Life is very busy these days. We tend to ignore our health due to our busy schedule. We ignore the early symptoms and a little discomfort in our body that might be diagnosed as a major health disorder at a later stage. The word ‘purity’ has lost somewhere in the crowd and practically nothing is in its purest form nowadays. The water we drink, the food we eat or air we breathe, all are polluted in some way or the other. Although, we cannot stop the same but can definitely take some precautions to keep us safe from the harmful effects of these impurities present around us.
