Swasth Bharat…..Safal Bharat.

Healthy Generation ensures a Healthier Nation.
If children are conceived and brought up in a healthy environment and receive proper guidelines for diet and lifestyle at an early age, the society will be more healthy and immune.

To make India immune we need to focus on its 2 pillars
1. Rural India
2. Urban India

Rural India
Around 70% of total population of India still reside in the rural regions.
To make India healthier, stronger and more immune it’s very important to ensure a healthy rural generation. Despite several growth oriented policies adopted by the government , the widening  economic, regional and gender disparities are posing challenges for the health sector. About 75% of the health infrastructure, medical man power and other health resources are been concentrated in urban India where only 30% of the population lives.

Let’s discuss about the problems and obstacles which hinders the growth and development in rural areas.

Problems Faced -:

1. Limited Scope of Government Policies
     The scope of the health policies incorporated by the government is restricted.
    They are implemented at the macro levels (National, state and district) but not at the
     micro (Regional and Remote areas) levels. Also only 10% of the total health budget is allocated to 
     the rural sector.
2. Dreadful diseases
   Contagious, infectious and water borne diseases dominate the morbidity pattern in the rural    
    areas.
3. Poor Living Conditions
    Many children are still living in abysmal living conditions.
4. Unsafe Water
    Contaminated and unsafe water for drinking purposes.

     

                            

5. Malnutrition
    Malnutrition is one of the most dominate health related problem in rural India.
    Millions of children do not get their 2 days meal. More than 85% of the rural children are  
    undernourished.

                            

6.  Improper Sanitary Facilities
     Degraded and Unsanitary environments which are the major cause of infectious diseases.
7.  Early Marriage & Illiteracy
     Around 75% of the women had their pregnancy below 18 years which is a major reason for 
     disabled and underdeveloped babies.
8.  Unavailability of Medical Resources
     Inadequate experienced medical man power allocated to the rural areas.

Solutions -:

1. Government Policies and programs available to all
     Proper implementation of all the health policies especially the vaccination programmes. Upmost 
     care to be taken that it reaches it to the grass root levels.
2.  2 times meal a day
     Government should make sure that no child dies of malnutrition or under nutrition.
     It should make sure that every family gets at least 2 times meal.
3.  Safe Drinking water
     Plans to provide safe and clean water to reduce the widespread waterborne and other infectious 
     diseases.
4.  Hygienic living and sanitation facility
      Improved sanitation including waste treatment to prevent the spread of contagious diseases.
5.  Availability of Medical resources
      Greater availability of health workers which include nurses and doctors.
6. Primary education to all
     The girl child should be educated so that when it is the time to start a family she can take good
      care of her child and play a big role in reaching the target of an immune India.
7.  Use of Ayurvedic products
     Providing Ayurvedic products like Chyawanprash to the children to enhance their immune
      system. Dabur Chyawanprash the most trusted of all brands.

                        

Urban India

In urban India though we have all important health facilities available then too health problems and poor immune system of children is one of the major problems.

Let’s discuss about the problems and obstacles which hinders the growth and development in urban areas.

Problems Faced -:

1. Poverty
    Poverty is one of the major obstacle which impedes the goal of an Immune urban India. Inflation is
     high in cities and poor people are not able to feed and take proper care of their children because
     of it. Many children suffer from malnutrition.
2.  Unhygienic Slum Areas
     In slum areas still the living conditions are poor and children are at constant threat of being
     inflicted by various infectious diseases. 

                                  

3.  Widespread Corruption
     There are many policies started by the government for improving the health system in urban India
    but major chunk of the funds is not put into implementation because of the widespread
    corruption.
4.  Breastfeeding unpopularity
    Breastfeeding which is very important for a baby’s growth has been sidelined by many working
    women because of lack of time or other reasons.
5.  Junk Food Addiction
     People have become addicted to junk food and their children also follow their path.
    Popularity of junk food as has increased manifold due to which
    children are not able to get a nutritious diet and hence are vulnerable to different
    diseases. Weak eye sight and hairfall at an early age are other side effects of having excess of junk
    food.

                                   

6.  Inadequate Sleep
     Lack of sleep is another reason for weak immune system. Today children are addicted to video
     game and movies and are busy with them even late night losing on their precious sleeping time.
7.  Obesity
     Obesity is a major problem with urban children. Sitting and eating has made them fat and prone
     to many diseases at an early age.

