Mangaluru, Aug 4: Institution of Veterinarians of Poultry Industry (IVPI) and Karnataka Poultry Farmers & Breeders Association (KPFBA) have vehemently opposed the recommendation of Dr K John Vijay Sagar, HOD of Children and Adolescent Mental Health of NIMHANS, who is also a member of expert team of National Educational Policy (NEP), on ‘Ill effects of eating eggs and issues in life style?

IVPI and KPFBA said that the recommendation of Dr John is not based on any scientific evidence and the human beings are consuming chicken and eggs from time immemorial.

Dr G Deve Gowda, president of IVPI said, “Egg is the energy centre and provides deciding nutrients to the body.”

Dr Sushant B Rai, president of KPFBA said that huge losses are suffered by small and very small farmers of poultry due to this proposal. Around 30% of poultry farmers have given up poultry business.

    On the one hand the government is promoting egg consumption by asking government schools to provide free daily eggs in their meal when in school, and on the other it is saying eggs are not healthy. If eggs are consumed on a daily basis, indeed that would be unhealthy as it would be bad for cholesterol - and lead to heart disease. If children are habituated to eat eggs daily, it would become staplel for the rest of their life which may be shortened because of bad cholsesterol.... May be the government provide a balance diet; alternate eggs with fruits like apple, banana, shantra, etc.
