World Hypertension Day

Guess what? I read NIN Dietary Guidelines for Indians 2024

There is an entire Guideline (chapter) on reducing salt.

There is an entire Guideline on drinking water.

I know thinking to yourself should not be a tweet. (It should just remain in your mind.)

Oh my God! New prescription. What are these for?

(context: I translate French medical (psychiatry) documents and am fascinated with drugs used.)

Phobias
Phobia is an irrational and excessive fear of an object or a situation. You cannot have a phobia of tiger or a cobra, because that would be rational.
But excessive fear of cock-roaches, or wall lizards (I can hear some of you say 'eeks !') would be a phobia.
Severe

I keep writing two liners to long notes about mental health issues. These posts have a limited purpose of raising awareness and de-mystifying psychiatry. Social media notes cannot cover specific, individual situations.
If your psychiatrist/ psychologist has a different opinion

Just not possible....I don't think TOI will ever look like a normal newspaper.

It is like a teenager which has its own mind and dresses as it pleases. This brat will never grow up.

Nor will its monopolistic ways. You have to buy two newspapers to read one!

Anyone watching TimesNow news hour debate? How wretched, malicious, convoluted, demented this Ravi Srivastav (and Vivek Silas) is! The way these people are defending Arvind Kejriwal is so despicable! How low will they stoop?

I think standing still (cautiously) is a good idea.

Another good idea is to calmly walk away.

In Bengaluru, I walked home at around 3 am with lots of dogs barking at me. I did not even look at them or count them. I just calmly proceeded to reach home.

Dr Deepak Krishnamurthy Yes, I've seen people do that. Blaming planets for their misdeeds! Shani Dev is all about justice and karma. No point blaming Him for our karmas! 😊😊

Everything is not due to nutritional deficiency, and there could be umpteen reasons for each of the mentioned symptoms from the most benign to the most fatal medical conditions.
Nutrition is important but not the only fix for all problems.

Found two tablets without the name. Luckily, ther was a small bar code on it. I read the barcode to find out that it is Dispirin.

This is a great idea. Wish they put barcodes or a pin/zip type of code on strips to easily determine the medicine.
