This is so horrific.

———————

I have been following Siro’s story for 30 years, ever since I went to interview her and four other rural midwives in India’s Bihar state in 1996.

They had been identified by a non-governmental organisation as being behind the murder of baby girls in the district of Katihar where, under pressure from the newborns’ parents, they were killing them by feeding them chemicals or simply wringing their necks.

Hakiya Devi, the eldest of the midwives I interviewed, told me at the time she had killed 12 or 13 babies. Another midwife, Dharmi Devi, admitted to killing more - at least 15-20.

It is impossible to ascertain the exact number of babies they may have killed, given the way the data was gathered.

But they featured in a report published in 1995 by an NGO, based on interviews with them and 30 other midwives. If the report’s estimates are accurate, more than 1,000 baby girls were being murdered every year in one district, by just 35 midwives. According to the report, Bihar at the time had more than half a million midwives. And infanticide was not limited to Bihar.

Refusing orders, Hakiya said, was almost never an option for a midwife.

“The family would lock the room and stand behind us with sticks,” says Hakiya Devi. “They’d say: ‘We already have four-five daughters. This will wipe out our wealth. Once we give dowry for our girls, we will starve to death. Now, another girl has been born. Kill her.’

“Who could we complain to? We were scared. If we went to the police, we’d get into trouble. If we spoke up, people would threaten us."

The role of a midwife in rural India is rooted in tradition, and burdened by the harsh realities of poverty and caste. The midwives I interviewed belonged to the lower castes in India’s caste hierarchy. Midwifery was a profession passed on to them by mothers and grandmothers. They lived in a world where refusing orders of powerful, upper-caste families was unthinkable.

The midwife could be promised a sari, a sack of grain or a small amount of money for killing a baby. Sometimes even that was not paid. The birth of a boy earned them about 1,000 rupees. The birth of a girl earned them half.

The reason for this imbalance was steeped in India’s custom of giving a dowry, they explained. Though the custom was outlawed in 1961, it still held strong in the 90s - and indeed continues into the present day.

A dowry can be anything - cash, jewellery, utensils. But for many families, rich or poor, it is the condition of a wedding. And this is what, for many, still makes the birth of a son a celebration and the birth of a daughter a financial burden.

Siro Devi, the only midwife of those I interviewed who is still alive, used a vivid physical image to explain this disparity in status.

“A boy is above the ground - higher. A daughter is below - lower. Whether a son feeds or takes care of his parents or not, they all want a boy.”

The preference for sons can be seen in India’s national-level data. Its most recent census, in 2011, recorded a ratio of 943 women to every 1,000 men. This is nevertheless an improvement on the 1990s - in the 1991 census, the ratio was 927/1,000.

By the time I finished filming the midwives’ testimonies in 1996, a small, silent change had begun. The midwives who once carried out these orders had started to resist. 

This change was instigated by Anila Kumari, a social worker who supported women in the villages around Katihar, and was dedicated to addressing the root causes of these killings.

Anila’s approach was simple. She asked the midwives, “Would you do this to your own daughter?”

Her question apparently pierced years of rationalisation and denial. The midwives got some financial help via community groups and gradually the cycle of violence was interrupted.

Siro, speaking to me in 2007, explained the change.

“Now, whoever asks me to kill, I tell them: ‘Look, give me the child, and I’ll take her to Anila Madam.’”

The midwives rescued at least five newborn girls from families who wanted them killed or had already abandoned them.

One child died, but Anila arranged for the other four to be sent to Bihar’s capital, Patna, to an NGO which organised their adoption.

The story could have ended there. But I wanted to know what had become of those girls who were adopted, and where life had taken them.

Anila’s records were meticulous but they had few details about post-adoption.

Working with a BBC World Service team, I got in touch with a woman called Medha Shekar who, back in the 90s, was researching infanticide in Bihar when the babies rescued by Anila and the midwives began arriving at her NGO. Remarkably, Medha was still in touch with a young woman who, she believed, was one of these rescued babies.

Anila told me that she had given all the girls saved by the midwives the prefix “Kosi” before their name, a homage to the Kosi river in Bihar. Medha remembered that Monica had been named with this “Kosi” prefix before her adoption.

