It was always rumoured to be extremely bad for health in the long term.

Yes. The elderly women in my family really opposed taking it.

Most "shortcut" medicines have known or unknown adverse effects. These typically work by overriding regular bodily operations and hacking them to give short term relief.

Exactly. It inhibits normal bodily functions

"Poorly written article, will lead to unnecessary panic. The side effects listed are very common for NSAIDS. This issue has most likely been raised because parents are giving this to their children for fever, and also general overconsumption (which should be avoided for all medicines either way)"  
  
 Friend who's a scientist, also female

Damn, almost every woman I know uses these often enough. Sometimes 2 in a day.

My mother is diagnosed with Grade 4 liver damage today. She also has Type 2 diabetes which "does not subside"

She doesn't eat any sugars, cut out starch, very very occasional outside/packaged food, no alcohol, has been working (job and household), works around clock in the house
Taking allopathic medicines for diabetes, now may start diet restrictions for Liver damage too

Strongly feel she is being mis-diagnosed. 
The hospitals and diagnostic centre are trying to milk healthy people too. How else do you keep up revenue

Have you faced similar situations? What can be done here?

P.S. Most of the doctors we have met are big C, the ones who sound genuine are the ones not treating 😪

Why would an govt authority allow more pesticides into food? Especially when our spices are ridiculed in international markets for such things and our protein powders have pesticides in them.

Is FSSAI truly a joke?

FSSAI allows 10 times more pesticide in spices. Are we doomed?

Nestlé’s baby food brands including Cerelac and Nido added sugar in the form of sucrose, in lower and lower-middle income countries including India — but not in the products sold in Europe or UK, according to a report by Swiss investigative organisation Public Eye and International Baby Food Action Network (IBFAN).

The research was conducted at a lab in Belgium, and examined Nestlé’s baby food products from Asia, and Africa branded as Cerelac, Nido, Mucilon and Dancow. These contained an average of 3 grams per serving, and in some cases up to 6 grams. Similar products tested in the European markets showed no added sugar. A Nestlé India spokesperson has attested that the company has reduced the sugar content in the baby product portfolio by 30% over the past five years, NDTV reported. In 2022, the sales on these products exceeded Rs.20,000 crore in India alone.

Nestlé has been under the scanner in the past for similar violations in several African countries. Reports from the 1970s raised the alarms on their unethical marketing practices in an effort to push artificial feeding over breastfeeding.

Internal source: most vps are around the table these days, and too busy to get goats to sack this week.  For Byju's product team, this week is crucial, usual results are out on Friday. ( product, design and media)  45% -50% cut from each team. 

There won’t be any news about Byjus from now on, my wife was the source, and she got laid off today.
