer to digest and break down.

A meal with lower GI carbohydrates will raise your blood glucose levels more slowly, and over a longer period - this is better for long-term health and body weight control.

People who are relatively physically inactive (sedentary), and don't sleep at least 7 hours every night are especially vulnerable to the long-term detrimental effects of regular consumption of high GI carbohydrates.

Low GI carbohydrates have the following benefits:

You are less likely to put on weight

Low glycemic diets may be better for weight loss. A diet of foods less likely to spike blood sugar levels helps dieters lose more weight, according to a systematic review from Australia.

You will have better diabetes control

Your blood cholesterol levels will most likely remain healthy

Your risk of heart disease is lower

It will take longer for you to become hungry after a meal

Your physical endurance will improve

Reducing the risk of colon cancer recurrence - if you have colon cancer, there may be a lower chance of cancer recurrence. Colon cancer survivors whose diet is heavy in complex sugars and carbohydrate-rich foods are far more likely to have a recurrence of the disease than are patients who eat a better balance of foods, according to a study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

How can I switch to a low GI lifestyle?

If you eat cereals for breakfast, switch to oats, barley or bran. Make sure the oats are as natural as possible; milling or grinding can ramp up their GI dramatically.

If you eat bread, only consume wholegrain bread.

Eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.

If you have a fruit juice make sure you eat all of the pulp (the meat of the fruit).

Eat rice with the husk still there (brown rice).

If you eat pasta go for whole grain ones.

Eat plenty of salads.

Cut out all junk foods, processed foods, foods with too many additives (flavorings, emulsifiers, etc).

How processing affects the Glycemic Index of carbohydrates?

Milling and grinding of foods always raise their glycemic index. Unfortunately, the processes often eliminate other nutrients, such as minerals, vitamins, dietary fibers as well, leaving what is often no more than starchy endosperm (the inner part of the seed/grain, mainly starch).

What is the difference between the Glycemic Load and Glycemic Index of a food?

The GI refers just to how quickly a food's broken down glucose enters the bloodstream. This may be misleading sometimes. For example, a melon has a high GI, however most of it is water. The glycemic load (GL) takes into account the GI of the carbohydrate as well as how much carbohydrate that food has.

GL = (GI x amount of carbohydrate) divided by 100.

For example:

An apple has a GI of 40 and contains 15 grams of carbohydrate. GL = (40 x 15) divided by 100 = 6g.

A small baked potato has a GI of 80 and contains 15g of carbohydrate. GL (80 x 15) divided by 100 = 12g.

The GL is a better measure for calculating the metabolic effect of foods - but it may not always lead to best nutrition.

What is the disadvantage of using just the glycemic load?

Dietitians, nutritionists and endocrinologists say that GL is useful for scientists, but GI may be better for lay people, especially those with diabetes. Many low GL foods do not have the right nutrients, such as butter or fatty meats which have the wrong types of fats for good long-term health.

Experts from the University of Sydney's (Home of the Glycemic Index) suggest that lay people should use GI as a tool that allows you to "choose one food over another in the same food group - the best bread to choose, etc." and not to get bogged down with the figures.

Slow carbs matter much more than low carbs. A well balanced diet consisting of good quality foods is as important as physical activity and good sleep.

Physical activity is a key factor in weight control and good long-term health. It is as important as a good diet and good sleep.

Sleeping at least 7 hours each night is as important as a well balanced diet and physical activity.

If you are overweight and you want to lose weight, focusing on slow carbs is useful. A well balanced and nutritional diet, such as the Mediterranean diet, plus good sleep and plenty of physical activity, is much more likely to lead to long-term success and good physical and mental health.

Someone asked about my advertising work's deliverables including with numbers.

Then I realized I should stop/remove the things which I've been doing for that person in goodwill and when I can then come up with a newer quotation (most likely much higher than the first one) to include much more specifically the value that I would deliver and also mention the things I did as goodwill as part of deliverables. I think as business, it would be acceptable by this person to receive as per quotation and nothing less or more. I wish this person the best!

My initial advertising work proposal PDF for this person includes:

Hi ,

Thank You for letting me share my advertising proposal for you.

I'm sure you realize that advertising has to keep going on to retain and grow clients.

Moreover, the advertising expense needs to be appropriate to the expected revenues.

I have a large and growing social and professional network through LinkedIn, Google+ and Facebook. I have over 3000 connections on LinkedIn several of who are Directors, VPs, Owners and Senior Professionals including in Delhi area and which is growing.

I have created a variety of increasingly valuable sites including www.healthfitnessindia.com , www.healthfitnessindia.in , www.spasandsalonsindia.com , www.careerpartner.in , www.fashiondesignersindia.com (launched few days ago) , www.umbrasecurity.com and others.

I'm launching two e-Commerce sites this month, one in India (local market for now in Delhi area) and another in USA (global market).

My sites are indexed increasingly well by the search engines and several of my site pages come on the 1st page of search engines. This helps me to keep growing my audiences.

To do your advertising work, I suggest doing these things:

1. Share in relevant Facebook groups including those related to the class/workshop locations

2. Share through my LinkedIn, Google+ and Facebook profiles, pages and groups

3. Share through my sites in different ways

My above efforts can get you a growing online presence for the short to long term and which should increasingly help you in retaining and growing clients.

My fees for the next 6 months will be only 1500 INR per month which is about 50 INR per day. I would say that this will be one of your best investments for your work. As you'll get value from my efforts and would want more then I would offer more valuable ideas to you.

I suggest that you start for one month with me and if for any reason that you aren't satisfied then you can discontinue my service. If you're ready to start then I'll message you my bank details. I look forward to being of increasing value to you.

Best Regards,
Shakti

This photo is next to a mall having a nice dance school. If they can be moved to another place to not rot in such level of pollution and also avoid poor food quality also due to what's not consumed and disposed by people then that could also be better for them.

An expensive apartment complex in India has boards that say dog waste spreads disease. Do you have such boards where your mother, child or family in general stays? Share kare with Indian milk drinkers. I wish us best!

3rd September 2014: Try walking in Delhi, if you can skip hurdles How do you feel as an Indian human (not street dog, pig or another animal) when you experience such in the capital (I had my house in E-block East of Kailash for around two decades and the earlier times there were so much nicer)

15th August 2014: (Please note that I'm canceling my Forever Living Products distributorship due to my experience with my sponsor and that due to FLP policy, I'm unable to easily change my sponsor for sure and I don't have time to keep trying to do that. I did find their products to be of value.) 

