Q1 THA FANS ARE NOT FOR THE DAY BUT ONLY FOR THE NIGHT-A GRAND THEORY ONLY MY BRAIN CANNOT UNDERSTAND. THOSE WHO ARE USING FANS DURING THE DAYTIME LIKE ME PLEASE SWITCH IT OFF. q2 not just carrot; health line shows that peeling has several pros and cons; let's see about it; so decide later; carrot if feeled nothing will go wrong. Now views; 1 Fruit and vegetable peels can reduce hunger and help you feel fuller longer.: This is largely due to their high fiber <https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/why-is-fiber-good-for-you> content. While the exact amount of fiber varies, fresh fruits and vegetables may contain up to one-third more fiber before the outer layers are removed .Several studies show that fiber can help you feel fuller longer. Fiber may do this by physically stretching the stomach, by slowing how quickly it empties, or by influencing the speed at which fullness hormones are released in your body .In fact, research shows that the type of fiber <https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/different-types-of-fiber> found in fruits and vegetables, which is known as viscous fiber, may be especially effective at reducing appetite (.Fiber also serves as food for the friendly bacteria living in your gut. When these bacteria feed on fiber, they produce short-chain fatty acids <https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/short-chain-fatty-acids-101>, which appear to further boost feelings of fullness Moreover, several studies have observed that fiber-rich diets tend to reduce hunger and, therefore, the number of calories consumed per day <https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/how-many-calories-per-day>, potentially leading to weight loss .Therefore, unpeeled fruits and vegetables may help you reduce your hunger and even lose weight. 2 Fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants, which are beneficial plant compounds that may reduce the risk of several diseases. Put simply, the main function of antioxidants is to fight unstable molecules called free radicals. High levels of free radicals can cause oxidative stress, which can ultimately harm cells and potentially increase the risk of disease. In fact, researchers believe that antioxidants may help lower the risk of heart disease and certain types of cancers Certain antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables have also been linked to a lower risk of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease . Fruits and vegetables are naturally high in antioxidants, but according to research, the antioxidants appear to be more concentrated in the outer layer . In one study, antioxidant levels were up to 328 times higher in fruit and vegetable peels than in their pulps . Therefore, if you want to maximize your intake of antioxidants from fruit and vegetables, you should eat them unpeeled. 3 Pesticides are commonly used to reduce crop damage and increase yield. Contrary to popular belief, pesticides can be found on both organically and conventionally grown fruits and vegetables. Although some pesticides enter fruit and vegetable flesh, many remain confined in the outer peel. Washing is a good way to get rid of pesticide residues that are loosely attached to the peel’s surface. However, peeling is the best way to remove pesticides that have seeped into fruit and vegetable skin. For example, a recent review reports that around 41% of pesticide residues found on fruits was removed by washing with water, while up to twice as much was removed through peeling . For many people concerned about their overall exposure to pesticides <https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/pesticides-and-health>, this may be good enough reason to eat only the flesh of all fruits and vegetables. Those particularly worried about their pesticide intake may want to check out the EWG’s report <https://www.ewg.org/foodnews/summary.php>, which ranks pesticide contamination levels in 48 popular fruits and vegetables in America. Nevertheless, the risk of consuming slightly more pesticides may not necessarily outweigh the benefit of the greater amount of nutrients in the skins. The amount of pesticides allowed on fresh foods is tightly regulated. Pesticide levels exceed the allowed upper limits in less than 4% of cases, and even when they do, research shows this rarely results in harm to humans . Therefore, while removing the skin of vegetables may get rid of a bit more pesticides than washing does, the difference is likely too small to worry about. SO DECIDE. Q4 How to avoid duties and taxes?; as per manual bringing permitted goods; not "nowadays don't care'; or evade taxes and if caught take the riders. Q8 How everyone delivering a baby/ how every one become parent/; how the relations and inter personal and intra personal relationship going on? have all those changed?. Q10 swadeshi is certainly better; I write often that none outside wear your saree or dhoti or eat dosa after leaving your country. Then why would yo beg and buy others' products?. Swadeshi when grows , internal productions will change. Swadeshi scriptures are to be followed, dharma style would vary. Gandhi did it, then why not some low level citizens?. We are hypocrites.