The adoption agency would not let us look at Monica’s records, so we can never be sure. But her origins in Patna, her approximate date of birth and the prefix “Kosi” all point to the same conclusion: Monica is, in all probability, one of the five babies rescued by Anila and the midwives.

When I went to meet her at her parents’ home some 2,000km (1,242 miles) away in Pune, she said she felt lucky to have been adopted by a loving family.

“This is my definition of a normal happy life and I am living it,” she said.

Monica knew that she had been adopted from Bihar. But we were able to give her more details about the circumstances of her adoption.

Earlier this year, Monica travelled to Bihar to meet Anila and Siro. 

Monica saw herself as the culmination of years of hard work by Anila and the midwives.

“Someone prepares a lot to do well in an exam. I feel like that. They did the hard work and now they’re so curious to meet the result… So definitely, I would like to meet them.”

Anila wept tears of joy when she met Monica. But Siro’s response felt different.

She sobbed hard, holding Monica close and combing through her hair.

“I took you [to the orphanage] to save your life… My soul is at peace now,” she told her.

But when, a couple of days later, I attempted to press Siro about her reaction, she resisted further scrutiny.

“What happened in the past is in the past,” she said.

But what is not in the past is the prejudice some still hold against baby girls.

Reports of infanticide are now relatively rare, but sex-selective abortion remains common, despite being illegal since 1994.

If one listens to the traditional folk songs sung during childbirth, known as Sohar, in parts of north India, joy is reserved for the birth of a male child. Even in 2024, it is an effort to get local singers to change the lyrics so that the song celebrates the birth of a girl.

While we were filming our documentary, two baby girls were discovered abandoned in Katihar - one in bushes, another at the roadside, just a few hours old. One later died. The other was put up for adoption.

Before Monica left Bihar, she visited this baby in the Special Adoption Centre in Katihar.

She says she was haunted by the realisation that though female infanticide may have been reduced, abandoning baby girls continues.

“This is a cycle… I can see myself there a few years ago, and now again there’s some girl similar to me.”

But there were to be happier similarities too.

The baby has now been adopted by a couple in the north-eastern state of Assam. They have named her Edha, which means happiness.

“We saw her photo, and we were clear - a baby once abandoned cannot be abandoned twice,” says her adoptive father Gaurav, an officer in the Indian air force.

Every few weeks Gaurav sends me a video of Edha's latest antics. I sometimes share them with Monica.

Looking back, the 30 years spent on this story were never just about the past. It was about confronting uncomfortable truths. The past cannot be undone, but it can be transformed.

And in that transformation, there is hope.

Midwife Siro Devi is clinging to Monica Thatte, sobbing. Monica, in her late 20s, has returned to her birthplace - the Indian town where Siro has delivered hundreds of babies.

But this is no straightforward reunion. There is a painful history behind Siro's tears. Shortly before Monica was born, Siro and several Indian midwives like her were regularly pressured to murder newborn girls.

Monica, evidence suggests, is one they saved.

I have been following Siro’s story for 30 years, ever since I went to interview her and four other rural midwives in India’s Bihar state in 1996.

E.P.A. Again Seeks Limits on a Harmful Pesticide. (New York Times)

Excerpt from this story from the New York Times:

Almost 25 years after federal regulators curbed household use of a pesticide linked to learning disorders in children, and three years after a total ban on its use on food crops, the chemical is again being applied to everything from bananas to turnips in most states.

The saga of this pesticide, which has the unwieldy name chlorpyrifos, is a stark reminder of why so many Americans are alarmed about industrial farming and the food supply. The concern helped propel Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential candidacy and subsequent selection to head the Department of Health and Human Services.

The issue is also a vivid illustration of the obstacles that regulators will face if they try to make good on campaign promises to remove harmful chemicals from the food supply, as Mr. Kennedy often has.

The latest twist arrived on Monday, when the Environmental Protection Agency proposed outlawing the use of chlorpyrifos on farmed foods — except on 11 crops, including fruits children tend to eat in large quantities, such as apples, oranges, peaches and cherries.