5th August 2014: Within months, Connaught Place a spitting image of its pre-facelift self

timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/Within-months-Connaught-Place-a-spitting-image-of-its-pre-facelift-self/articleshow/39639522.cms

23rd June 2014: Amazing!!! I went to someone to share about Forever Living Products and she said that her maid wouldn't be able to use such a quality and expensive detergent because the maid comes when there's nobody to look at her work and she has already had bad experience with maid related to washing. 

Before that an auto driver told me that he planted some trees nearby but they were gone after some days. He shared this when I saw a truck pass by throwing out a lot of black smoke and I said that'll cause a lot of harm. I then said that jahan maa hogi sadak ki suarni, kutiya aur doosre sadak ke janwar wahan aisi ho sakti hai gandagi aur problems. 

And now I saw a person who works with me to go to washroom (I would think to clean) and then bell rang and the maid has come to clean. Yesterday, a similar thing had happened when I had flipped Forever Living Products book to their Multi Purpose Detergent page and the bell had rang and the maid had come. The same person was there and when I had shared about page and maid then he had said that such things happen a lot with me. 

This person has become a Forever Living Products distributor and he has purchased aloe vera gel to drink and aloe vera based tooth gel. He said that he stopped using a very well known ayurveda based toothpaste because that had started to harm him. Do you think it can also be due to the quality of ingredients in the ayurveda based paste given the chemicals in air, water and land where they're grown and that not related to ayurveda itself? 

Do you wonder what kinds of things happen a lot to you on a daily basis? Few hours ago, I went to an ice-cream shop where the person said that they don't suggest buying from street vendors because of issues. 

How unfortunate is the above mentioned person to say that she can't use quality products because of the people who work for her. How do you feel as an Indian?

I was going to share the above at sometime later and I think that seeing the person who has become a Forever Living Products distributor go clean as the maid came to clean was a good time to share this.

19th June 2014: Today while going to a new gym, someone from a car in front of me threw a can on the road when the car turned at the corner on the opposite side of the school.

Perhaps the person thought that the corner was like a trash area. Moreover, several people seem to throw anywhere on the road even when it seems that they could've done much better by easily keeping the trash until they reached somewhere and found a bin.

At the gym, I was asked to try out their bike room in which they've put up a large screen and there was an hour long video of a bike race in Europe with prompts on the screen for the bikers in the gym to follow. It was like a virtual trainer. It was awesome that I was wearing a t-shirt with Switzerland flag on it and that my aunt who lives in Switzerland had brought it for me. In the video, I had seen the Suisse flag some different times and that when I had returned, there was an online message from my aunt after a long while. I might visit her in Suisse later this year and so if you're there and perhaps would like to meet then you're welcome to share.

The long streets going through the city were so clean throughout the video. Do you think that Indian mother's milk getting affected by chemicals in air, water, food and land would also be worsening people since they're babies that even the several educated and well-to-do professionals seem to throw things on the street like used wrappers, packets, bottles and other things when they could easily do much better by keeping the same till they find a trash bin. Do you think that it can also be a lack of much affection for the place that people dirty it unlike the insides of the places where they stay?

After the gym, when I went out of the mall and took another path, I saw a dirty open drain where I held my breath and then started thinking that shayad Indian sadiyali ki wajah se bhi log apne ko aur apne bachchon ko international hariyali mein bhejte honge kyunki agar woh yahan kuch great karna chahenge toh kahin aur jaa kar shayad bahut behtar karenge jaise ki research, development, professional work ya phir business bhi jo ki time ke sath India ko bhi improve kar sakega agar woh chahenge toh.

(perhaps also because of Indian rottenness that people would be sending themselves and their children to international greenery because if they would want to do something great here then by going somewhere else perhaps they'll do it much better like research, development, professional work and even business and which with time can also improve India if they would want to.)

25th April 2014: "Increased construction activities and industrialization without proper planning has led to mosquito breeding and hence higher incidence of malaria in urban areas," G.S. Sonal, Head of the Department of Malaria, National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP) under the health ministry, told us.

He said the builders and industrialists should ensure proper disposal of waste and construction material to avoid mosquito breeding.

"They should consult the health department while planning the buildings and their construction," he said.

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health/Unplanned-construction-work-leading-to-malaria-increase/articleshow/34163139.cms

14th April 2014: I shared with an aunt to fix aluminium mesh on her room window so that when she goes to bed then she can have fresher air from outside and still not let mosquitoes in. Even if mosquitoes come in from other windows and doors in the house, she can remove the mosquitoes in the room before going to sleep and then close the room door and then sleep much better with the air from outside. During the day, people can still try much to move away mosquitoes, however, when asleep the mosquitoes could harm a lot more. So even if you can't put aluminium mesh throughout the house, you can perhaps at least put it in your room where you sleep.

She said that she had done similar some years ago, however, she had forgotten about this and that she would do this. I've been reading about chemicals being used again mosquitoes and I think that it's better that we avoid them as much as possible and that rather do other things to make our places and living better! (y) :)

Now I'm going to Dwarka after several months! Perhaps I'll try to do more about "How a seemingly nice person can possibly cheat you." www.linkedin.com/groups/How-seemingly-nice-person-can-4667311.S.5830573507620134915

26th March 2014: "Agar made in India hota to ab tak kabada ho gaya hota" (If it was made in India then by now it would've got bad) said a very senior retired person. He said that I was all red today. I then laughed saying that I didn't even notice because I'm very busy and I think I just wore whatever I got from cupboard. I was wearing shorts and t-shirt with much red in them. He mentioned something about fashion and then I said that I bought these shorts in USA over a decade ago and that they're old. He then said that they're looking fresh and "Agar made in India hota to ab tak kabada ho gaya hota". I think I saw sadness in him when he said that and then I said that yes we've a lot of problems.

Of course, nice things are also made here, however, what he said made me think that perhaps the nice things aren't as much as the much worse things made here. Only today, I opened the voice recorder I bought from Amazon India and that it doesn't have 8 GB data storage card which it said to have on the site. I had bought it for my mom's dad's elder brother who says and creates sher (poems). At least from Amazon, I got a developed country's experience also in India!!! I filled out Amazon's form to return a product and the website asked me to select date and time range when someone from Amazon would come to collect the product.