Solutions -:

1. Proper implementation of government policies
     The first and main step should be taken by government to scrutinize the process of funds
      allocation and make sure that the right amount is put into implementation.
2.  Improved Slum conditions
    Slum areas should have proper sanitation, waste disposal and living conditions.
3.  Free Medication
    Free medication for poor children who are below the poverty line.
4. Breastfeeding Awareness
    Breastfeeding should be encouraged as it is very important for the proper growth and
    development of a baby.

                          

5. Balanced Diet
    Eating healthy food full of vitamins and other nutrients is the first and most important step in
    building a strong immune system. The importance of balanced diet taken at right time should be
    taught to the children.
6.  Adequate Sleep
     Early to wake, Early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise, a well said proverb which is so
     true. Every child should be encouraged to follow it.
7.  Physical Exercise
     Our body needs some sort of physical exercise to keep it fit. Regular exercising is one of the best
     things you can do to improve your immune system. 

                                        

8. Use of Ayurvedic products
    Providing Chyawanprash to the children to enhance their immune system.
    Dabur Chyawanprash the most trusted of all brands.

                                         

Common Problems Faced -:

1. Uncontrolled Population
     Increasing population is one of the biggest problem faced by India,
     because of which government is not able to implement its policies to the
     fullest. Scarcity of resources makes it really difficult for many Indians to
      lead a healthy and happy life.

2. Unemployment
     Unemployment is another major problem which is faced by developing
     nation like India. People are not able to feed their family a 2 times meal
     also because of which their children suffer from malnutrition and other
      health issues.
    

IMMUNE INDIA is not a dream made in air. It can become a reality is all of us
take a pledge to play our part with complete sincerity and diligence.

Swasth Bharat…..Safal Bharat.

"Traditional Knowledge, Natural Growth"...A Keen Insight

The most wonderful feeling in this world is to become a parent.
When the baby is born it feels like you have won a jackpot.  Various emotions pour in at the same time. Those small eyes staring at you, puppy like cute face, innocent giggle makes you feel out this world. But at the same time you have the most important responsibility on your shoulder which is to take utmost care of the newborn till he/she transits into a grown up kid.
If children are conceived and brought up in a healthy environment and receive proper guidelines for diet and lifestyle at an early age, the society will be more healthy and peaceful.

                        

General Childhood Problems

A healthy child who is mentally and physically developed is the need of the society.

Cough, Asthma, Tonsillitis, Skin diseases, Fever, Diarrhoea, Indigestion, Lack of Appetite, malnutrition, Weak muscles and bones, dwarfness and emotional disorders are the common ones.
But most of them fail to live to the expectations.
A child has weak immunity and its body is very delicate and vulnerable so choosing the right product for their baby is the most important responsibility of parents.

Nutrients required by baby for optimal growth

      Calcium -: It plays an important role in bone and tooth development and blood clotting.

      Iron -: It helps in formation of healthy blood cells and also is part of Hemoglobin.

 Proteins-: It develops, maintains and repairs new tissues throughout the body, including muscles.

Essential Products for internal use required in the early growth and development of babies

Childcare in Ayurveda begins a long time before the child is actually born.
Kaumarbhratya' , one of the eight branches of Ayurveda, is dedicated to this subject. The aim of Ayurveda is not only to heal, but also to maintain health. Kaumarabhratya plays an important role in achieving this aim.

                           

Some tonics that are good for child’s health include
1. Gold Svarna bhasma with paste of brahmi  and sankhapuspi , given with ghee and honey. This is good for general immunity and intelligence and given mainly to newly born children.
2. The powder of Vaca , jatamansi , apamarg , satavari , sariva , brahmi , pippali , haridra , kustha and saindhava with honey. This is good for general infections of chest, cold, cough, and asthma.
3. Ghee with paste of Ashwagandha and milk. It’s very nutritious and strengthening.
4. Herbs in the form of fresh juice or powder mixed with honey or milk is very healthy.
5. Gripe water which guards the baby against common stomach problems like indigestion and acidity.