In an interview, Dr. Michal Freedhoff, assistant administrator of the office of chemical safety and pollution prevention at the E.P.A., said the proposed rule would provide the greatest benefit to children’s health while still abiding by a federal-court decision last year that overturned the agency’s original ban.

The proposal will lower the amount of the pesticide applied to fields and orchards annually by 3.9 million pounds, from the 5.3 million pounds used each year from 2014 to 2018, according to a preliminary E.P.A. analysis.

“This will result in a 70 percent reduction from the historic total amounts of chlorpyrifos used on food before this all started,” Dr. Freedhoff said.

The new permitted crops will include alfalfa, asparagus, soybeans, strawberries, wheat, sugar beets and cotton. The pesticide would also be allowed on Christmas tree farms and golf courses, and on tobacco and crops grown for seed, as well as for public mosquito control and in enclosed ant and roach bait.

The public has 60 days to comment on the rule.

Chlorpyrifos manufacturers have indicated they will not challenge the proposed limits and will not pursue broader food crop use, Dr. Freedhoff said. Gharda Chemicals, the manufacturer based in Mumbai, India, that sued over the original ban, did not respond to repeated requests for comment. Mr. Kennedy also did not respond to requests for comment.

The human brain is one of the most sophisticated organs nature has ever made. One of the most interesting aspects of the brain is its power to retain information, which we call as memory. Memory is perhaps the most vital of the aspects that differentiates human beings from other animals. However, memory can become faulty due to several reasons, and in that case the person is not able to make full use of his or her potentials.

Since ages, drugs and natural remedies have been prescribed to enhance memories in people. Ayurveda has a treasure-chest of such memory enhancing drugs, which are today popular all over the world due to their proven effective qualities. The following is a list of the most effective herbs used in memory enhancement all over the world.

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri)

Brahmi is perhaps the most investigated of all herbs for its memory enhancement properties. Now it is certified that brahmi has several chemicals that promote the protein synthesis process in the nerve and the brain cells, which is directly responsible for developing the mental capacity of the brain. Brahmi can make a person think clearer, and hence the memory becomes more vivid. In India, brahmi is used in countless forms to improve mental capacity for school-going children. Brahmi also increases the grasping power of the brain, due to which people can understand and assimilate information easily.

In adults, brahmi helps in relaxing and soothing the cells of the brain, and brings it to a normal state of functioning. Thus, brahmi is a valuable anti-anxiety agent and an antidepressant. Brahmi oil is quite often used to massage the head. This sort of massage immediately puts the mind at rest and the mental abilities rise drastically after its use.

Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba)

Ginkgo works by improving the blood circulation to the central nervous system. This is the primary requisite for a healthy and capable brain. Apart from this, ginkgo corrects any damage done to the cells of different parts of the body, including the brain. It also minimizes the effects of the blood clotting. All these properties of the ginkgo have been studied in detail by western experts and they have obtained very encouraging results.

Ginkgo has got a place of respect in Ayurveda. The extract of the ginkgo is prescribed to people who have amnesia and Alzheimer's disease. Several herbal brain tonics have ginkgo as one of the chief ingredients.

Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica)

The gotu kola is very effective in increasing the circulation of blood to different parts of the body, including the brain. It protects the brain from damage due to the wear and tear of its cells. Gotu kola can regenerate lost energy from the human system, and make the person feel more zestful.

Gotu kola is generally used in tonics intended to re-vitalize the brain. It improves concentration, makes the brain more receptive to information and also brings about an enhancement in the memory.

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)

Ashwagandha is one of the most essential components used in enhancing memory and overall brain functioning. Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, stress-buster and a re-vitalizer. Ashwagandha has a cooling and calming effect on the brain. After a hard day's work, ashwagandha can bring the brain back to its normal state of functioning.

Block Print Fabric: The Timeless Craft of Handcrafted Beauty

Block print fabric is a classic symbol of traditional craftsmanship, offering a beautiful blend of artistry, culture, and sustainability. With its origins tracing back to ancient civilizations, block printing continues to capture hearts around the world. Today, it is a popular choice in home decor, fashion, and accessories, thanks to its unique aesthetic and eco-friendly production methods.

