But do you know that the vegetables and fruits which are available in Delhi are neither safe nor providing us a healthy well-being.
Though the news of washing ginger with acid has enlighten awareness among people. But, they are still unaware about the fact that chemicals are being used to grow Bananas. According to health experts such bananas could be highly toxic and they may cause major health issues.
95 percent of Bananas are processed with carbide water. Around Azadpur Mandi areas like Shalimar Bagh, Jahangirpuri, Sarai Peepal Thala, Adarsh Nagar, Mangolpuri, Sultanpuri, Shakurpur and Rampura along with unauthorized colonies of Bavana and Kanjhawla are merchandising such Bananas.
According to Virendra Singh, a chemistry teacher in a Delhi government school, when the carbide is mixed with water, it releases heat which used in iron coating. Dr. R.N Kalra, CEO of the Indian Heart Foundation and well-known heart specialist in Delhi said that the fruits cooked with carbide begin to accumulate in the digestive system which may lead to chest pain, heart disease, jaundice, abdominal pain, throat irritation, ulcers and tumors. So, next time when you are buying vegetables and fruits beware of adulteration.
