FSSAI Crackdown Reveals Milk Adulteration Risks

FSSAI Crackdown Reveals Milk Adulteration Risks

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has found that many dairy products like milk, paneer, and khoya are being mixed with harmful things like detergent and urea.

This can make people very sick.

A diet expert named Deepali Sharma says we should do simple tests at home to check if our milk and dairy products are safe.

For example, you can check milk by seeing if it makes a thick layer of cream when boiled or if it turns blue when you add iodine.

For paneer, you can see if it stays dense in hot water and for khoya, you can rub it to see if it feels oily.

It's important to buy dairy products from trusted brands to stay safe.