Now its been a while that I bought a chair from a top Indian brand company and that it started to break apart soon. When I had bought my chair in USA for around the same price, it had just kept working without any issues. I had bought a nice Samsonite chair because I sit and work for long periods.

I felt highly unfortunate as an Indian after what this person said and then I thought that how many Indians really think like this even if they might not share the same on a regular basis because they've even got used to such.

And is that also why there are so many Indian street dogs, filth on streets, broken roads, harmful chemicals in food, water, air and land and other issues? What are you doing to make things better?

18th March 2014: "it is stray animals that get into major problems during our festivals."

15th March 2014: "Toxic colours are freely being sold everywhere. These colours contain harmful substances such as zinc, chromium, mercury, lead, mercury, asbestos etc."

http://www.mid-day.com/articles/pollution-control-board-cant-control-sale-of-toxic-holi-colours/15159081

I went for a walk to a nearby mall to buy low fat Milkana paneer from easyday. Along the way, I saw several street dogs and they generally seemed in miserable conditions and then I had the following thoughts.

It made me think that sadak ke kutte kutiya to holi ke dino bhi miserable dikhte hai lekin kitne log sone ki chidiya ke bare mein holi ke dino sochte hai. Then I thought that kutiya ho ya sherni ho, woh insaan ki kabiliyat jaisa nahi paida kar sakti aur isiliye insaan jaise nahin jee sakti lekin hum insaan aise kyun jee rahe hain. Ye kharab chemicals humhe aur humare environment ko for the long-term kitna harm karenge. Aap kya kar rahe hai iske bare mein? Agar koi safe colors khareede bhi to doosre bhi kya safe colors khareed ke usko lagaynge. Harmful colors to bikne hi nahin chahiye kyunki insaan hai. Ye sab share karne se shayad aur log bhi aur zyada aware honge aur phir safe colors khareedne ki aur koshish karenge. I wish us best.

25th February 2014: International Starbucks aap yahan lao, Indian sadak ke kutte kutiya phir bhi wahan milenge. (You bring International Starbucks here, however, Indian street male female dogs will still be there.) While walking from Madras Coffee House in P block to Metro station in Connaught Place, New Delhi, I walked on the main road because I had seen some dogs lying around while going from metro to the coffee house few hours ago.

It was after 10:30 PM and so I had thought to avoid risk by walking on the main road. When I reached shortly before Starbucks, I heard loud barking of street dogs. This is highly unfortunate in terms of beauty and value of such a nice place.

I'm writing so perhaps anyone reading this who knows anyone in authority well enough can share with them that how they feel as an Indian at the global level due to things like this.

2nd February 2014: "Gurgaon on its deathbed: Haphazard model of development causes severe water crisis". Some years ago, someone told me Gurgaon to be like Frankfurt. I haven't been to Frankfurt, however, Gurgaon with its several issues then didn't seem to me that it would like a well-known city of Germany.

It's like some years ago when someone told me that Indirapuram was being made like Singapore. It's also like some years ago when people used to say that India would get ahead of China about which I recently read and shared that the air pollution in Delhi is being said to be worse than in Beijing.

Thankfully, we're not street dogs, pigs or any other animals but humans and so all this should also help us realize very well that there's much to be done to make things even decently better.

15th January 2014: 15th January was Indian Army Day! I thought what would happen today. During evening, I had some chat with a new person. Around midnight, she told me she's a tomboy and when I asked her if she likes guns then she said yes. I just Google'd "mother goddess warrior" and found this image on top.

4th December 2013: "We are advanced in our waste management in that we have 80 percent of all the waste produced in the city of San Francisco is now recycled. When we started, everything was going into a black bin. So, we have come from zero to 80 percent in 10 years," he told Business Today.  "Every house had to understand why we separate garbage, why we recycle. Why we keep blue bin for recycle, green bin for compost and black bin for everything else that cannot be recycled."

He, however, recognises Bangalore's challenges. "Bangalore has 10 times the population that we have in San Francisco. Their behaviours need to change, the systems need to adapt." 

The Mayor says more and more people are moving into cities in India as they do in the US. "It will be up to us as Mayors and leaders of cities to work in private-public partnership with greatest companies and industries to promote solutions to the challenge of more people moving into our cities. If we don't do that, we will see aspects that we see all over the world. Waste will get out of control, and air pollution, water and sanitation problems will affect our health and businesses, and our cities will be less attractive to private investments."

22nd October 2013: How do you feel as an Indian? There seems a large open sewer next to the exit of a metro station which seems to have a large number of people use it. The smell is very bad which the auto driver agreed to and I thought what if it's releasing harmful to very harmful gases and which then people would breathe as they would go nearby it.

I wish that the authorities are doing their best and that are at least checking about any harmful gases. Please take care when you go by a sewer. Do you ever think of potentially harmful gases coming out of sewer and harming you and then how you would become like and also our society and environment?

What do you think about your mother's milk when you experience such things that if it also has had harmful chemicals in it and which then could also have led to mental and physical issues in you since you were a baby that we also have such issues now? Also, do you get milk of mothers in your family tested for any harmful chemicals? I wish us best!

11th October 2013: Yesterday evening, a little girl asked me on which floor I was going while I stood to wait for the elevator after coming from gym. I rarely take the elevator. She was sitting nearby. I told her the seventh on which she asked me if I could leave her on the seventh floor. I said sure. When I asked her that why she can't by herself then she said that she gets scared. I thought why. What makes her get scared. This thought has kept coming to me.

How many Indian girls and women are scared even of the simplest things and what would that be doing to our society and environment? I've been trying to work with a senior sports person on a range of sports and fitness things and would also organize events for girls, women and senior citizens safety and I wish that I would be able to start that very soon.

When I reached my place, I learned that someone in my apartment complex had called me through the intercom and also on my mobile while I was in gym, however, I generally don't receive unknown numbers. I called back and it was a person who I used to meet at my apartment's gym. Now, I go to another gym. He shared about requiring help for his son about which I shared with my partner who asked me how it would be of value to us on which I explained that that's secondary because this person who's known through his father is a seemingly good professional but in a career related problem because of his employer and that we can help without doing anything negative and that if later he would also help us then great, however, I think we should at least help on which he agreed.

8th October 2013: C-17 Globemaster the big draw at 81st IAF day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQMLooo3e3Y Great we can use such an aircraft when required. It's highly unfortunate to have very high and severely harmful pollution. I'm glad that we can at least buy great things because I wonder what such severely harmful pollution, food adulteration and other issues would be doing to Indian in general.