The Art of Block Printing

Block printing is a traditional method of textile printing that involves carving intricate designs onto wooden blocks, which are then dipped in dye and pressed onto fabric. The beauty of this process lies in its simplicity, precision, and the handmade nature of each piece. It requires great skill and patience, as each block needs to be carefully aligned to ensure that the design is consistent across the fabric.

While block printing is practiced in many regions, India is particularly known for its mastery of the craft. Regions like Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Gujarat’s Kutch district are renowned for producing high-quality block print fabrics, showcasing vivid patterns and striking colors.

What Makes Block Print Fabric Special?

Uniqueness in Every Piece: One of the most appealing features of block print fabric is its individuality. Since the process is done by hand, each piece of fabric carries slight variations, making it one of a kind. No two pieces are identical, adding to the charm and character of the fabric.

Sustainability: Block printing is an eco-friendly process, using natural dyes and organic materials. This sustainable approach makes it an ideal choice for environmentally-conscious consumers who prefer handcrafted, low-impact products. The use of natural pigments ensures that block printed fabrics are free from harmful chemicals, making them gentle on the skin and safe for the environment.

Rich Cultural Heritage: Block print fabric is not just a piece of cloth, but a part of a rich cultural legacy. Each design often has its roots in the history and traditions of the region where it was created. From floral motifs to geometric patterns and even abstract designs, the art of block printing reflects the diverse cultures and stories of the artisans who create them.

Versatility in Use: The timeless appeal of block print fabric makes it a versatile option for a wide range of products. It can be used to create stunning home decor items such as bedspreads, pillow covers, curtains, and upholstery. In fashion, block print fabric is used in creating beautiful dresses, skirts, scarves, and even accessories. The intricate designs can transform any piece of clothing or home decor into a statement of style and elegance.

Durability: Block print fabric is known for its durability. The techniques used in the printing process ensure that the fabric can withstand wear and tear over time. The natural dyes used in block printing are also designed to last longer than many synthetic alternatives, meaning that the prints retain their vibrancy for a longer period.

Popular Block Print Designs

Block print fabrics come in a wide variety of designs, each having its own unique flair. Some of the most popular designs include:

Floral Patterns: One of the most popular themes in block print fabric, floral designs range from delicate motifs to bold, oversized blooms. These are often seen in traditional Indian block print fabrics like those from Jaipur and Bagru.

Paisley: A signature pattern with Indian origins, paisley prints are known for their tear-shaped, swirling motifs. This intricate design has become a staple in both Indian and global fashion.

Geometric Shapes: From squares and diamonds to triangles and zigzags, geometric designs offer a more modern take on block print fabrics. These designs are often used to create a contemporary feel in home decor and fashion.

Abstract Art: Some block prints take inspiration from nature, landscapes, or abstract concepts, leading to unique designs that tell a story.

How to Care for Block Print Fabric?

Caring for block print fabric requires a little attention to ensure that the colors and prints remain intact. Here are a few tips for maintaining your block print fabrics:

Gentle Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach that can fade the colors.

Drying: Always dry block print fabric away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading. Lay it flat to air dry for the best results.

Ironing: If needed, iron on the reverse side of the fabric to preserve the design and prevent direct heat from damaging the print.

Conclusion

This resurgence isn't just about reviving an old craft; it's about reintroducing the beauty of handmade authenticity into our daily lives. Let’s explore how block printing is breathing new life into modern wardrobes, especially through items like the ever-popular white kurti for women.

The History of Block Printing

Block printing, one of the oldest types of printmaking, has roots stretching back centuries, particularly in regions like India. Each stamp, carved meticulously from wood, tells a story of the hands that crafted it, akin to a chef who lovingly prepares a family recipe passed down through generations.

Why Block Printing Is Returning

In an age of fast fashion, the allure of block printing lies in its slow, thoughtful production process. Consumers are increasingly seeking out items that not only look good but also offer a story of authenticity and craft. It's a return to the basics—a kind of fashion equivalent to the farm-to-table movement in food.

The Process of Block Printing

The process of block printing involves carving designs into wooden blocks, which are then dipped in dye and stamped onto fabric. This method allows for a level of detail that is both rustic and exquisite, much like the difference between a hand-painted mural and a digitally printed poster.

