All Fruits not Healthy

Air is polluted. Allopathic Medicine has side effects. Milk is adulterated. Vegetables have pesticides. Fruits have insecticides sprayed on them. Pulses are adulterated. So, the safest food open to human being is only what he himself grows in his own home. So many raids by food officials but still the adulteration continues due to a highly corrupt system which does not punish and lets go of those who adulterate food with bribes. Hardly a few ever stop business. They restart the same business very soon under a different name. The proof for this is the continuation of same type of adulteration every year. It is not that it is going unrecognized. It is deliberately being sidelined.
As long as Capitalism rules this country, profits of business matters most. All politicians are businessmen and hence business interests matter first before people interests. Hence adulteration continues successfully across India. From Turmeric to Milk, nothing has been left unharmed by corrupt vendors. To some it might seem shocking to hear that brick powder is mixed with chilli powder, chalk powder is mixed with salt, chemicals are added in turmeric powder&dals, sawdust is mixed in several spices powders. Assuming them to be safe since they come from a wholesaler or known retailer, we consumer them but the businessman's core motive is to make profits.
For the past couple of years, white worms are increasingly coming up in fruits like guava, custard apples, strawberries, etc., Maybe the sweetness attracts them faster. Malachite green, a known carcinogen is used by many producers of vegetables to makethem look more green. These chemicals cause large effect on neurological system leading to several life threatening diseases. Despite FSSAI banning calcium chloride, it is still rampantly used in the fruit industry.
A simple bribe and no action taken on erring officials is enough for those carrying on the business of adulteration. It is hard for public to distinguish a normal fruit from chemically poisoned fruits. Some seasonal fruits are now available through all seasons clearly indicating that they are not normal fruits. It is hard for public to do regular checks like when testing honey, whether it settles down in the glass. The point is after the purchase of honey is done, till the next purchase, the discussion is postponed. Ghee has several adulterants including vegetable oil and vanaspati.
