Something About Steroids

Steroids are Harmful The usual method I know that people use to develop muscles and enhance power is through exercising and partaking in other physical activities. Lifting weights, jogging, push-ups are just some of the specific activities in order to improve health as well as physical characteristics. However, there are some people who choose to use steroids as another way to be muscular and powerful. Steroids, more specifically anabolic steroids, are drugs that are synthetic versions of testosterone. Anabolic steroids should be differentiated from corticosteroids. Both drugs are prescribed by doctors but for different reasons. Whereas corticosteroids are used for swelling and regulating overactive immune responses of the body, anabolic steroids are mainly for people who have delayed puberty or are having problems with their testicular function. Anabolic steroids promote the growth of skeletal muscle as well as other male characteristics that appear during puberty such as

KNOWING YOUR CUSTOMERS -- FOR A FREELANCER

KNOWING YOUR CUSTOMERS –FOR A FREELANCER It is often believed that ‘freelancers’ are king of their own domains. They can do whatever they like and there are no repercussions. This is a wrong notion rooted deeply in the minds of lots of people who are unaware of the pros and cons of the entire freelancer’s world. For every business enterprise it is essential to identify the needs and wants of their potential clients. The products are designed to match those needs and thus companies succeed in maximizing their profits.

Since my concern here is not to indulge in a debate as to who is poor and who is not; but address poverty as an issue and suggest some possible ways to deal with poverty.

If I was writing a research paper to present in the parliament I would have b

MEDICAL MALPRACTICE IN INDIA

MEDICAL MALPRACTICE IN INDIA Fake doctors are a phenomenon that plagues most of South East Asia particularly India, Pakistan and even Bangladesh. The most important underlying reason for such fake doctors is due to the low literacy levels in the country especially in the rural areas. But let us clarify one thing first; medical malpractice does not mean that we are only talking about fake doctors or health practitioners, it also includes those who are ‘genuine’ doctors but do not practice according to the medical norms and conduct fit for a doctor. So what we have in my beautiful country India is both; on one hand we have an abundance and continuous supply of fake doctors, dispensers practicing as professional doctors in rural areas of the country where the writ of the law is weaker and access of media is rare. But this is not the only scenario; we also have doctors who solemnly took the Hippocratic oath, studied medicine for 5 years and even completed their house jobs but then