Block Prints in Modern Fashion

2024 has seen block prints emerge vibrantly in high fashion and street style alike. From runway dresses to casual white kurtis for women, block prints are being celebrated for their artistic and versatile appeal.

Spotlight on White Kurti

The white kurti, a staple in many wardrobes, serves as a perfect canvas for block prints, transforming a simple garment into a showcase of art. Imagine a white kurti as a blank page in a book, waiting to be written upon with vivid blue patterns or subtle earth tones.

Combining Tradition with Modern Style

Modern designers are blending block prints with contemporary cuts and styles, making traditional crafts accessible and appealing to a global audience. It’s like listening to a classic song remixed into a modern hit—it retains the soul of the original but feels fresh and new.

How to Wear Block Printed Kurtis

Block printed kurtis can be styled for any occasion, from the office to a garden party. Pair them with palazzo pants for a chic look, or jeans for a more casual vibe. The versatility of block prints makes them a fantastic wardrobe staple.

Caring for Your Block Printed Fabrics

Caring for block printed garments involves gentle washing and avoiding harsh chemicals, which helps preserve the prints and fabric quality. Treat these garments as you would a piece of delicate artwork.

Where to Buy Authentic Block Printed Outfits

To ensure authenticity and quality, purchase block printed outfits from reputable artisans or boutiques that specialize in traditional crafts. This not only guarantees you get a genuine piece but also supports the artisans directly.

The Environmental Impact of Block Printing

Block printing is environmentally friendly, using less water and fewer chemicals than modern textile printing methods. Supporting this craft means making a more sustainable and ecologically conscious fashion choice.

Block Printing Workshops and Courses

For those interested in learning this beautiful art form, numerous workshops and courses offer hands-on experience in block printing. It’s a chance to not just wear the art, but to create it yourself.

The Future of Block Printing in Fashion

As we look towards the future, block printing is set to remain a vital part of the fashion landscape. Its appeal lies in its ability to merge tradition with innovation, creating pieces that are timeless yet modern.

Conclusion

The resurgence of block printing is a testament to the growing desire for fashion that values sustainability, craftsmanship, and story. As traditional prints make their comeback, they remind us that in our fast-paced world, there’s incredible value in taking a moment to appreciate the beauty and history woven into our clothes—especially in something as elegantly simple as a white kurti for women. So, let’s embrace the magic of block printing and transform our look with garments that tell a richer story.

The human brain is one of the most sophisticated organs nature has ever made. One of the most interesting aspects of the brain is its power to retain information, which we call as memory. Memory is perhaps the most vital of the aspects that differentiates human beings from other animals. However, memory can become faulty due to several reasons, and in that case the person is not able to make full use of his or her potentials.

Since ages, drugs and natural remedies have been prescribed to enhance memories in people. Ayurveda has a treasure-chest of such memory enhancing drugs, which are today popular all over the world due to their proven effective qualities.

Brahmi is perhaps the most investigated of all herbs for its memory enhancement properties. Now it is certified that brahmi has several chemicals that promote the protein synthesis process in the nerve and the brain cells, which is directly responsible for developing the mental capacity of the brain. Brahmi can make a person think clearer, and hence the memory becomes more vivid. In India, brahmi is used in countless forms to improve mental capacity for school-going children. Brahmi also increases the grasping power of the brain, due to which people can understand and assimilate information easily.

In adults, brahmi helps in relaxing and soothing the cells of the brain, and brings it to a normal state of functioning. Thus, brahmi is a valuable anti-anxiety agent and an antidepressant. Brahmi oil is quite often used to massage the head. This sort of massage immediately puts the mind at rest and the mental abilities rise drastically after its use.

Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba)

Ginkgo works by improving the blood circulation to the central nervous system. This is the primary requisite for a healthy and capable brain.

All these properties of the ginkgo have been studied in detail by western experts and they have obtained very encouraging results.

Ginkgo has got a place of respect in Ayurveda. The extract of the ginkgo is prescribed to people who have amnesia and Alzheimer's disease. Several herbal brain tonics have ginkgo as one of the chief ingredients.

Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica)

Ashwagandha has a cooling and calming effect on the brain. After a hard day's work, ashwagandha can bring the brain back to its normal state of functioning.

Ayurveda regards ashwagandha as a medha rasayana, i.e. a brain tonic. It has direct results in improving the memory capacity of the brain. Ashwagandha is very powerful in making new concepts seem clearer and easy to understand. It is a vital component of almost all herbal brain tonics available in the market.

Mulethi (Glycyrrhiza glabra)

Mulethi is none other than licorice, the herb already known worldwide for its various curative properties. Mulethi is an efficient brain tonic and a re-vitalizer for the brain.

Why Lab Grown Yellow Diamonds Are a Popular Choice

Lab grown yellow diamonds have become increasingly popular in recent years, particularly among those seeking a unique yet sustainable alternative to natural diamonds. These diamonds are created in laboratories, mimicking the conditions under which natural diamonds form, but in a controlled environment. Let’s explore the reasons why lab grown yellow diamonds are gaining traction in the Indian market and beyond.

1. Cost-Effective and Accessible

Lab grown yellow diamonds are more affordable than their mined counterparts, often costing 30-40% less. This makes them an attractive option for those who want the beauty and luxury of diamonds without the hefty price tag. The lower cost is due to the fact that the process of growing diamonds in labs is far more efficient than mining, which involves extensive labour, transportation, and middlemen.

For those looking to invest in high-quality diamonds for special occasions like weddings or engagements, lab created yellow diamonds offer a cost-effective solution without compromising on the look or quality.

2. Environmentally Friendly

Lab grown diamonds are a more sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditionally mined diamonds. The mining of natural diamonds has long been associated with environmental damage, including deforestation and water pollution. Lab created diamonds, on the other hand, require significantly less energy and resources to produce. Since these diamonds are made in a lab, there’s no need for large-scale extraction processes, making them a much greener option for eco-conscious buyers.

This sustainability factor is especially important in today's world, where consumers are becoming more mindful of their environmental impact and opting for products that align with eco-friendly values.

3. Ethically Sourced

One of the major concerns associated with natural diamonds is the ethical issues surrounding their sourcing. Conflict diamonds, also known as blood diamonds, have a long history of being linked to human rights abuses. Lab grown yellow diamonds completely eliminate these concerns. Since they are created in a controlled environment, unethical labour practices or conflict zones are not involved.

For socially responsible buyers, the assurance that their diamond purchase is free from human exploitation adds immense value.

4. Enhanced color Options

Lab created yellow diamonds come with the advantage of consistent and vivid color. In the natural environment, yellow diamonds get their color from traces of nitrogen, and it can be challenging to find a diamond with the perfect hue. However, in a lab setting, this process is carefully controlled, allowing lab grown diamonds manufacturers to produce yellow diamonds with a consistent and desired color intensity.

Whether you are looking for a soft, pale yellow or a vibrant canary yellow, lab grown diamonds offer a wider range of options to meet your preferences.

5. Superior Quality and Durability

Many people assume that lab grown diamonds are inferior to natural ones, but this is not the case. Lab created diamonds are identical to natural diamonds in terms of chemical composition, physical properties, and appearance. They have the same brilliance, fire, and hardness, making them just as durable and beautiful.

In fact, lab grown yellow diamonds often come with fewer inclusions, which means they can have better clarity compared to natural diamonds. For buyers who prioritise quality, this makes lab created yellow diamonds an excellent choice.

6. Support from Manufacturers

The availability of lab grown diamonds in India is expanding, with more manufacturers offering these gemstones across the country. Indian jewellers are now embracing lab grown diamonds, which means customers have easier access to customised jewellery options featuring yellow diamonds. As the demand continues to grow, lab grown yellow diamond manufacturers are working to innovate and enhance the quality of their products, making them even more appealing.

Conclusion

In conclusion, lab grown yellow diamonds are gaining popularity for their affordability, ethical production, environmental benefits, and quality. As more buyers in India and across the globe become aware of the advantages of lab created diamonds, it’s clear that these stunning gemstones are here to stay. Whether for an engagement ring, wedding jewellery, or a unique statement piece, lab grown yellow diamonds offer a brilliant and responsible alternative to mined diamonds.

