Dr. Imran Ansari (MBBS)
AAGha Khan Hospital N University.
HOAX OR FACT:

Mixture of hoax and facts.
ANALYSIS:

The message comes as a warning not to use 'Party Mehndi Red Cone,' describing an incident in Pakistan that led to the death of a girl who applied it during her wedding ceremony. The message appears to come from an MBBS doctor Imran Ansari of the Aga Khan University Hospital in Pakistan. The claims are mixture of hoax and facts.
The origin of these messages dates back to November 2011, and was initially shared through Forums. The message insists that 'Party Mehndi Red Cone' available in Pakistan contains dangerous chemicals that seriously infected the hands and legs of the girl who applied it during her wedding ceremony, after which doctors wanted to cut off her hands and legs, while her parents asked to give her poison. The story was also submitted as a contributed citizen's news 
According to a doctor of agha khan hospital. a red cone mehandi is arrived in all over Pakistan. This cone is filled with strong chemicals. Due to which a girl was died. In his message he said, "that girl was newly married and had applied this cone, after two to three days the red cone chemicals start burning her skin. And when the chemicals spread to the legs, she went to the agha khan hospital with her parents, the parents asked to the doctor what happened to our daughter, the doctor says, the cone mehandi she had applied contained very strong chemical and this the burning of her skin is due to the chemicals contained in the cone, so if you want to stop this chemical from spreading in her whole body then we have to cut her hands and feet. This is because we cant recover them. The parents did not agree on that. And said to doctor that instead of giving her pain by cutting her hands and feet, give her a poison injection so that she can die in peace. And the doctor gave the poison injection to the girl. After that the doctor spread this message through sms that never use this red cone mehandi.
Although the authenticity of this particular incident is not clear, there have been cases of adverse skin reactions with use of some mehndi cones in Pakistan. As reported by few Pakistani girls in fashion and beauty section of paklinks.com forum, some emergency mehndi cones did have one or more chemicals and they caused skin irritation, pain, skin peeling off, hyperpigmentation (darkening of an area of skin) and scars. Using mehendi cones for special occasions is also popular in other countries like India, Bangladesh, Morocco, Saudi Arabia and UAE.
CONCERNS OVER MEHNDI CONES

Henna is a flowering plant, the powdered leaves of which are typically used by women in Mehndi ceremony - as a part of traditional blessing, as well as for joy and beauty. The natural mehndi is unlikely to cause skin reactions, but when it is mixed with certain chemicals, it can cause allergic reactions. Some manufacturers that sell Henna in the form of cones can use harmful chemicals like para-phenylenediamine (PPD), O-Aminophinol and Phenol - to make it colorful or darker.
PPD is generally used in permanent hair dyes and is not recommended in non-permanent hair dyes such as henna. When a person uses henna with PPD for first few times, she may be fine, but with subsequent applications, the skin can become sensitive and cause allergies. These harmful chemicals added to henna may cause itching, rashes, blistering, body ache, throat swelling, restlessness, low blood pressure etc. You can see pictures of few such cases in image gallery. People who are sensitive to these chemicals can have more adverse reactions. Some people mix black mehendi with the natural henna, which again can cause adverse skin reactions.
FDA'S TAKE ON HENNA PRODUCTS

The U.S. FDA has approved Henna only for use as a hair dye; it is not approved for direct application to the skin, as in mehndi. FDA has addressed that some manufacturers and beauticians use unapproved color additives to make the henna products adulterated and therefore illegal. FDA has in fact received reports of injuries to the skin from products marketed as henna and black henna, and therefore requires ingredient declaration.
CONCLUSION

The natural Henna products used sensibly can be a good alternative to chemical based hair and skin products. But considering the aforementioned dangers, it is important to be careful while using the emergency mehndi cones for parties 
and other occasions. When you are buying a henna product or mehndi cone, you should look for the manufacturer's name and address, and also the product's contents. Moreover, it is always better to do a patch test and check for any reaction before you go for the actual mehendi process.

[www.keralites.net] 8 Pieces of Pizza ....

 

8 Pieces of Pizza , a thought provoking story

Wife: Don't put so many clothes for wash today
Husband: Why ?
She said : Maid has said she won't come
for two days
Husband :Why ?
Wife : She said she is going to meet her
granddaughter during Ganpati festival
Husband : OK, Will not put too many clothes
Wife : And , Shall I give her Rs. 500 for
Ganpati ? Festival bonus ?
Husband : Why ? Diwali is approaching , we
will give her at that time..
Wife : Oh no dear . She is poor. Going to
meet her daughter and granddaughter , so
she will also feel nice. Moreover, everything
has become so expensive these days. How
will she able to celebrate festival ?
Husband : You ! I don't know why you
become emotional so easily
Wife : Oh dear, don't worry .I am going to
cancel today's program of ordering Pizza.
Why unnecessarily blow away Rs. 500 on
eight pieces of stale bread.
Husband : Wow. Great .Snatching Pizza
from us and giving to the maid !

Maid returned after three days and got busy
in mopping and dusting. Husband asked her
Husband : So, how was the vacation ?
Maid : very nice sahib.. Didi had given Rs
500 .. festival bonus..
Husband : So you went and met your
daughter ? and also met your
granddaughter ?
Maid: yes sahib. Enjoyed a lot and spent Rs
500 in two days time.
Husband : Really ? Ok so what did you do
with Rs. 500?
Maid : Rs. 150 for dress for granddaughter,
Rs 40 for a doll, bought sweets worth Rs 50
for daughter, Rs 50 as offering to Deity in
temple, Rs 60 towards bus fare….Rs 25 for
bangles for daughter, bought a nice belt
worth Rs 50 for son-in-law, balance Rs 75
gave to daughter to buy copy and pencil for
granddaughter. Maid gave a full account of
the expenses incurred
Husband : so much in Rs 500?

With surprise, he started thinking….the eight
pieces of Pizza appeared in front of his
eyes and each one of them acted as a
hammer started pricking his consciousness.
For the price of one Pizza , he started
comparing the expenses his maid had
incurred during her visit to her daughter..
The eight pieces of Pizza floated in front of
his eyes. Each one of them started hitting
his conscience.

He started comparing the expense incurred
in buying one pizza for himself with the
expenses incurred by his maid in the festival
she celebrated. First piece .. dress for the
child, second piece… towards sweets..
Third piece… towards offering to the deity in
the temple. Fourth piece….towards bus fare.
Fifth piece.. towards doll. Sixth piece
towards bangles, seventh piece ,, towards
belt for the son-in-law. Eight piece towards
copy and pencil.

So far he had observed pizza only from one
angle. He turned it upside down and
observe how it looks like from the other
side. .. but today his maid showed him the
other side of the pizza….

The eight pieces of pizza showed him the
real meaning of life..in an instant the
meaning of "Spending for life" or " Life for
spending."
