We, @mkfindia have been shouting hoarse about the bad effects of #UltraProcessedFoods. It takes an economic survey for the news to become headlines as to how UPFs damage our health and hence the economy. instagram.com/reel/DEJ-P1KMe… instagram.com/reel/DEY-bxPop…

We thank our honourable PM @narendramodi ji for exhorting people to reduce their oil intake by atleast 10% & indirectly supporting our campaign, #EkChammachKam , 30% of reduction of oil, salt, & sugar. 😉 People now will be using less oil, no need to tax oil in tmrw’s budget 😉

This scam website called National Kidney foundation.yolasite.com is falsely using my name and details. The website talks about buying and selling kidneys. Need to urgently bring this possible scam to authority attention. Share. @CYBTRAFFIC @MahaCyber1 @isn_india @MumbaiPolice

On my desk today, this book " The Kidney Warriors, Edition 2" - a compilation of articles by well known Nephrologists from all over India and some very poignant and real life experiences penned by #CKD pts, on how they've faced the diagnosis of kidney failure. The patient and caregivers' perspective on what happens to a pt when he or she is given a diagnosis of kidney failure is well brought out in this book reading the multiple experiences that have been shared. Congratulations @vasuragh and to your editorial team. Worth a buy. Available on @amazonIN

And there’s the third 1A recommendation Statins in CKD I think they are underused (and are the target of deprescribing/nihilism/renalism) CKD patients mostly die of CVD Give them statins. DOn’t stop Statins #NephJC

Just a question to the CAM practitioners (urf Ayurveda and Unani Doctors) - is mercury/heavy metals still an essential component of your meds, can't you eliminate it from your formulations? "Twenty-eight patients were enrolled in the study, with a median duration of CAM intake of 4 months (interquartile range, 2-6 months). Heavy metal screening was performed in 17 patients, of whom 15 had elevated urine mercury levels, 10 had elevated blood mercury levels, and 1 had elevated blood and urine arsenic levels. Of the 6 CAM formulations that were analyzed, all had high levels of mercury." kidneymedicinejournal.org/ar…