A senior fitness professional who has also coached sportspeople recently told me that how our food is grown and hence the chemicals in them, Indian in general would be living a confused day-to-day life. God, how're you making Indian? Mother Durga and Lord Ram, much prayers and celebrations are going on regarding you and so please surely help! Where're you? Please come or are you staying away due to such issues which I think shouldn't bother you to come and help. Thank You!

4th October 2013: "Bodega 2.0: A Business for Healthy, Walkable Cities?" - US Deputy Chief Technology Officer at The White House, Office of Science and Technology Policy https://www.linkedin.com/today/post/article/20130116032215-198302-bodega-2-0-a-business-for-healthy-walkable-cities

My comment: Great article with very valuable ideas! I like walking too but which has reduced much over the years. It's wonderful to read this and that yesterday I started "Indian Street Animal Nahin" site www.indianstreetanimalnahin.com/?p=5 If you like it then this page has features to share using FB, Google+ and Twitter! Thank You!!! Best!!!

2nd October 2013: God, Please help me start Indianstreetpignahin.in While walking on the road, I saw some Indian street dogs chase off another Indian street dog and then go back to eating from filth by the roadside. Today I took another road, the main road than crossing the broken divider on the main road where yesterday I had seen an Indian street dog inside. However, here also there were Indian street dogs. How do you feel when you see Mother India? You would've seen https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=557838704249352&set=t.100000696815795&type=3&theater

Amazingly, I also saw the shop owner of my apartment complex on the way and I had thought that whether the Pistachios and Walnuts that I had bought from the mall were expensive or not. He told me that he can get them from his supplier and that they should be cheaper and of same quality. I've told him to get some. How are Indians becoming with all the issues Mother India and God? Please help.

Yesterday I had shared on my wall:

God, Indian banaya and then what happened? What a great motivational sight this car, 2014 Bentley Flying Spur, would be for Indian people in general, do you think? I read this online: Thus, one can enjoy the rare combination of Speed & Luxury with the new model. We are thrilled to launch the New Flying Spur and are confident that the car will receive an overwhelming response from the patrons of luxury.

While crossing the road in front of gym, I had to take the worse of the two sections in the middle divider because there was an Indian street dog in the other section. I thought that even in this poor broken divider used to cross the main road, I've to further take a worse section. As I was crossing the road, a man on the other side crossing took that section first which made me see the dog in the dark which was in the little greenery in that section. How safe would children and elders feel due to Indian street dogs? How would the children feel as Indians as they'll grow up eating food which they don't know about in terms of chemicals and the air they wouldn't know about in terms of pollution and with so many other severe issues? How do the elders feel as Indians most likely living increasingly worse over the years in terms of essential things in life like quality of air, food and public things in general? God, sadak ke suar ya kutta nahin hai phir bhi aisa kyun. Please help Mother India.

13th September 2013: How a gym spoils itself? I told the trainer that a little child was on the weight section floor while he was training man and woman who were with the child. They were trying to leave the child on the leg press machine at the edge of weight section floor, however, the child had kept walking inside the section because the man and woman were on the other end at the smith machine because the trainer was helping them do chest press.

I told the trainer that the child could've got hurt. He responded that what can he do rather than sharing this issue with management. He said that mom was with the child on which I said that no the child was alone and moreover even is that safe? I tried to make him understand, however, rather than responding he nodded his head as if what's my issue. I shared with the staff and they agreed that he's wrong. I wish that he would learn and do better. I've heard that he gets several personal training clients rather than other seemingly better trainers because he charges the gym very low percentage. I wonder if the gym owner realizes the issue of what quality the members are receiving for their money and that what would that do to the gym in the longer term because I never or rarely see the owner at the gym.

The gym can't expect the members to be knowledgeable enough. When I walked to the gym talking to someone and not wearing my pollution mask, the pollution was very high and that while returning I thought that even if people would clean themselves with the best of products, their insides are getting severely harmed and so if the level of thinking in general is such that the people aren't doing anything seriously to protect themselves against the severely harmful pollution then they might not even realize the issue of having little children in the workout areas of the gym.

If you see Indian street dogs or pet Indian dogs in vehicles in a region having severely harmful pollution, the air they're breathing on the roads would most likely be about the same quality given the severely harmful pollution around them. Similarly for people walking on roads or in vehicles. Moreover, the air inside the homes might not seem as polluted, however, it could also be severely harmful if the homes are in a region having severely harmful pollution. Indian dogs can't do anything because they're dogs like anywhere in our world. However, people can do so much because they're humans like anywhere in our world. A gym trying to be of high quality should at least train its staff about such issues.

What would such severely harmful air be doing to children in India and that what would they make India like in future? Indians who migrate, how do they feel if called of Indian origin? Among dogs, there can be small dog, big dog but not greatness like human. I don't mean to offend pet owners and their emotions for their pets and any animals in general. I wish that they would realize what I'm trying to share. Among humans, there can be so much greatness!!! Best!!!

28th August 2013: What do you think the top Indians would do when they would read that AIIMS and other hospitals are violating solid waste rules? Is it due to they lacking anything? If so then can they get public assistance? Yeh suaron ke liye kooda phekne wali jagah nahi hain, yeh top insaano ke institutions hain India mein (They're not flith dumping places for pigs, they're top human institutions in India). http://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/aiims-8-other-hospitals-violating-solid-waste-rules-ngt-113080601065_1.html

At gym, the security guard gave me a towel, however, I picked my own. He kept looking at me and I thought that I would share with gym management which I did after the workout. I explained that the security guard's hands can be dirty from anything and it's better if people pickup towels by themselves. The person at front desk appreciated my input and said that the security guard table can be moved away a bit so that people can easily pickup the towels.

After gym, I asked the mall security guard at one corner where I've been noticing several street dogs that why they're increasing on which he said that they don't bite. I said that they can. Then he said that some dogs bit some people in a nearby area and then several dogs were taken away by the municipal body after they got a complaint. The surprising part is that mall management and shop owners aren't doing anything about this because I would think that it would be affecting their business.

When Britishers used to put boards that dogs and Indians not allowed then why did they think like that to put up such boards? Have you ever thought of what they thought? Suaron mein kisi ko bhi suar bol do, Shero mein kisi ko bhi sher bol do. Humans mein jab Indian bolo to really kaisa lage? Is this also why Indians keep moving abroad including a girl who some years ago had shared about wanting to improve India and had also prepared for IAS twice, however, now wants to move abroad. Best!