The Magic of Matcha: A Deep Dive into VAHDAM® India's Matcha Tea

This emerald green powder has gained immense popularity recently, derived from specially grown and processed green tea leaves. Matcha, commonly known for its distinct flavour, bright green colour, and rich health dividends, is more than just a tea; it has become a cultural and culinary craze. VAHDAM ® India is a brand known for its commitment to quality and authenticity in offering some of the best matcha teas one can find today in the marketplace. It covers the history, advantages, and some of the unique aspects of VAHDAM® India's matcha teas; here's why this should be a go-for-tea for everyone who loves their cup of tea and for those health nuts out there.

Where Did the Magic Begin—Matcha Tea? The history of matcha is lengthy, spanning over one thousand years. It was born in China first, during the Tang Dynasty, and later arrived in Japan as the work of Zen Buddhist monks. They would drink this green tea before meditation to help them stay aware and refreshed, all the while savoring its relaxing energy. In Japan, that tea ceremony would go on to become a spiritual mannerism later known as "Chanoyu," proving that the beverage of matcha meant much more than just being a simple beverage.

VAHDAM® India: A Touch of Perfection, Quality, and Sustainability VAHDAM® India is not like the others; it specializes in quality and sustainability. It procures matcha from the best organic tea gardens, thus assuring that every cup is full of purity and freshness. This superfood is grown in the misty, fertile hills of Japan, in the paw of unique climatic conditions and traditional cultivation techniques insuring in leaves that are nutritious and flavorful. This is because the leaves are grown in shade, hand-picked, and stone-ground into fine powder, so that the color and loads of antioxidants matcha offers remain intact.

The Unique Health Benefits of Matcha It is very well known that matcha has outstanding health benefits, hence its popularity among health-conscious people. When compared to normal green tea, where the leaves are just infused and then tossed away, matcha has a different methodology of consumption: it is ingested as a whole leaf, and thus, all the nutrients are consumed.

Abundant in Antioxidants: Matcha is extremely rich in a class of antioxidants called catechins. These are efficient compounds in the body that are responsible for fighting free radicals. The most potent catechin present in matcha is EGCG, which is linked to several health benefits, such as decreased inflammation and fighting chronic diseases.

Boosts Metabolism and Burns Calorie: Matcha is proven to increase metabolism and the ability to burn fats, hence very popular in managing weight.

Detoxification: The chlorophyll present in matcha detoxifies the body from heavy metals and chemicals. It is actually chlorophyll that gives it the vivid green color and adds to its detoxification properties.

Boosts Mental Clarity and Focus: Matcha contains a lot of L-theanine, an important amino acid for achieving alert calmness. It acts together with caffeine in the provision of energy that remains stable, without jitters, that is ideal for focus and mental clarity.

Improves Cardiovascular Health: Daily consumption of matcha can possibly decrease levels of LDL cholesterol in the body and minimize the risks of developing cardiovascular diseases because of the high number of antioxidant nutrients it contains.

It's VAHDAM® India's matcha, offering an all-different flavor profile. If you have ever tried any other tea, then you will know that the taste of matcha is very different. VAHDAM® India's Matcha is rich and full of umami with a hint of natural sweetness, along with smooth creamy features that can make it suitable in many culinary creations. Whether enjoyed as traditional tea, a Matcha Latte, or whisked into smoothies and desserts, VAHDAM® India's Matcha delivers a unique and satisfying experience.

How to Prepare VAHDAM® India's Matcha The making of matcha involves a science of precision and mindfulness. Here is a simple DIY that would be helpful in preparing that perfect cup of VAHDAM® India matcha:

Sift the Matcha: Sifting removes any lumps and thereby gives you a smooth and creamy texture.

Measure the Matcha: Use approximately 1 teaspoon of matcha powder per serving.

Add Hot Water: Just below boiling, say about 80°C or 176°F water, to preserve the delicate flavors and nutrients within.

Whisk: Whisk the Matcha in a zigzag motion with a bamboo whisk until frothy. This acts to aid in making matcha smooth and creamy in texture.