Apart from above tonics there are various ayurvedic ingredients that should be included in a baby product like
Anjeer -: It’s good for infant’s liver. Act as cooling and soothing agent for the stomach.
Draksha/Kishmish -: Contains essential minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron in assailable form.
Vach -: Prevents loss of appetite. Useful in dyspepsia & choleric diarrhea.
Ajwain -: Prevents indigestion, colic dyspepsia & diarrhea.
Amaltas -: Acts as a laxative especially for habitual constipation

Essential Products for external use required in the early growth and development of babies.
Baby Oil

Good quality baby oil is very essential to keep the baby skin soft and infection free.
The diaper area needs help because of rashes and acids in the urine and stool. Baby oil forms a protective coating on the skin, healing rashes and blocking the harsh body fluids from creating harm to the skin. It blocks common skin pathogens from starting infection.
Proper oil massage increases the immunity and vitality of a child.
Different  types of oils available are

A.      Sesame Seed Oil

B.      Organic Almond Oil

C.      Olive Oil

Skin protection & Healing Cream
Skin is the most sensitive part of a baby’s body. Infections and rashes are very common at this tender age so a good skin cream is very important. It protects the skin from ill effects of pollution, UV radiation, heat, wind and dryness.

How to choose the right product for your baby
1. Choose a product that is certified.
2. Read labels of all lotions, oils and creams. Avoid the products which have unfamiliar

         chemicals mentioned on it.
 3. Avoid genetically modified foods and chemical additives.

Galactica...a land unexplored !!!

“Gentleman I have some very important news to share with you, Scientist CK Jain was addressing the top defense officials of India.

CK Jain was the chief Astronaut at ISRO and was the head of the team which was responsible to find existence of life across different parts of universe. People used to call him Sir CK Jain.

We have been observing planet Galactica from last 1 month and have found some surprising facts about it.
First some general information first-:
It’s the largest planet of the Alpha Centurai System which is 1 light year from earth.       
 Has half of earth’s diameter and 60% of mass. The red orange surface of the Galactican surface is caused by iron oxide. Its atmosphere is quite similar to that of the earth.

Now coming to the surprising facts-:
There are 2 huge castles at the extreme ends of the planet which can be seen through high intensity telescopes.
Sudden disturbances and big ripples are observed in the pleasant water surface of the huge sea.
Rapid movement of generally stagnant trees.
Sometimes big clouds of dust can be seen as if there is a Mahabharat between 2 huge armies.
All this activities give an impression of existence of life.

So we have decided to send a team of 10 people to Galactica who will find out what exactly exists there, are those creatures like us or some invisible forces. We have to make sure that earth is in no danger because of it.
I have taken permission from President for the same. There will be 3 scientists and 7 highly specialized officers from defense department for the mission. I will call it as “Exploratica”.

Tomorrow we are having a meeting with President Mr. AK Azad as he wants to meet the team going for this mission. I hope you have sufficient time to select your best 7. See you tomorrow in the morning than”, saying so Sir CK Jain made a move.

I, Captain Ankit Jain and my team was busy practicing for our next mission when Brigadier CP Marshall walked in.
Officers, your attention please because what I am about to say is going to change your life.
Ankit, you and your team is selected for a mission no one has ever imagined.

We are sending you guys to Galactica which is the biggest planet of our nearest star.
Scientists at ISRO have indentified some unusual activities there. You guys have to explore the territory and find out the reason for that. We will be providing you with the best of ammunition and gadgets which will help you face any type of obstacle.

Tomorrow President wants to have a meeting with the complete team which includes you guys and 3 scientists from ISRO, a total of 10 people. All the very best.

President welcomed us to his office and discussed about the date of journey, what are the expectations from this mission and what will be our game plan.

A special space craft was created which could travel at the rate of 1/3 of the light’s speed.
Laser guns, Robotic suits and 2 vehicles named Storme which were equipped with highly advanced weaponries were at our disposal.

Finally the D day came when the team was going to commence for their mission Exploratica.
5..4..3..2 ….and 1 and the space craft took off.

Video Source : Misqumockas's channel

After 3 years of journey it was time to pull up the socks as we were about to face something unseen and unusual which could be beyond our imagination.

We landed on a surface which looked quite mysterious, primal and terrifying.
Quickly we checked on the device for what existed in the 200 miles radius.
Around 100 miles in the north there were huge mountains, some even volcanic in nature.
South had huge trees, some even 100 m tall and orange in color. They looked like soldiers guarding a frontier.
To the east, some 50 miles away was the endless sea which had red water same as that of the red sea.
And to the west lay an endless plain surface.
To add to the peculiarity there stood a white tree, 20 miles away, isolated from everything and had a small hole at its bottom.