25th July 2013: Highly unfortunate! How do you feel when called an Indian? Kitni general public aisa bol aur kar rahi hai jo ki main yahan likh rahan hun? (How much general public is speaking and doing like this what I'm writing here?)

https://www.facebook.com/notes/shakti-saran/aisi-indianness-kitni-how-much-is-such-indianness-become-best/580751851958037

16th July 2013: Amazing!!! "Hum insaan hai ya kabadi?" (Are we humans or those who live in junk?) said my personal trainer when a fly sat on him and that he tried to move it. Shortly before that, it was sitting on me while he was helping me stretch and that I was trying to move it. There were also some mosquitoes which were disturbing us. I do think that even those who live in junk can also be humans and I think what he meant is that how come the conditions around us are so poor given that we're humans.

Someone known to me had come to gym and while talking to him, he had said to not tell another person that he's using that person's pull-up bar fixed in that person's parking space.

I told this person that it's better to just ask the person who should be fine with it and then the trainer also said that he should even be happy that it's getting used. When this person left then I asked the trainer that how many Indians have thinking like this on which he laughed.

Then a thought came to me that a baby Indian street pig asks its mother Indian street pig about how much harmful adulteration its mother's milk might have because of eating much from filth on which the mother Indian street pig responds that it's not human and so can't test the same. I wish that things in India would keep improving and which I think would depend critically on the thinking of Indians in general. I wish us best!

Awesome!!! While writing this, a girl who just finished 10th grade from open board and stays with relatives called mom regarding eating Soya because I eat Soya and that at that time I was having Soya after my workout since my whey protein just got over today. Last time when I had visited them, I had bought a large carton of Soya milk because I had finished whey protein that I was carrying there and I think I had also told her about having Soya.

I spoke to her and she also told me that she's not getting admissions in a govt. school and that someone has told her that she wouldn't get admissions because of her low marks. She has got 42%. Other people have said that they're still trying for her. I wish that she goes to school and that I'll also request people to help her. She wants to do well and stays away from her parents who stay in another city. She stays in Dwarka, New Delhi. My relatives do care well for her. She really wants to go to school and college. I think if given the opportunity, she would do great also because of how much she keeps working at home and that if she would put that level of energy into studying then she should at least do well enough. If anyone can help in this regard then that'll be great.

Its been a while I visited my relatives and even spoke to her and that if I hadn't spoken to her today then I would've got late to help her. I wish that she would get admissions. She has even mentioned to me about not wanting to live because she doesn't have a proper life. I've told her not to think like that and that I would help and that my relatives are also nice to her and that they have helped her finish her 10th class from open school including by teaching her. I had also taught her computer topics. What she has said about not wanting to live also made me think of my personal trainer who a short while ago said that "Hum insaan hai ya kabadi?". (Are we humans or those who live in junk?)

Moreover, there was a problem in the transformer and the power was cut for a while since when I was writing this and talking to her. I had started writing this shortly before she had called. I went outside for a while due to no power and that some people walking around said that our electrician is useless and had things to complain in general. I wish that we live increasingly better as humans including by doing increasingly better as humans. Best!

13th July 2013: Is this also why Indian people go to Singapore and abroad in general? Nice that my new personal trainer didn't come to the gym. He also opens/closes the gym and so it was open till much later till I left after my workout. During past some days, I wasn't doing weight training properly also because I used to reach the gym late and then stop weight training for my stretching session with the personal trainer. Moreover, I was also going to physiotherapy for over two weeks before that and during then also I wasn't doing weight training and so today it was nice to do weight training with proper time to it.

During the workout, I also kept talking to a senior person and that there were some different power cuts throughout the workout. We spoke about issues and he mentioned about idiots not doing their work properly, however, the things improving because more and more people are being able to demand better including because of the improving communication technologies.

I said that it's nice that he's positive about the things improving. I said that children are playing the park which might be having a lot of severely harmful pollutants. He said that earlier the milk from local milkman was much better for him and his children. He said that earlier the people had some things much better. I said that now we should really check the adulteration of the Indian mother's milk because all the pollution and adulterated things going inside the mother would also impact their milk and which could also cause physical and mental harm to the people since when their born and that could also harm our society and environment. I said that I've read about such in articles (and have also shared them online like if you'll Google "Indian mother's milk" then you'll find my article on my Health and Fitness India network site).

He said that in Singapore where has been to, people stop for others to cross even if their vehicle is coming very fast. He said that proper law and enforcement helps there in that regard. I said that how many police would be require to do that in India and that moreover, should police even be there for such things. I said that if people are taught for years since childhood from parents and through proper school curriculum about basic things like not dirtying public place and maintaining traffic sense those people would most likely do much better as they'll grow up and that they would even feel negative about people who're not doing the basic things properly and which would also encourage people to do the basic things properly.

I wonder that how many people would really get milk of new born mothers tested for harmful adulterants including to work on solutions to not have such issues and to also give babies the best possible things that they really can if they would just do the basic things properly.

I wonder that how many people want to get the soil of their parks tested for harmful pollutants. This person had initially essentially said that if you'll think so much then it'll become difficult to live. I think that more and more Indian people might be giving up and if so then how would India become like in the next years and decades? I do think that if people are made aware then enough people should try to do better because if they wouldn't then how would India be really like in the next years and decades? How do feel as an Indian in pollution and when you eat in general? What do you really do about them?

I had said to this person that a street dog might not think that it can do anything and that things are alright as they are on which the person had said that perhaps even the street dog thinks of having better on which I had thought that his point makes sense since we can also see a street dog going around for food and shelter, however, I do think that what it can do can't even be thought to be compared to what a human can do for the same towards becoming like the best.

12th July 2013: God, I'm not an Indian suar. For some months, I've been going to the RWA office of my apartment complex to complain about the very bad smell in my washroom which comes at different times. Perhaps it can also be harmful to the health. The plumber doesn't know why. The other person at the office says that he'll get it figured out because I've told him that this might also affect others later and it might even harm people's health. Moreover, the people staying below my apartment complex have also mentioned to me that the smell comes in their washroom. I had gone to ask them about it. They also said that they've complained in the register, however, nothing has been done. They also told me that they want to go abroad for job and that they've already worked abroad. They work for a top company and that they've several years of experience. Are the better and better educated and/or wealthy Indian people going abroad also because they feel highly unfortunate in India? Since it seems that several of them also migrate and so do those better and better educated and/or wealthy people also feel highly unfortunate as Indians? What's the best next step for me to address this issue? Please help.

