i am atiq ur rehman from killi ismial quetta
Kindly modify your knowledge as per Pakistani standard
Whole Grain Pasta and Bread
Pakistanis are adding specific chemicals other than pure yeast to swell the bread so ti would enhance fats deposition instead of cleansing the digestive system.
Eggs
Pakistani poultry and dairy owners come to know that hormonal dosing increases birth rate of chicken and milk supply in their production so they blindly following this practice and that is serious harming reproductive growth and bones of kids
. Yogurt
Pakistani yogurt producers are adding by product of corn flour and some stabilizers to make thick yogurt and milk and because of this given product has lower quality of calcium and protein but higher fats content so one cant take it as per own risk or try to have cow at home for home production.
Bananas
Pakistani 4 inchy bananas are worst kind of sick production happening in our sind province where typical kind of virus is destroying the real yield and quality of this precious fruit. furthermore high prices almost 250 rs per dozen of these sick bananas are out of range of common person.I
Indian bananas arrival changed the mood of Pakistanis as it is very tasty and double in size and in two week it was just 200 rs per dozen But Pakistani traders like our ISI men couldn’t tolerated this Indian attack and conspiracy and now this fruit has shoot up price up to 500 to 600 rs per dozen.
Energy bars and drinks
these are some worst kind of diet having high rate of sugar and dopamine dosing that would ultimately damage the brain cells and regular takers would be in high risk of diabetes and extreme mood fluctuation
so simple to say that kindly use foreign chaypian as per availability of food on Pakistani soil.
