Cholesterol - bad word

 If you want to learn a new language, the easiest way to create an interest, a curiosity, and an impulse to start is a bad word, " Nai, pei, panni, pisasu" A bad start to a great One.


In that aspect, the way to kick start into the subject of nutrition, could be a bad word, and at present the most notorious is cholesterol.

Literally it means a steroid like fatty material found in the gall bladder, where it was first discovered.

It has achieved such notoriety, now everyone from the janitor to the upper most cadre in every field, thinks, and abhors it as an untouchable, delicacy found in food.

It has found itself labelled as the microscopic criminal in the cardiovascular system of medicine, earning money beyond imagination to keep it surfacing to traceable level, in the investigation markers.

It is not enough to prove it innocent, (many already have, but a scapegoat needs to be found, to keep the money flowing) someone or something else which many can accept all across the world, as the real culprit, till then cholesterol is the victim, and the bad word.

P. S.
Nai, pei, panni, pisasu, we found are only species names, not a bad word, many others are only anatomical and embarrassing acts, never anything bad,  it takes time to accept and correct.... So with cholesterol.
