Not surprised your fragile ego takes a hit over someone making money, or having a successful career.
I and my career, my work, will continue to exist despite Twitter or X or Y. The same cannot be said of you.
Long after you and I are gone - a lot my songs, I daresay with all humility, will play on.
You are a Twitter handle of a movie character with a spelling mistake.

Get a grip.
A woman remarking the lack of safety and dingbat responses are - why are you here? Leave India!

I am in trouble. I debunked one video from the Satvik Couple and I have been getting requests to debunk more of their videos. I took a close look at some of the videos sent to me, specifically on health and medicine and I am worried that the couple are misleading A LOT of people on Instagram regarding healthcare.
Let me tell you at first, that I have nothing against the couple, Subah and Harsh Saraf, because they have to make a living and they do so very passionately, by defrauding others. And they are good at it. It is what they were born to do. But it is a doctor's responsibility to debunk misinformation. So I'm going to debunk their health videos, one by one, as time permits.
Coming to the topic.
Table salt vs Iodized salt vs Himalayan (Rock) salt: The Satvik Movement is the greatest tomfoolery on Indians.
The video briefly explains, by giving false information on various types of salt, why Himalayan salt or "sendha namak" is the best, safest, healthiest salt there is, compared to Table salt and Iodized salt.
Everything the woman goes on about, is false. A million people have seen this video. Its so sad.
Satvik Lady says: Table salt is synthetic and contains anti-caking additives which makes it free flowing and has a lot of refining processes that makes it "chemical" and not natural. Iodized salt contains added synthetic iodine which is not good and can harm the fluid balance in the body. It is heavily marketed by companies and is promotional. Natural iodine can be consumed from green vegetables and lentils. Himalayan salt or Rock salt is natural, unrefined and without chemical additives and hence the best.
Everything is wrong about the above statements. Table salt is sodium chloride. It is REFINED and PROCESSED to remove other unwanted minerals, so that you are consuming only pure sodium chloride.
Approved and safe anti-caking agents are added to prevent it clumping to each other especially in humid regions.
Other additives during Table salt refining are fortification agents that improve nutritive value - for example, flouride for enamel health in countries that do not flouridate water and ferrous fumarate to prevent iron deficiency anemia. All of these additives are safe and approved by respective health regulatory bodies. foodinsight.org/the-science-of…
Iodized salt is refined sodium chloride with added iodine done to prevent iodine deficiency in countries where iodine intake is suboptimal from in natural diet. - an example is vegetarian diet. Contrary to what the lady says - vegetables and lentils ARE VERY POOR SOURCES of iodine. In fact, a predominatly fresh vegetable & fruit diet is considered a "low iodine diet." The lady is pulling off a complete bluff. It is quite worrisome.

The only vegetarian source of iodine is seaweed and good sources of iodine are mostly fish/seafood and other animal protein sources such as dairy and eggs. If you are not consuming such natural sources of iodine, then please use iodized salt in your diet and not plain table salt or Rock salt. Rock salt is very deficient in iodine and is not good for daily use.

In India, the promotion of iodized salt was undertaken by the Government and not "marketed by companies." The Government of India accepted the recommendations of the Working Group and Study Group, and on the advice of the Central Council of Health in 1984 took a historic decision to iodize the entire edible salt in a phased manner by 1992 and included in the Seventh Five Year Plan (1985-1990) of Government of India - this formed part of the National Iodine Deficiency Program of India that took care of iodine-deficiency goiter disease in the population.

Sendha namak or Rock salt is unrefined salt. Its overglorified benefits are because it features in the pseudoscientific texts of Ayurveda - a primal collection of brilliant nonsense. It is just the solid mined form of salt which contains a lot of impurities. In fact, if we have to define which of these are actually "more chemical," then it has to be rock salt because it not only contains sodium chloride, but also gypsum (CaSO4) and sylvite (KCl), potassium sulfate and polyhalite (K2Ca2Mg(SO4)4.2H2O)!
In fact a study showed that despite rock salt containing additional "natural" nutrient-minerals, >30 g per day (approximately 6 teaspoons) would be required to make any meaningful contribution to nutrient intake, a level that would provide excessive sodium and potential harmful effects and hence the risk to public health from potentially harmful non-nutritive minerals should be addressed. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Rock salt is EXPENSIVE. It has NO additonal benefits over Table salt and is INFERIOR to Iodized salt. In fact, a study showed that when it comes to heart health and blood pressure, there was no difference between Rock salt or Table salt and the latter is a cheaper and more affordable option.

So the best salt there is, for the Indian community?
Iodized salt it is. But be careful, use it in moderation, because salt is salt. Add a bit to taste only.
The Satvik health videos are absolute clownery and a danger to public health. Who will take care of it?

There is going to be a big backlash from the Homeopathy community in Kerala against me like before, not in form of scientific rebuttals, but personal attacks, shaming, giving out personal details and workplace harassment.
Sreevals Menon pictured below is a Homeopathic practitioner based in Kerala, who's main group, the IHK or Institute of Homeopaths of Kerala members were responsible for extreme forms of harassment I had to face while educating people on medical science that benefits public health.
The groups members attacked my Lab and doxxed the Lab people, shot live videos streamed on FB and called for violence against the Lab members including hurting the Lab director, an elderly man.
After four years of good faith collaboration with the Lab, I had to let them go, quite painfully for their personal safety and was left without a partner Lab to perform sample analysis for over a year.
Homeopaths go any lengths to defend their fraud businesses. I go any length to defend the people's health. There is a difference.
