What about the "pinnadi vara gas problem"???
I presume you are referring to flatulence. Intestinal gas is a by-product of digesting certain types of food, or of incomplete digestion. Anything that causes food to be incompletely digested by the stomach and/or small intestine may cause flatulence, due to fermentation by yeast or bacterial microflora, normally or abnormally present in the gastrointestinal tract. Nitrogen is the primary gas, along with carbon dioxide. Any unpleasant odour is due to the presence of sulfur-containing compounds. One of the reasons why our ancestors banned onions and garlic from the meals, in the guise of religious injunctions, is that they figured out empirically that these two contain something that is offensive – science today says that they have high proportions of sulfur-containing compounds which give rise to foul-smelling intestinal gases!! Now, how to avoid gas? While one cannot totally eliminate it, one can try to identify foods that cause excessive gas and limit their consumption.

In reference to the other half of your post, I suppose his system does not tolerate ‘adai’. Of course, there are other things that can contribute to the situation. Did his problem occur even with just one adai? Was the adai made with less or more of the frying oil?

There is also GERD(Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease ) which causes heartburn and acid regurgitation. A burning feeling starts in the chest just behind the breastbone (the sternum) that occurs after eating and can last a few minutes to several hours. There can also be pain in the chest. These symptoms of heartburn can often be mistaken for signs of a heart attack. Pain from heart condition is usually made worse by physical activity, but a heartburn is not usually caused by physical activity. However, if you think you are having a heart attack, or you're not sure, it's important to go to the emergency room immediately, to take an ECG, treadmill and and other allied tests.

I assume the ECG was ok, and that your husband got through the treadmill test successfully. Those 3 hours and 3000 Rupees were the best investment for his health.

Well, there are always individual variations. And one person’s adai could be another person’s peedai!

Dear Tmt VR

Your post #2143

Yenna Mami, Gas Problem "pinnadi" than varum. Munnadi vanthal atharkku veru peryar
- I am reminded of your graphic description of the ' Burping Pundit '.

Teaching music to a young Ms VR [ and a young Ms RR] must've been been strenuous -
especially with two young giggling girls wondering about the 'source of sound'.

I can't believe that he ate Adai every time just before he came to your place

Ha ha, so we are back to your famous 'Apaana Vayu "

Dear Sri. Naina, Greetings.

I refer to your message in post # 2134. Lipids in any form are not desirable. In the case of High Density Lipid ( HDL), there is possibility of that large lipid not sticking to the vessel wall and break in smaller segments and eventually, hopefully gets cleared away. But in the case of Lower Density Lipids (LDL), they are sure to cling to the vessel wall and form a restriction to blood flow.

It is very good to avoid any form of lipids..... if not, good to use it moderation. I quite agree with you.

Cheers!

very well put dear prof :clap2:

Coming back three hours later and 3000 Rs shorter is OK, but how will you evaluate my anxiety not knowing where he went and what had happened in those three long hours???

If a man can become gassy just by drinking water(?)
what will be consequence of eating the dhal-rich-adai???

I use very little oil of course as I have a weak liver
thanks to the severe jaundice I suffered when I was a toddler.

Pinnaadi = later on, in consequence to ...

P.S. He has not carried that much money as the thread mill test was not planned. The kind friendly doctor trusted him and allowed him to pay the money later!

Anyone wondering how a person can develop gas just by drinking water???
yes if he drinks atmospheric air along with the water in gulps, they will form kind of air blocks in between the gulps of water. Right??

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

My doctor aunt is an adai specialist.

She will literally shallow fry the thick batter which can only spread using the hands as no ladle will work on it!

The adais will be made to stand on an edge till the excess oil gets drained!!!

Draining board adai???

Dear Tmt VR

I think the Doctor was just trying to convey to Hubby Ji that he needs long walks.

And it is also good not to walk around with too much money - no fear of getting mugged.

I personally think, you both are getting a bit worked-up about your on-coming trip. Stay
relaxed, Madam. I know, the excitement will be there. Please stay calm Madam, and not
let the sub-conscious undercurrents cause any nervousness.

I am sure you both will have a fine, trouble-free, happy time with kids and G kids.

Bon Voyage

The adai-episode is not new!

It happened months ago!!

You are right. My husband has already become tense and jumpy!

Can you imagine a 70+ old, six footer being jumpy! :llama:

Use your imagination!

I try to keep since hurry, worry and tension will do

more harm than good to me!

Recently, I was told that a person underwent a byepass surgery for the Gastric problems.
In that, it appears that make an arrangement like a tiny pouch within the stomach. He
is allowed to take only a restricted food including liquid diets at any given time, so that
tiny pouch can accommodate that, and also to enable it to get healed while ensuring a
weight loss. In fact, when I heard this, I was worried as to how that man is going to
spend the rest of his life.

Dear A.M.Ji

My sister Mrs. Raji Ram is the ONE who gives public concerts.

She was my veena teacher for about 2 years.

I am only a teacher and not a performing artist.

I stopped teaching also since 2010, since I could not sit on the floor for playing

veena and could shout with the kids at their high pitch in vocal and

as for dancing my gait is my dance now!

I am going mainly to spend some time with my grand kids and help my son and D.I.L

who are both professors in Maths till the baby becomes a little bigger and

more manageable.

I sing, and sing well - ask my audience, they are a wash basin, some taps, a shower,
a WC, a mirror, some clothes to be washed in a bucket and an exhaust fan!

The glazed tiles add to the acoustics with lovely echo effect. And with the backdrop sound
of flowing water [especially immediately after flushing] - ever heard anybody singing
while a tsunami strikes ?

No, I won't send you a recording - that will be infringing on copyright issues.

Dear VR Ji,

I am like you..I am also a bathroom thinker.
When I was a teen I used to keep a pen in the bathroom cos halfway I might want to write down some maths formula I had studied so it would be recapitulation time.
So the walls used to have all maths formulas!!

I like singing in the car..I remember when I travelling to Penang Island during honeymoon.My husband was driving the car.
Journey took some 4 hours and through out the journey I sang bhajans for him and when we reached Penang Island I ended the bhajan singing the General Aarti.

Dear Dr Renu

But I thought you'd be singing 'duets' with your hubby - and some limericks for old time's sake!

You should try singing in the bathroom - it's a great experience, with that ever applauding
audience, that will never go away for a 'commercial break'.

And with the backdrop hustle of flowing water, it's simply wonderful - much better than
the drab drool of a car engine, whose driver must've been longing to jump out and run away!

Try it - I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Oh! If you'd done maths elsewhere, you might've
ended-up an Engineer !

Yay Yem
