WHAT WE ARE CONSUMING
THX VINITA JI,MAX PRICE SHOULD BE MANDATORY FOR ALL MEDICINES,NO MATTER ITS CROCIN OR STENT.ONE MORE THING I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT SOME MEDICINES , LIKE CROCIN , WHICH ARE BANNED IN OTHER COUNTRIES, ARE OPENLY SOLD IN INDIA.OVER ALL , WE ALL HUMANS HAVE SAME BIOLOGY.
NEXT , AURVEDIC MEDICINES, HAVE NO EXPIRY DATE.ITS ASSUMED THAT THEY CAN BE USED UP TO ANY TIME.
IT ALSO SHOULD BE COVERED WITH EXPIRY OR BEST BEFORE.
IN FOOD ARTICLES, COMMERCIAL THINGS ARE WRITTEN IN BOLD LETTERS, WHILE BEST BEFORE , ONE HAS TO SEARCH . ONLY MONTH / YEAR IS WRITTEN, WHY NOT DATE?
IT MAKES DIFFERENCE OF 30 DAYS.
WE ARE UNAWARE OF PESTICIDES, AND TABLETS LIKE PHENYL, DDT, AND OTHERS , WHICH ARE ADDD IN GRAINS , DALS , RICE TO PRESERVE THEM SAFE.THESE ARE ADDED BY STOCKISTS, SHOP KEEPERS AND ALSO BY HOUSE WIVES ACCORDING TO THEIR KNOW HOW.IN CITIES, HOUSES ARE SMALL.NOT ENOUGH SPACE , SO AS TO CLEAN WITH WATER AND GET IT DRY TO MAKE IT SAFE FROM PESTICIDES.
GOVT SHOULD MAKE ANY ADVISORY AS TO WHAT SHOULD BE USED, TO PRESERVE, WHICH IS NOT HARMFUL.
1) All the PP and medicines are supposed to have expiry date as per Rule.This includes Crosin and paracetemol also. 2)Some ayurvedic medicines should have to have expiry date, 3) Some ayurvedic medicine which are from natural sources do not required expiry date, as the old "kadhas,Kasya" are more effective.

Ayurvedic medicines also carry date of manufacture and expiry date, from my experience. I have been a regular user since 1992. Especially well known brands like Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala etc. Also paracetamols like Crocin are not to be taken on self-medication as they can harm the taker. Frequent injudicious use can result in internal bleeding. Particularly when several cancer victims undergo chemotherapy they should not be administered such drugs like Crocin or Statin which may result in brain haemmorhage leading to paralysis and even death.
