How to live a chai kahlua?
Chai kahlia, a traditional Indian chai made from leaves, has long been popular in Kerala.
But it has recently become a cause celebre among some Muslims in Kerala who say that the leafy greens, often associated with the country’s Hindu god Shiva, contain an unhealthy substance that can cause liver damage.
Kerala’s Health Ministry is seeking to counter this claim by issuing warnings about the poisonous leafy green tea.
The leafy Greens in Kerala have been blamed for increasing the incidence of liver disease and cirrhosis in Muslim communities in the state, said Dr Abhishek Jha, a member of Kerala’s health advisory council.
He said a survey conducted in 2014 by the health ministry revealed that nearly a third of Muslims in the country consumed at least one cup of chai a day, compared to only a third in Kerala where tea is consumed as a condiment.
He blamed the increase in consumption on a recent spike in consumption of the leaf by Muslims in urban areas.
“This is also due to the increasing popularity of chia seeds and kaffir lime.
It is the reason why there has been a jump in consumption in Muslim households,” Dr Jha said.
In the state capital, Ernakulam, a majority of people are drinking green chai instead of traditional Indian teas.
“We are very worried.
The leafy Green is very harmful.
The liver damage and the liver disease can be fatal,” said an unidentified man in a coffee shop in the Ernakula area.”
A lot of people drink it as a drink.
It can be dangerous,” said another man.
“You need to be careful because if you are drinking this leafy tea, it could cause a heart attack,” said a woman.
“It can be poisonous, too,” said her husband.
Dr Jha has been researching the health hazards associated with chai leaves since 2008.
“Chai is made from roots of the tea plant and these roots contain poisonous compounds.
It also contains calcium and iron which is poisonous,” he said.
“Many of these compounds are present in the leaf,” he added.
“If you drink this tea, you could potentially have a heart or kidney problem,” he warned.
What we know so far about Google’s self-driving cars
Updated July 25, 2018 12:18:23Google is working on its own self-drive car and is not just a partner in the development, the tech giant announced Tuesday.
The company is partnering with BMW to bring its driverless technology to market, and is also developing its own versions of the vehicles for its own cars, Google said in a blog post.
It said it is partnering to develop a self-parking system for BMW’s vehicles that will be able to safely travel from Point A to Point B with the help of its driver assist systems.
Google is expected to reveal more details about its self-driven car technology at its annual I/O conference later this month.
The tech giant said the cars are “very capable” and that it is working with other automakers to develop “the ultimate vehicle.”
The announcement comes amid concerns about the safety of autonomous vehicles and public backlash over the deaths of two pedestrians who were struck by a Google self-balancing bike during a test drive in February.
The accident prompted Google to recall its selfdriving cars and a major recall of some of its self tolling vehicles.
