Eat this and get cancer…hey you are already using it….!



Aaiiiiiiiiiiiiyyyyyyyyyyyyyoooooo...iodine…that’s the heading of an article in last week’s kalki. .by a Dr p. ravichandran who is writing a series on kidneys.
We do not use the iodised salt. We usually buy it from the vendor who comes on the street every Tuesday or Friday , and if we have to use the powdered variety we buy the packet salt that is cheaper and not iodised.

Let us see what this author has to say……
About five lakhs years ago,,,there was no salt or sugar…much as these are needed in their natural form for our well being.. they were got from the natural foods like fruits and vegetables. Why the sudden rush for iodine…. They claim that it is good for memory and good for growing children…etc etc.. the ads take care to sell it by camouflaging the fact that this iodised salt is 90 % sodium only….! They buy the normal salt from salt mines grind it and take away the potassium magnesium and zinc sulphate. That is present …. These are used for fertilizers …in fact a double cross…! And when you consume this iodised salt you are prone to cancer…… what little iodine you need you get from natural foods. ……!
So go ahead and get those crystalised common salt and use it…..

Dear Sathya ma'm,

Hai sahtya

nan ushar ayiten i really enjoyed the talk between u and vidya

And sathya mam, very informative message but still iam confused, some poeple say Iodised salt is gud for health and some says its bad:confused:

But when i was detected as Thyroid patient, doctor adviced me to use KAL UPPU and stop using Iodised salt

and , ,y mom used to say if we get salt on tuesdays and fridays, its very very very good, 'LAKSHMI VRUVA" to our place

Anyhow, thank u very much for sharing

Hi Vidya,
You get kallu uppu in Bahrain ???
We don't get here in UAE ; in some shops, imported from UK, sea-salt is available but ridiculously priced for just a small dabba.
Can you tell which brand name you use, at least that name I can search here ....?
Thanks.

good information, Sathya.
I used to buy Iodised salt.
From now on ordinary salt
.
Where I can find 'kal uppu' in US?
Any help here from our friends and what brand is available?

hello lathamurali

salt is actually not necessary for our well being.. it is just that we use it for taste. salt is available to us in natural forms in vegetables and fruits. so if you get used to using very little salt for taste. it will be good for health.
perhaps the reason why we go saltless on tuesdays or fridays. any day is ok...
very few people need extra iodine.. in any case it cannot be got from iodised salt.. although this is widely advertised.... you have a doctors word to vouch for it....!so go ahead and demand kal uppu...
and huge companies and swindling our dear population of good health....!
