Thread: Things to avoid - Be careful

I got the following in an email from a team of medical social workers and wanted to share!!

A list of things we should avoid

1) Mobile

Don't put your mobile closer to your ears until the
recipient answers, Because directly after dialing, the mobile phone would use it's maximum signaling power,
which is: 2watts = 33dbi. Please Be Careful. Please use left ear while using cell (mobile), because if you use the right one it may affect brain directly. This is a true fact from Apollo medical team.

2) APPY FIZZ

Do not drink APPY FIZZ . It contains cancer causing
agent.

3) Mentos

Don't eat Mentos before or after drinking Coke or
Pepsi coz the person will die immediately as the mixture
becomes cyanide. Please fwd to whom u care


4) Kurkure

Don't eat kurkure because it contains high amount of
plastic if U don't Believe burn kurkure n u can see
plastic melting. Please forward to all!!!!!!!!! !! News
report from Times of India


5) Avoid these tablets as they are very dangerous

* D cold
* Vicks action- 500
* Actified
* Coldarin
* Co some
* Nice
* Nimulid
* Cetrizet-D
They contain Phenyl- Propanol -Amide PPA.Which Causes strokes, and these tablets are banned in U.S.



6) Cotton Ear Buds

Cotton Ear Buds... (Must read it) Please do not show sympathy to people selling buds on roadside or at Signals..... Just wanted to warn you people not to buy those packs of ear buds you get at the roadside. It's made from cotton that has already been used in hospitals. They take all the dirty, blood and pus filled cotton, wash it, bleach it and use it to make ear buds. So, unless you want to become the first person in the world to get Herpes Zoster Oticus (a viral infection of the inner, middle, and external ear) of the ear and that too from a cotton bud, DON'T BUY THEM!

Repost. Actually posted as a joke. Most of them are not true.

Yes, most of them are not true.
