Learn how to identify real Organic Food and not get fooled by all the products calling themselves natural
Learn how to identify real Organic Food and not get fooled by the buzz of all the products calling themselves natural!
For the layperson, organic has many connotations such as ‘natural’, ‘eco-friendly’, ‘no pesticides’ and so on. Add to this the proliferation of new products in the market claiming to be safe, natural, healthy, and we have the perfect recipe for confusion.
Are all ‘natural’ products organic? Are organic products really completely free of pesticides? How can one trust that a manufacturer who is promising us an organic product is really delivering on it?
In this video, Mallika Mathew, Program Manager at the Institute of Marketecology, Bangalore tells us what organic food really is and how to understand it.
Hope you enjoyed watching that and can be a more aware shopper from now on!

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
