The fakes in the things we use daily is the new trend in my country that I'm genuinely interested and invested in. Everything in life makes up how well and how long our lives will go on, and our lives are so fragile that little things can end it, most unexpectedly. I understand when life ends so unexpectedly but what about the slow kills?
It's one thing to live life recklessly and one ends up badly sick, it's another to actually try to live healthy and still fall badly sick. What could have gone wrong? What is going on in our country nowadays that has been there for a while and killing people silently? I found my answer in a trend that started recently about fake products.
First, I heard of fake toothpastes and it happened to be the one a lot of us are using, or used before for a long while. It's surprising how the things we use everyday turn out to be what is slowly killing us, without us knowing. Luckily for me, I had learned of the ingredient in toothpaste that is harming our health and choose a better choice.
And then, it's the fake women product for menstrual flow. As sacred and important that is, it's alarming and scary to hear of some manufacturers producing products that will harm the users. I read of how these fakes stop the flow of women before their usual time of it to stop. I've not had any experience of it but it's alarming.
Another trend that is disturbing and I am interested in is, the increase in sales of fruits, vegetables and other foods that are seedless or not grown naturally as it had always been. Cost of living is so high now because our daily foods are being sold costly but it's in these times that we have so many fakes of them that they're cost.
There are many other things that are trending today that didn't just start to harm our health now that they are trending but long before now and this is why I am genuinely invested in it because I know very well how important it is to be healthy if one has to continue to live especially in this country as living keeps getting hard to sustain.
It is important to me that I live healthy as much as it is for me that my families wherever they are live healthily too. So if the country is becoming unsafe with our daily uses like this, it is something I am genuinely concerned about and it has taught me a lot so far, especially in the aspect of being more careful of what I consume.
Even when most things are healthy to take in, our body changes and are different from each other. I have learned to understand my body system well enough to know the things I should be more careful to use or not and also be aware of what is going on with products sold to me, I can't be killing myself with the money that I have earned.
