I remember my mother had once told me that during her
childhood, there were limited powders, namely bournvita, farex and cocoa powder
to add taste to milk. But today, the variety of these products has rapidly increased.
There are different companies launching different powders (claiming that milk
becomes a health drink after adding the powder) in different flavours.
Agreed that competition has increased but that doesn’t mean
one should boast about their products in a fake manner. Firstly, they show that
children hate eating homemade foods, vegetables, etc. I mean, when you show
this, even if children who eat homemade food because they love it, they will
stop eating it. These people know the mindset of children very well. They know
when, where and how to attack!!
Then they also show that by buying this particular product,
children will gain more iron, they will grow in height, and they will get
proper nourishment!! And they even show this by depicting “a research conducted
which showed…”
If the results of the research these people portray are
real, then why is it not printed or promoted by newspaper or news channel. Every
time there’s a new research, we come to know it through the media. But I have
never seen a single newspaper or news on a news channel with “children actually
grow with this product” and I don’t think others might have seen as well. In fact,
there are news saying “prove it in actuality before you portray it.”
Some companies have even launched products especially for
women. They claim that eating that product once or twice a day will help them
in their weight loss program. And the
list just goes on…
What we don’t realize that milk or homemade food itself is a
very good source of proper nourishment. In actuality, these products are not creating
any kind of revolution. Instead, they are giving false hopes in a very
confident manner which they actually shouldn’t.
No wonder, these companies are given a warning because of
their wrong methods and have been ordered to prove the actuality of what is
being depicted or else, the product will be banned.
