Nowadays,forwarding and recieving messages became a part of our existence,and some messages fall into our inbox with a tag-"send to your friends if you really care",the tone of the note is in such a manner,that if we do not send,our friends will fall ill immediately,care flows only if there is a free message service in the network :D,and the context of the message is that if we handle a particular thing,it will cause cancer.
There are variety of cautions-"dont scratch the mobile top-up card,it will cause cancer", "dont drink rose milk(!),the essence causes cancer, "dont drink appy fizz,it contains cancer causing agent", "dont eat hybrid tomato,it causes cancer"............the list is unending,soon they may say "dont eat food,it may cause cancer",and in some special occasions brain tumor is also given a place.
The question is who is initiating such messages,and sometimes mails,and what is the proof?
It may or may not be true,but people are using those stuff for decades and are in fine condition,some of them might have acquired the above mentioned diseases,but only the cells in their bodies knows the origin of the disease.
People get bewildered by such cautions and anyway it cannot be ignored,and as days pass by ,it became a regular activity to avoid such agents employed by Mr.cancer.
And health tips reaching our inbox need a special mention,i cannot forget an instance when my mobile beeped to announce that-"German scientists have discovered that people who watch persons of opposite gender for 10 mins/day,remain healthy forever(?!)";)
and sometimes they say-"if you drink 8 glasses of water a day,no disease will approach you",i wonder if one drinks 8 glasses of water and keep gulping rose milk,will cancer come or not?
some people send eating banana makes you as thin as a stick...and some tell banana causes obesity.
which one to believe?
and finally-"too much of thinking is not good for health",
so - "its all in the game"