“I think we should start from that tree, probably it seems to be unique and sacred. What do you say guys”, I inquired.

Scientist took out a machine which scanned the tree for traces of life and fortunately we could see a structure about 3 feet inside it.
“Load your laser guns and get on to the Storme guys, we are moving in that tree”, I affirmed.

The surface was a bit rocky too but our Storme was build in a way that it could travel on sandy , rocky and even water surface.
As we got closer to the hole, a beam of light illuminated and the 3 feet tall structure came in front of us.

It appeared like the character Yoda from Star wars movie. Face like a dog with long ears.

“So you are from earth”, he enquired.

We were shocked to see him speaking in English.

As a captain I took the lead and answered him.

“Yes we are from earth. Our scientist have seen some unusual activities on this planet and sensed existence of life. So we have come here to check out what is happening. I am Ankit the captain of this team. Sriram, Stephen and Renu are the Astrologists.
Lieutenant Karan, Sud , Tapo and Subedar  Rafaa, Fatima and Deepti are the part of Indian army.
Who are you and how do you know that we are from earth”, I enquired.

“I am Padro , the oldest person of this galaxy.  I am alive from last 50,00,00 years.
Yes I saw you people entering the planet and my sphere of universe alerted me of the same.
Don’t worry I won’t hurt you people. Welcome to Galactica”, he said politely.

“Thanks a lot Padro. But how do you speak our language? Also this land looks so peculiar and mysterious. Can you tell us about other living beings of this planet? Does everyone look like you? And what is this sphere of universe”, I asked anxiously.

You can consider me as a messenger of God. There is a Padro in each galaxy. Each Padro can communicate with all forms of living beings of that galaxy. Also we have a sphere of universe through which we can observe everything happening on any planet throughout universe and can contact with other Padros. Normally we live on the planet where there is peace and natural beauty all around. But last 2-3 years has been tough after Nectrons invaded this planet. They have ravaged the natural beauty and have brought dangerous creatures with them. Their main motive is to abduct “Ambers”, the power of life. Zepers who are the native of Galactica are trying their hard to protect them from Nectrons.

Let me show you all this on the sphere of universe.

                                      

There had been 2 huge battles between Nectrons army and Zepers.
Though Zepers had managed to win them both but the loss of lives and resources was huge.
The only point that has worked in Zepers way is the hostility between the 3 species of beast, Nectrons control.  They are not able to command all 3 of them to fight together against Zepers.
Once they expertise in that art, demolition of Zepers is inevitable.

“Is there a way to defeat Nectrons and its forces”, I asked anxiously.

“Yes there is but it’s damn risky and nearly impossible for any Zeper. The head of all Padros, “The
Archedros” is the one who has the power to transfer any living being to any place in this universe.
The only way to save this planet is to convince him to throw Nectrons out of here.
You can see those mountains in the north; the highest one with a volcanic head is where he lives.

“Well I think Archedros help won’t be necessary. We have the latest ammunition and gadgets and it can easily kill those bloody creatures. Please take us to the palace of Zepers, we will help them in the next and probably final battle”, I said enthusiastically with a pinch of over confidence.

Zepers palace which looked more like a colony was red in color and made up of iron, the only metal found on the planet.
It was on the top of a mountain surrounded by trees and shrubs.
Apart from Capher there were different types of Floras and Faunas found in the proximity.

Some flowers were as big as adult tortoises while other as small as a humming bee.
Scent of few was mesmerizing while some could even make a person faint because they smelled like a decaying body.

Among the animals there were mainly herbivorous species which included
Cadors                       

   

                 

 Karons

Monkos

The dangerous ones included

Dronosorous

Monosorous

As we entered the palace with Padro , everyone 

stood like a statue, watching us with their eyes popped out. Their heads looked like the bottom of a cricket bat.

Padro introduced us in a language which was mix of Chinese and Sanskrit..:P
He also told that we have come to help them fight against the Nectrons.

A smile though not very pleasing to see appeared on the face of every Zeper.
They invited us to explore their palace and enjoy the hospitality.
As we were examining the place there was a sudden uproar. Chirping of birds, roaring and grunting of animals can be heard clearly and loudly. 

Something was wrong, damn wrong. One of the Zeper came running to Padro and explained him the situation.

“Guys we are been attacked and this time the army of Nectrons appears to be huge. I am afraid to say that the existence of Zepers looks in danger.