7th July 2013: Some reporter shared with me today about the bomb blast terror attack today morning. He mentioned about these people working including as sleeper cells for years before doing the blast. I said wouldn't there be any patterns of such people to help against them. He said that the security agencies keep doing things.

Around an hour after speaking with the reporter, I just read "one has to prudently be concerned about whether TAO is able to perform its mission of collecting foreign intelligence without accessing communications originating in or transiting through the United States." and which made me also think about India. http://www.scmp.com/news/china/article/1259175/inside-nsas-ultra-secret-china-hacking-group

I wish that our world becomes great enough that people don't even think of doing such things. I think that we've the entire universe to maximize. I wish that my efforts www.linkedin.com/in/saranshakti would also be of value for making our world increasingly better. Best!

4th July 2013: Is India melting down? On the HDTV of Life Fitness treadmill, I switched between few movies including Ice Age: The Meltdown, Bad Boys 2, Ninja and some sword warrior movie whose name I forgot and which had warrior in its name. When I switched to Ice Age movie, a character said that it's not even my dog. Around an hour ago, I had asked someone why there're so many dogs on the street when we had gone by some. The person had said that people have become worse than dogs and that he even shared his reasons.

I felt highly unfortunate because yesterday evening some doctor who's doing increasingly well including now going internationally told me that I can't make India into USA even in a hundred years. This person has asked me several times why I came to India from such a nice place. I've tried sharing with this person on the same, however, I think that I can't explain this well enough in a few short conversations. Over the years, I've tried to share with this person that for several reasons including for business and also for doing for society including because of my experiences before I went to USA. I do wish to say that I'm not trying to make India into USA. I did want for several years since I was in USA that I also bring the best of things to India. When I did martial arts in USA for several years then I also thought of bringing my martial art school to India because its grand master runs several schools in USA and abroad. I've kept trying to do the same and since I want to grow to work on trillions of USD of value, someday I also look forward to gaining more knowledge and insights in finance and that I keep learning on several things for the same. I'm also working to have businesses worldwide and I do wish to enjoy our entire world.

It seems to me that the many different people who I've interacted with in India think that nothing can happen in India. I think that a dog or pig or horse or tiger could even be agreed with if they said this, however, how can a human say that? I do think that if the majority is really feeling like this then what would they teach their family and friends and that then how would that impact India? I don't mean to say that these people wouldn't do their best to accomplish their goals, however, would they also be driven by making their society and environment like the best if they feel like that? I wish that my efforts www.linkedin.com/in/saranshakti would be of increasing value in this regard. Best!

30 June 2013: When it comes to overall environment, India ranked among the world’s “Worst Performers,” at No. 125 out of the 132 nations.

http://india.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/01/indias-air-the-worlds-unhealthiest-study-says/?_r=0 

23 June 2013: What will happen to India? Recently at some gym, a senior security person who works out hard spoke with me that he hadn't come to the gym in few days and so he decided to come even though it was late. I've spoken to him few times and I've noticed that even though he works out hard, he doesn't have that much muscle build up. So I asked him if takes any supplements on which he said that he only eats veg food including milk and chana. I shared with him about whey protein that it's also veg. He asked if it has any side effects. I said that it's natural and that having protein of any kind has to be done in proper way.

He said that he's little apprehensive about it. I said that he should be rather inquisitive about it and that read about it online to learn more about it and that also ask other people about it since he already works out hard and that with proper nutrition, he would benefit more. I asked that would he agree to using just any gun for shooting even if it doesn't work properly or would he try to get the best one. He then said that "you're right" and which made me again think that we've to keep making people aware and that the things can get increasingly better if more and more people would become more and more aware and that would also make others aware. I wish that the Health and Fitness India network http://www.healthfitnessindia.com would also be of value in this regard.

Before this conversation, I had suggested him that he through his organization could also take some time to make the general public aware about health and fitness. He had mentioned that even though he has over a decade of experience and that has a table job, he's fit and that's what he tells to his juniors that they should also be fit. I had then said that it's great that he's doing this, however, without improving the society at large, the issues from the core might not improve as much and that like today there would be someone else in his position tomorrow and that the cat and mouse chase would keep going on and that possibly even keep worsening. Recently, I had shared similar with a very senior person related to how entrepreneurship can be applied to address the illegal drugs issue about which I had written in my Macroeconomics paper and which I had also presented to the class of over a hundred students because my professor was very supportive of having students do that. I had almost perfect scores in that class.

It seems that very few people might have some things in India, however, most people in India seem to have almost nothing in terms of basic things. We should also make them realize that why bring new life in the world if you're not even able to take basic care of yourself because is that being human to the new life?

I sometimes wonder who're the best in India and how I can keep learning and contributing with them. Best!

22 June 2013: Lord, I'm sure that you can make people who come to you like the best. I would think many would've come to you. However, then why this? Please help from now. Bahar jao to chota mota suar wali feeling aur bhi aayegi. (Even more feeling of litty fatty pig would come when going out). You can help. Also, I keep coughing due to very high severely harmful pollution. Do you think that also affects people to not do their best? Few days ago, when I saw a part of a newly made road broken then some other person said that tootegi nahin to repair ka tender kaise niklega. (if it wouldn't break then how would the tender for repair come). I'm sure you don't like such poor quality then why? http://newindianexpress.com/nation/Nature-sets-Shivas-abode-back-by-five-decades/2013/06/21/article1645329.ece

19 June 2013: Highly unfortunate! Prominent cycling coach Ruma Chattopadhyay died in a hit-and-run case early on Tuesday morning.

How do you feel as an Indian human to lose the best like this like an Indian street dog hit and killed by a car? What do you do about it? People over the years have told me that let's drink in the car and that it would be fine. I never do that. I say that let's go to some proper place for it (because I'm not an Indian street dog and if for any reasons I can't find a proper place today then I'll create such a place). If you can share this with the much younger people who perhaps don't think like this yet then I think it would be of value for all.

The tragic incident happened when chief coach Ruma, training the cyclists for the UCI juniors track World championship (in Glasgow from August 7 to 11) on the Noida Expressway, was hit from behind by a speeding car around 6 a.m.

