Can’t agree more! We used CGM for a clinical trial even then we had issues as they are several non food factors which influences short term values: sleep, exercise, stress etc. So using one meal reading and extrapolate that as advice to the whole world is insane!

A timely piece from @ndcnn on the CGM craze. In the era before Accuchek, bloodwork was an annual event, then as labs mushroomed, 'twas a quarterly test. All thru, one rule prevailed: be disciplined w/ food, exercise daily & take your meds. Cc @baxirahul thehindubusinessline.com/specials/pulse…

Continuous glucose monitoring - quite the fad these days! I could have done with it but it's very expensive with that patch for 15 days. What about the rest of my life? @ndcnn takes it up for @businessline thehindubusinessline.com/specials/pulse…

This is a good rant by @Shrabonti. Younger PR agency professionals may not necessarily know the difference between a journalist and an influencer. A journalist works in earned media. They do not parrot the client's point of view in the media they work for and do ask questions…

A few days back, @ShachiGambhir told me her Zepto orders automatically started getting placed as COD instead of the usual online payment method. I ignored it at first, but then realized how it's yet another shady practice. Zepto has changed its default CTA on the order screen to…

Normally a trip to Gurgaon takes me an hour and half one way. Given heavy rains today, i resigned myself to a 2 hour plus trip. Packed snacks, a thermos, reading material. Guess what. Reached my venue in an hour flat! It's Murphy's law.

My East delhi neighbourhood pavements are chained too. Citizens are forced to walk on the road & fear getting hit by vehicles. Glad @newslaundry highlighted this. Is pavement for cars or pedestrians! In a Delhi neighbourhood, the pedestrian zone wears chains…

@airindia why have you removed the storage bag on the seats. Where is one supposed to keep bottles and books. Essential things travellers take on three hour long flights. This is maddening. And with cramped economy seats very uncomfortable. #avgeek #AI #poordesign

As Wimbledon is almost at an end I think it’s only right that I post the fabulous Not the Nine O’clock News lampoon of John McEnroe’s epic 1981 Wimbledon meltdown, which I believe every child in the world took great delight in repeating ad nauseam in the playground.

"As global MNCs retreat from DEI, India Inc. has a chance to rewrite the playbook. �⚡️ Less performative targets, more retention-focused strategies—flex work, paternity leave & gender-neutral policies. Could this be DEI 2.0?" -@ndcnn #Diversity #Leadership #IndiaRising…

When a hotel has check-in time of 4 pm, and check-out of 11 am, aren’t they actually offering a rate for 19 hours only and not for a “day”?! How can this be allowed? Isn’t there a regulatory body to control these things in hotel industry??!