“We will face it together and wipe those bloody creatures from this planet”, I assured Padro.

Preparations of war had started.
Thousands of Caphers made their way out of a place which looked like a sanctuary.
The experienced members of the troop took front positions on the strongest of the Caphers.
Their big and pointed Spears were held high in the air ready to pierce through the body of those bloody monsters.
We were also ready with our strategy. 5 of us got into the robotic suits which were around 20 feet tall equipped with the latest technology.  I along with the scientists got into one vehicle while Deepti took the other one.

The battlefield was all set for the war of the century. It was 5 am and the Alpha Centurai was about to rise.  We positioned ourselves at the same place where we had landed. There were large clouds of dust formed at a distance of 10 miles which meant that our enemy was now quite close.

As the cloud closed in our heartbeats started increasing.
The first sight of Nectrons army was horrifying.
Huge Megacondas , 8 legged giant spiders and frightening Scorpions with their tail raised were approaching towards us in hundreds of number.

“I can’t believe my eyes, never expected the 3 species to come together like this. Demolition of Zepers is now inevitable”, Padro said shivering with fear.

Attack and kill those bastards was what I shouted on top of my voice.

Though Zepers were unaware of my language but they very well knew what I meant.

A fierce battle took place on the sands of Galactica. Rocket’s and mini missiles blew the Giants into small pieces of flesh. Unfortunately 3 Megacondas took Tapo by surprise and knocked his robot down. A strong blow from the tail of Scorpion broke the main chip and disabled its functioning. As Tapo tried to get out one of the Pokilo pounced on him and dug its fang deep into his body.

“Tapo”, I screamed.

Suddenly an invisible force got into me and I single handedly started to butcher those bloody creatures using the laser beams and blew the hell out of them with the E-bombs.

Finally after 15 minutes of fireworks the show got over. Bodies of giants monsters and hundreds of Zepers lay still on the sands of Galactica.

“We won it”, I shouted with joy, but could find none to raise the toast with me.

Everyone was staring right in front with horror easily visible in their eyes. As I turned back to see what was coming I got a heart attack.

Thousands of bigger and deadlier creatures were approaching us, this time not alone but with their masters, Nectrons.

“We will fight till our last breadth, remember your god and be ready to slaughter those bastards”, I shouted loudly.

But somewhere down the heart I knew it was all over. Our ammunition was about to finish and only half of Zepers army was left. If someone could save us then it was only god.

Those Mammoths were now just a few meters away from us.
A large Palaeophonus with a tail as big as a bus was about to strike the final blow on me when suddenly everything disappeared in split of seconds.

No one could believe on what just happened. Thousands of monsters suddenly got disappeared in the thin air. I was awestruck and it took me some time to get back to senses. As the air got clearer I could see a Storme few kilometers away.  It stopped in front of us and Deepti stepped out with a person who looked quite similar to Padro.

“Archedros”, Padro shouted in delight.

Deepti told us how she had an institution that something unfortunate was going to happen today and hence felt an urgent need to find Archedros and tell him everything.
It was hell difficult for her to get to him but once she reached the place where he lived it was like eternal divine. To her surprise he agreed to save the planet at once, the reason was pretty simple.
If people from some extraterritorial planet are fighting hard to save Galactica, who am I not to help them.

It was time to celebrate as Zepers got their planet back.
They thanked us for everything and invited us to join the celebration.
But we couldn’t accept the gesture because though we won the battle but on the other
hand we also lost one of our colleague, our friend, Tapo.

Padro insisted to take one of the Ambers as a gift from the people of Galactica.
This time we couldn't say no as it was for the welfare of mankind.

Finally we bid adieu and took off for earth.

Fragrances, connecting us with different memories of past..

Nose is the most sensitive part of our body. Just a smell of tadka can make us sneeze for minutes.
We come across hundreds of smell every day, some pleasant and some terrible.
But there are some fragrances which bring the memory of long lost moment crashing back to the forefront of our minds.

It’s really amazing how simple airborne molecules can trigger such vivid recollections.

While I was cleaning by bike some petrol spilled out of the tank.
The smell of petrol made me remember those college days when I used to get the tank of my bike full and hit the highways without any destination in mind. Also I just love the scent of petrol. It is so mesmerizing. There were times when I used to visit petrol pump thrice in a week. But with the rates shooting up like a rocket from 50 to 70, my visit has just reduced to once a week..:(

My neighbour had a whitewash few days back. The smell of the paint brought me back to the memory lane when my new home was under construction and I was so damn excited to choose the colours for my room.