“Other coaches assisting her immediately took her to the nearby Kailash Hospital, where she was declared brought-dead,” said Cycling Federation of India (CFI) Assistant Secretary V.N. Singh.

14 June 2013: Amazing and highly unfortunate! Yesterday, I wrote about international and Indian dogs a part of which is "yesterday evening, someone told me that people who can pay more and more in India want better and better international dogs and not Indian dogs. I said that there could also be Indian dogs who could be of value to them and which could also benefit the Indian dogs. I'm thinking of better and better trained and equipped guard dogs."

Today, when I left gym I had two used cartons of Soya milk and one used plastic bottle of Gatorade. I was trying to find where to dispose them and that after a short distance, I came across big waste bins used for the locality on my way to the Metro and that a dead dog was there. I felt very upset that street dogs don't deserve such pathetic conditions with so much severely harmful pollution, possible lack of enough proper food due to high urban development and possible regular ill-treatment by people around due to so many people around and that due to so many issues in our society including high congestion, the aggression probably also comes out on them like people driving without caring about them on the streets. I think that why our previous generations have let them exist on the street till now even after so many decades of Independence and with probably many more means to remove them from the streets. How do you feel as an Indian when you think about this? I wish that the Health and Fitness India network would also be of value www.healthfitnessindia.com in this regard. I wish us the best!

This is what I had written yesterday: 

I've been reading about the recent surveillance issue in USA and yesterday evening, someone told me that people who can pay more and more in India want better and better international dogs and not Indian dogs. I said that there could also be Indian dogs who could be of value to them and which could also benefit the Indian dogs. I'm thinking of better and better trained and equipped guard dogs. One would think that the street dogs also respond based on what comes to their senses, however, the difference is that they're not trained to guard. They're different strangers that humans come across just like humans come across a variety of domesticated and wild animals. I think that if the training and equipment are proper then the guard dogs can be more and more of a security asset to humans. For me, it would be great if I could also have the best guard dogs to meet my security requirements since most likely most people never get the best trained and equipped guard dogs. Perhaps one thing for people to accept is that guard dogs will have to keep sensing you to guard you. If you've never been physically intimate in front of a guard dog then perhaps try it because that's its work to guard you wherever and whenever it can. We can try to train and equip dogs to give them one more kind of meaningful existence. Similarly, I think the technologies to gather, store and analyze data can do great for us. Best!

9 June 2013: Came across two lovely children. One of them was in arms of a lady (perhaps mother) in a shop. I was standing behind them and the baby kept looking at me and that I was wearing my anti-pollution mask. Another one was with another lady (perhaps mother) in the elevator. This child seemed to had come from swimming and that said to the lady that there are two 5's and so I said that when you've to go to 5 then which one would you press on which the child laughed and then said that you're also going to 5. I was going to 7 but a sticker of 5 has been put on it because the sticker of 7 had gotten spoiled and perhaps the management had a spare sticker for 5 but not for 7. Then I thought that a week ago, it was my nephew's 5th birthday and that a few days ago I got my root canal redone about which I had written to had got it done around 5 years ago and that the dentist hadn't done it properly according to the dentist who's a professor and a researcher. It's like one's a proper 5 and another's not!!! Amazing!!! What's the future of today's Indian children with so much harmful air pollution, food adulteration and other issues? How highly unfortunate do you feel when you read http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/news/Delhi-University-admission-Marks-matter-for-talents-of-extracurricular-activities/articleshow/20486348.cms and it mentions that the reason for this change is so that this system isn't misused. Rather than building and growing systems, it seems that people are much busier trying to keep the systems at least not broken because of all the issues. How highly unfortunate would the youth today feel about having such previous generations that our conditions are such? What do you do to make them better? I wish that my overall efforts would be of value about which I also keep sharing onwww.linkedin.com/in/saranshakti Best!

29 May 2013: A friend told me a short while ago that lawyer, friends and relatives were concerned about losing money during divorce and that I'm the only person who told him to think about that his wife has recently got pregnant and that a divorce with a child would be difficult for him and the child in the long term. If she's mentally unstable based on things that she's been doing and saying then perhaps there can be a valid reason for abortion. I shared with him several things and he said that even though I'm not a lawyer, I had told him things today and also before which he had later heard from the lawyer. I told him that I'm only trying to help as a friend (and a human). The above discussion happened after gym.

When I went to gym today, a police jeep came and stopped in front of me and that I saw one of the officers walk through a path about which I had been thinking to write for a while! I walked faster so that I could walk with the officer on the same path. Amazingly, he and I stepped on the same thing at the same time which is a large piece of concrete which shakes when one walks on it. I had earlier thought that when Lord Ram had gone to Lanka then his army had walked over a bridge of stones that kept floating on water and so those stones would've also shaken even though the army was able to cross the water. Some weeks ago when I was sitting with a restaurant owner which is in open-air next to this path, I had seen a street dog sitting around there and that which had kept coming around the restaurant and him on which he had said that it's night and so it wants food. I had kept thinking that if Lord Ram had helped us with mindset and know-how related to construction then in so many years, India could've been like the best than I feeling like an Indian street dog, pig, donkey and other highly unfortunate animals given humans are capable in general. I thought that perhaps the police officer would notice this construction issue as it would shake underneath him and perhaps also the other issues around there and that would do something about them in public and his interest since he also works and walks there. 

While I was gym, my friend who I mentioned above kept calling me from his another number which I didn't answer. When I met him after gym, he said that I've become like our police by not answering the phone. Just now I read "Delhi women scared of going to police stations: Dikshit" http://news.in.msn.com/her_courage/delhi-women-scared-of-going-to-police-stations-dikshit-1 

Moreover, my friend and I picked up some food to go and that while talking to the manager there, he said that people aren't interested in being happy but in not letting others be happy which was highly unfortunate. I wonder that if amazing temples of Lord Ram are made and then if people are inspired to keep outside the temples and also their places like the best then would that help? My friend kept showing me the many broken parts of the roads that people got dug up for laying the water pipes but then didn't get those little parts of the roads fixed even though they're living in nice houses. He was very upset. I wish him the best.

