A viral video has put the spotlight back on food safety in India. This time, it is about eggs. A doctor’s angry reaction to a recent egg test claim has triggered panic, debate, and uncomfortable questions. The video discusses the alleged presence of a banned antibiotic residue in packaged eggs and what it could mean for public health.
The issue gained attention after claims surfaced that a nitrofuran metabolite residue was detected in egg test of a popular brand. While some people brushed it off as harmless, the doctor in the viral clip did the opposite. He warned that this was not a small issue and should never be taken lightly. His main question was – If this substance is banned, why was it found at all?
Egg Test Raises Alarming Questions About Safety
In the viral video, the doctor explains that what was found was a nitrofuran metabolite residue. He stresses that if the same result had surfaced in the United States, the consequences would have been severe. According to him, the company would likely have been shut down and the owners jailed.
What angers him most is the public response. Many are justifying the finding by saying the amount was only 0.73 mcg. The doctor strongly disagrees. He reminds viewers that zero tolerance exists for a reason. If something is banned, it should not be present in any quantity.
He also raises concerns about long-term health risks. Eggs are fed to small children every day. He asks how people can casually dismiss the risks of cancer, infertility, and liver damage when exposure could happen daily. He points out that toxins do not always cause immediate harm. Instead, they slowly build up in the body.
Why The Bigger Picture Cannot Be Ignored
Another disturbing detail is how the issue came to light. The test was reportedly done by a private individual using personal funds. The doctor claims there was no official push from authorities to conduct such testing. Even after the findings went viral, there has been no visible action.
He urges people to think beyond eggs. If this substance can appear here, could it also be present in milk, curd or cheese? He questions whether animals are being given such drugs to prevent infections and boost production. In his view, food adulteration has become widespread.
The doctor explains that the liver can only detoxify harmful substances up to a limit. When exposure happens regularly, toxins bind with liver proteins and slowly accumulate. Over time, this can lead to serious diseases, including cancer.
He also claims there is an uncomfortable alignment between the food industry and the medical industry. Hospitals are multiplying, and lifestyle diseases are rising. According to him, this is not a coincidence.
His final message is not to blindly trust labels or systems. Be aware of what you eat, ask questions and demand accountability. The concern is not about panic, but responsibility. If a banned substance was found, how did it get there, and who is responsible?