We got our pavement cemented recently. The smell of cement triggers those memories when I and Dad used to stand for hours in the hot sun visualizing every minute details of our dream home which was under construction.

During monsoon the aroma of wet soil, very fresh and earthy brings back those childhood days when I and my friends used to eagerly wait for the first drops of rain. The damp grass and slosh of puddles under our feet used to make us dance and enjoy like crazy.

It also plays with the heartbeat as the romantic memories start to pour in. Those long walks with that someone special, holding hands in hand and clouds playing the cupid is just amazing.

When someone gets hurt and dad who is a doctor applies Betadine on it, the smell of the tube takes me to those days when I used to fall from the cycle once every fortnight and get bruises all over my body. I used to race with cars and bikes but unfortunately the chain of my cycle was a Bevda Aashiq , off the track every time with no control of its own.

Coming to the food items, the smell of Khicadi (Daal-rice one) reminds me of those time when I was new to cooking and it was the first thing I added to “What all I can cook list’’..:)

The smell of Gajar ka Halwa , Badam Halwa , bhutte ka kees..etc etc.. rewinds life to that phase of childhood when I and my brother used to fight till the last bite of the dish was left.

Some smells are frightening and you need to be very cautious while dealing with them.
One such smell is of Leaking Gas. An incident from my past comes flashing by whenever my nose senses a gas leakage. There was an old lady aged around 60 who used to live in our colony with her family. Once when her son and daughter in law went to a trip to Thailand she was alone at home. Unfortunately the knob of cylinder was left open for the whole night. In morning when she got up to 

make her morning tea, there was a blast and she was 90% burnt. The lady died after 3 days.

Some smells bring back the most memorable moments of your life, one of which is the smell of Mehandi. Whenever someone in my family or friends apply mehandi , it reminds me of my brother’s marriage when for the first time in my life mehandi was applied on my hands. Those funny and crazy moments which all the family members shared during the mehandi session comes flashing in front of me.

There are lot and lots of fragrances and smells; some bring in good memories while some bad ones.
But whenever there is a pungent smell like leaking pipelines, smelly toilets or cushions of car seat smelling because of moisture at the time of rains, only one thing strikes my mind and i.e. the most trusted brand of air fresheners “AmbiPur”.

Ambipur car freshener, Ambipur air effects and Ambipur set and refresh are the best in the business.

Review of Minto-Ultramintz by ITC

A fresh mouth is as important as a fresh mind. Mints are best suited to take care of the
first thing. They not only refresh your mouth but also your body and give a long lasting
cool effect. I just love mints. Be it the mint with a hole, POLO or Mentos, dimag ki batti jala de, I always carry them with me.

When Blogadda came up with review of “Minto Ultramintz by ITC “ under their  product review program I was damn excited and at the very moment applied for it.

For the next few days I always checked my Gmail for a mail from Blogadda stating that I was selected to review the mint and man I didn’t had to wait much longer.
The mail had everything which a person who has got selected was required to do. 

I quickly acknowledged their mail with details so that I can get the mints as soon as possible.

The product was shipped within 5-6 days. As I opened the package there were 2 black colour boxes, each containing 60 ultra-cool sugar free Minto Ultramintz.

Wow what a packing, it seemed like ITC has not sent me a mint box but instead a diamond ring.
Everyone at my office was like, this is just amazing, what an awesome stuff..
The expectations now were quite high. Finally it was time to taste the mint and feel the refreshment
factor it had. The first mint in my mouth and seriously I was not at all disappointed. I was looking was a strong mint with a fast cooling effect and it gave me exactly that. All of my teammates were trying to grab as many mints as they can. One of them even asked me for a box so that he can gift it to his GF.

It’s also easy to carry it anywhere and everywhere.
I also liked the concept of having 60 mints in a single box.
Lot of stuff to keep oneself cool and refreshing.
Rating: 8/10.

Mint

1.       It’s a strong mint which makes it different from other competitors.

2.       It has a refreshing and cool effect which lasts long.

3.       Sugar free tag adds to the value.

4.       The taste of mint is also good.

5.       The size and shape of the mint has been thought upon quite

prudently which makes 60 mints adjust easily in a box.

Rating: 8/10.