26 May 2013: Suar Suar Mujhe Log Bole played inside when a girl who I called while in metro told me about the pathetic condition of Yamuna after she saw the much nicer condition of Ganga in Haridwar. I told her that metro was standing for a while at Yamuna Bank station when she told me this. After that I got off at Vaishali station and that it was smelling very bad outside. It felt highly unfortunate that after so many years of Independence, how come such conditions and that what did Indian in general think and do after reading the board that said dogs and Indians not allowed and how much has that affected today's highly unfortunate conditions? How do you feel when you travel abroad and people mention such things? What do you think happens to most of those people who eat nice baby food like Nestle Cerelac and then start eating harmful adulterated things? What do you think happens to most of those people who highly unfortunately drink adulterated mother's milk? http://www.healthfitnessindia.com/profiles/blogs/gym-trainer-marriage-rickshaw-indian-street-dogs-mothers-milk What do you do about this highly severe issue? Ek general Indian ki feeling kaisi hai? The girl told me that she was pink earlier but now her pinkness has been going away. I shared with her that the pollution is very high and severely harmful and that would also harm the skin. In story books, we generally see pigs to be pink but if you look at Indian street pigs, which colors do you find them? How do you feel and what do you do about it since we're humans? Best!

22 May 2013: I felt like an Indian street dog when I shocked the security guard sitting and sleeping at the main gate. Power had been cut for around half an hour and I tried the main gate number but I didn't have it correctly. So I went to the main gate and that I had to ask the security guard few times about having electricity issue before he woke up in shock. After some walking around with another guard, I found the electrician who then told me that the breaker had tripped due to overload. Think of Indian street dog living in pathetic conditions about which it can't do anything. Even though we're paying for security during the night, it's sleeping at that time including at the main gate. This feeling is now getting combined with Chote Mote Suar Teri Muththi Mein Kya Hai song playing inside when I think that there can be size variation in Indian street dogs but they're still dogs living in pathetic conditions. How unfortunate are we to have previous generations that have led us to this in general? I wish us the best including for our future generations. Please also care for http://www.healthfitnessindia.com/profiles/blogs/gym-trainer-marriage-rickshaw-indian-street-dogs-mothers-milk Best!

Updated during 2012: Today at India Gate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India_Gate with so much filth lying around I felt like an Indian street dog considering the best in the world and thinking of people being at great historical places around the world and that of the experiences of people there. I wish that just like the Delhi Metro, the entire area has loudspeakers on which regular recorded announcements are made regarding throwing garbage in dustbins or else getting fined and for other important things to provide an excellent experience there. Perhaps this would also help grow a generation which would get used to much cleaner places and that then it would not make its places filthy even without being told not to do so like on the loudspeakers. In this regard, one crucial thing is to raise awareness on getting Indian mother's milk tested since adulterated mother's milk can lead to physical and mental issues in people since they're babies.

After India Gate, I met a friend in CP who's in the Police and that I mentioned to him that I think that having effective deterrents can reduce law breaking by a lot. Even in regards to public drinking, I mentioned that if parts of public areas are allowed for drinking then people will have a place for the same and that which would further reduce people drinking just anywhere and that then much fewer police officers would get a lot more results related to public drinking issues than when a lot more people are breaking laws since there just isn't enough police to get to all of them.

As a kid, I used to go to children's park every possible weekend for a long while and that once I had also walked from India Gate to East of Kailash E-block where I stayed for several years. Now, the pollution is so much that if one breathes deeply in general (which I've reduced over the years after coming to India due to the pollution here particularly in the Delhi region) then it's difficult to be outside in several places particularly having many polluting vehicles and that if it's a congested area then it becomes a lot worse. Highly unfortunately, I also lost my anti pollution mask recently while being out and helping a friend find a property to purchase. I've thought of several times to move to a place having a much nicer environment. Today, my another friend gave me his anti pollution mask for few days until I get my new one since he uses it rarely. I had had a Cassata ice-cream at India Gate and that it was highly unfortunate that I was feeling like a dog there. I was with my partner there for a meeting and that some days ago, we were at Lodhi Gardens which felt very nice and that I had also had a Cassata there. It's also highly unfortunate that some years ago when I had asked some people doing well on what it says under the gun and hat at India Gate then they didn't know it. I've also suggested people that if all of us can have weapons along with training to protect ourselves then we can even be a much better place but mostly I haven't got a positive response.

After meeting my friend in CP, I went to gym and that after gym, I thought of getting an auto-rickshaw to my place than walking back and that I had a nice experience. To give the driver change, I had to go to the ice-cream street vendor nearby and that I also offered the driver an ice-cream and that he asked for a 15 INR one but which were finished and then the vendor said that there's 20 INR one, however, he rather than asking for a more expensive one since I was going to pay for it, he asked for a 10 INR one on which I told him to get the 20 INR one since I felt that he would've liked to have that one but that he seemed a bit upset and low because he had told me that his child was suffering from diarrhea and that he was going to get him medicines. I asked him whether he was going to a proper doctor and that he responded with some name which I didn't know. I wish that he's getting proper medical attention for his child and that I wish him the best for he seemed like a nice person.

Best,

Shakti Saran

What do you think the top Indians would do when they would read that AIIMS and other hospitals are violating solid waste rules? Is it due to they lacking anything? If so then can they get public assistance? Yeh suaron ke liye kooda phekne wali jagah nahi hain, yeh top insaano ke institutions hain India mein (They're not flith dumping places for pigs, they're top human institutions in India). http://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/aiims-8-other-hospitals-violating-solid-waste-rules-ngt-113080601065_1.html

At gym, the security guard gave me a towel, however, I picked my own. He kept looking at me and I thought that I would share with gym management which I did after the workout. I explained that the security guard's hands can be dirty from anything and it's better if people pickup towels by themselves. The person at front desk appreciated my input and said that the security guard table can be moved away a bit so that people can easily pickup the towels.

After gym, I asked the mall security guard at one corner where I've been noticing several street dogs that why they're increasing on which he said that they don't bite. I said that they can. Then he said that some dogs bit some people in a nearby area and then several dogs were taken away by the municipal body after they got a complaint. The surprising part is that mall management and shop owners aren't doing anything about this because I would think that it would be affecting their business.

When Britishers used to put boards that dogs and Indians not allowed then why did they think like that to put up such boards? Have you ever thought of what they thought? Suaron mein kisi ko bhi suar bol do, Shero mein kisi ko bhi sher bol do. Humans mein jab Indian bolo to really kaisa lage? Is this also why Indians keep moving abroad including a girl who some years ago had shared about wanting to improve India and had also prepared for IAS twice, however, now wants to move abroad. Best!
