Friends, it is shocking that to meet the supply in metro cities, and for more benefits the Indian farmers are injecting vegetables with oxytocin. The vegetable which normally take 10 -15 days to get prepared for using, farmers inject them with oxytocin on the very first day and it get prepared in 2-3 days. Such vegetable produced is not good for health. Our government should be strict on this and the faulty farmers should be punished.

Yeah it has been in practice since long..since oxytocin is cheap and readily available and cheaper as compared to fertilizers, farmers are making use of this female hormone..popularly known as love hormone into veggies..posing threat to our health.
The practice of injecting the vegetables with chemicals to make them ripe in a short time and adding artificial colors to impart fresh look to the vegetables is an old one about which everybody including law enforcing authorities are aware. Nothing precious has been done in this direction.
In fact, I saw that now retail shoppe such as big bazzar and Dmart are selling fruit and Veggie spray wash to clean veggies. Yet another trap of consumerism. First give more than required amount of pesticide, inject oxytocin to make veggies and fruit look bigger and ripen fruits and veggies before time and then flood the market with costly fruits and veggie spray wash!
In whatever way you look, this practice of injecting chemicals to boost their appearance is rampant everywhere including prestigious outlets located in colorful Malls.
Yes, and to camouflage the pitfall of sale of vegetables and fruits covered with high amount of pesticide, we now have shops selling organic products as a substitute to these veggies n fruits and at a higher rate.

The problem with organic vegetables is, veggies can't be produced in bulk quantity as it involves heay expenditure. That's why they are expensive and they are available in select outlets of select cities.

Absolutely correct..since the production is slower..price rise is bound to happen. But not everybody can afford organic products, eatables...something needs to be done to correct this erring situation in the near future.

Growing our own garden is the only solution. Small quantities of vegetables can be grown in pots.
These injected vegetables denied required glucose which we normally get from these vegetables. :whistle: :whistle:
Yesterday I read that 99% of mangoes in the country are ripened by using Calcium carbide as the are harvested while still unripe. It is recommended that all fruits and vegetables must be washed many times before consumption for safety sake. Laws can be made but how do you implement them in such large country.
Which is why, people take care of themselves in their own way without looking for help from the law enforcing authorities. After all it's our life.

Not just oxytocin, but the veggies and fruits such as carrots, spinach, melons etc. are injected with colour and sugar syrup to make them appear brighter and taste sweeter! :blink: So instead of eating all-natural veggies, we are still eating a load of chemicals daily!

True. Mixing colors and other additives is being done openly. I have seen it. This is a common scene in our vegetable markets.

Now eating even a slice of apple will land you in a hospital. Take the charge. Don't wait for somebody for controlling the conditions if you want to live an ailment free life.
People who are money minded making these kind of vegetable poison to mankind. By using carbide several persons are making fruits before it turns to its stage naturally. They can raise the vegetable price instead of injecting the vegetables and fruits. People are nowadays ready to buy organic items but how much quality that item contain is ?. Live and let live others happily in the society.

Organic stuff is good in all respects but they are expensive with limited availability.
Selling poison is not just limited to fruits and veggies..even ice-cream and sweets are sweetened beyond limits these days. No wonder more and more people are falling prey to diabetes. Even big brands of ice-cream are so sweet that even normal people cannot consume it. Agreed that a sedentary life leads to various diseases, but other factors like too many overly sweet edible items are also to be blamed.
Organic stuff is good and prices are high but the quality also a drawback. Several stores nowadays selling organic items with complete packing. How to know whether they are organic or regular item. There is no way to find the originality of the item. Every pocket nowadays printed with the word organic items. I think this also like a trend to raise the product price indirectly by consuming those items which are not genuine. In some departmental stores only selling the original product.
In these dreary conditions, it seems only way out is to grow our own vegetables . Vegetables required for a small family can be grown in pots also. Even in apartments vegetables can be grown in pots.
