Hi Catherine,
Very Very Veryyyy important research..
Do you know many people in small towns still use 'kohl' for 'NEWLY
BORN BABIES' :(
Even if the doctors advice them not to use kohl but still they have
some very old and wrong beliefs that using of kohl prevents the
child from evil eye !!!!!!!
This is so unfortunate..
Some people know to change with times but even some educated people
do not want to change their traditional beleifs..they don't see any
danger to go with their wrong and foolish beliefs:( !!!!!!!!!!!!
The doctors often say, "Anemia is very common in Indian/South Asian
Women ,
and I guess using of kohl could be the reason...
My family, myself hardly used kohl but I will definitely forward it
to my other indian friends..
Thanks catherine..
