Old is GOLD !!!

I recently read an article in the newspaper covering health issues. The whole discussion was on the lipids in our body. Ever heard of LDL and HDL? Well they are carry cholesterol inside our body. The LDL carries and deposits cholesterol in inner parts of arteries and the other fellow HDL carries those deposits to liver for recycling and burn down. Nowadays, clinics are flooded with patients with a lot of heart related complaints, BP Attacks and other life jeopardizing ailments. People blame it on the lifestyle they choose; Eating synthetically prepared food, preferring foods that are stored for months together on the grocery shelves, living a sedated lifestyle. Humans cannot live without oxygen. Nowadays some people cannot live without Air conditioners! Fans seem to blow their life away! Duhhh... Well, if people live life with so many tantrums then lifestyle diseases are going to pop up in the society. People hardly get the fact that the way they choose to live affects their mental and physical health. So to counter this problem doctors prescribe drugs that decrease the LDL or the bad cholesterol. Does this solve the root of the problem? NO, a big NO. Unless there is some increase in the metabolic activities in the body, the HDL will not rise! If you reduce the LDL only the cholesterol depositors will decrease, but what about the HDL that carries the fats to bio-furnace? Now technology seems to have an answer to this situation. Gold Nano-particles are being invented that will be covered in all sorts of fat molecules covered with proteins. This robotic intruder in our body will act like HDL. The non toxic gold Nano particles are also water soluble. So the near future holds a key in nanometers to reduce the cholesterol. But isn’t this a roundabout way of solving a problem. People first have wrong kind of food at wrong hours of the day and in wrong amounts and end up on clinical bed. They are then diagnosed with hearth problem and are given some pills which they carry wherever they go. Instead, an hour of exercise and proper diet can not only do wonders but also can save a lot in medical bills. “Mysterious are the ways of urbanites” O.A.K.
