To summarize: 1. One whole egg with yolk a day does not increase blood cholesterol 2. Green tea does not help you lose weight 3. Jaggery, honey or sugarcane are not healthier than white sugar 4. There is no "healthy alcohol" 5. Ashwagandha does not reduce stress or help you

It is #COVID19 that is leaving people with neurological problems. It is not the vaccine. SARS-CoV-2 spike mRNA vaccine does not contain the intact virus. Only active virus infecting the brain can replicate inside the neuron, as shown in the image below. It is crystal clear.

One in two Indians isn’t physically as active as they need to be to avoid falling prey to non-communicable diseases such as #diabetes #cardiovasculardisease The need for being physically active can’t be stressed enough

What a massive super cell it was and it is still continuing and remains stagnant over Delhi NCR. Strange but its almost like some divine power came to the rescue of Delhi NCR which was in horrific heat and humidity...God bless us all. #Faridabad #DelhiNCR #DelhiRains #monsoons
