The numbers are no more surprising rather are shocking. From calorie deficiency to calories excessive food, India has transitioned really quickly to this harsh reality of childhood obesity, which is alarming. Packaged food contain endocrine disruptors which may also contribute.
Anuja Jaisswal@AnujaJaiswalTOI

India is among the top three countries globally with the highest number of #children affected by excess #weight, with about 41 million aged 5–19 living with high body mass index (BMI), including nearly 14 million with obesity, a new #globalreport has found. The World Obesity Atlas 2026 shows India, along with China and the United States, accounts for a large share of the global burden, showing that the country now faces both undernutrition and rising obesity among children. #india #obesity #overweight @timesofindia @drmohanv

There is growing uncertainty whether high LDL cholesterol is a causative factor for atherosclerosis or not. On the other hand more studies are indicating that circulating #oxidisedLDL in blood can be a useful & better marker for Coronary Artery Disease. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/01…

SP Kalantri@spkalantri·
I retired as Medical Superintendent of Sevagram Hospital three years ago. Since then, I have been waging a quiet war against forgetting. It began with blank stares. A first-year resident, fresh from her MBBS in Kerala, drew a blank when I mentioned Dr. Sushila Nayar, our founder. Another asked, “Dhirubhai who?” about a former president. These were the people who built MGIMS. Yet their names are fading in the very place they shaped. I have called this project Architects of MGIMS. Institutions are not made of bricks and reports alone. They are shaped by those who arrive, argue, disagree, create, persist—and slowly leave their mark. To piece this together, I went back to annual reports from the 1970s, faculty records, and long conversations with retired teachers now in their eighties—their spouses, children, and colleagues. I met those still on campus. So far, I have written 93 profiles—not a polished history, but something of the texture of our early years, before silence claims them. It now lives as a digital archive, open to all. We begin today, on Id-Ul-Fitr, with the first profile—Dr. Sushila Nayar. The hospital corridors are quiet for the holiday, but perhaps these pages will bring Sevagram to life again. Read here: books.kalantri.co.in/architect/dr-s…

Any takers for this contrasting view on LDL?
Valerie Anne Smith@ValerieAnne1970

"The longest lived people had high Cholesterol...I am a great defender of Cholesterol. It is a molecule of life." ~Dr Ben Bikman, PhD "Studies on longevity show that we need LDL to fight infections...it is an unsung hero of immunity." "The higher your LDL, the longer you live." Lowering LDL thru statin drugs has deadly & deleterious effects. For example, It has been documented that when LDL drops below 70 mg/dL, hemorrhagic strokes (brain bleeds) increase almost 3 fold. When total cholesterol is chemically lowered below 180 mg/dL the rate of cancer & dementia increases drastically. And when total cholesterol stays below 150, chronic illnesses like cancer & autoimmune diseases occur & cannot be healed nor put into remission. LDL is a transport molecule for cholesterol & is responsible for these key functions: 1) LDL maintains cell membrane structure & keeps electron flow stable. 2) It builds lipid rafts that organize cell signaling & redox balance. 3) LDL delivers fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E & K for critical functions. 4) It transports antioxidants like vitamin E to fight oxidative stress. 5) LDL supplies cholesterol to repair damaged tissues & membranes. 6) It provides raw material for making all steroid hormones. 7) LDL neutralizes bacterial toxins & supports innate immunity. 8) It helps structure water around membranes to maintain charge. 9) LDL buffers electromagnetic energy & supports cellular resilience. 10) It delivers energy-rich triglycerides to keep metabolism flexible.

Excellent article by @Rupalijee in @timesofindia on #semaglutide's patent expiry today & what it means for India's #obesity crisis. #Generic entry could halve costs, but quality & supervised care must remain #non-negotiable. My quotes included. A must-read.

Reconsideration.. even if things are established and in practice, asking new questions can still provide better solutions… keep asking, keep investigating, things will improve for better

"HbA1c conundrum" the growing recognition that the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test, long considered the "gold standard" for managing blood sugar, does not always tell the whole story and can produce misleading results in millions of people @tez_choudhary11 @drkeithsiau
