Indian wrestling star and actor Sangram Singh took center stage at a Mumbai event to spotlight the growing menace of chemical pesticides in everyday produce. Partnering with Gujarat’s Shailesh Jaria, a dedicated farmer-businessman, the duo made a compelling case for embracing organic agriculture to combat health crises.
Singh painted a vivid picture of lost traditions: kids devouring tree-ripened fruits and farm-fresh veggies. Today, he noted, city dwellers are cut off from these treasures, leading to nutrient-deficient diets. ‘Organic foods are key to sustained vitality and disease prevention,’ he asserted, stressing their superiority for fitness enthusiasts like himself.
The wrestler called on everyone to revamp their plates with wholesome, untainted ingredients. Jaria delved into the science, linking pesticide-heavy foods to epidemics of chronic ailments including cancer and cardiovascular issues.
Advocating for bio-fertilizers and time-tested techniques, Jaria argued they maintain soil health while delivering safe eats. His vision: empower farmers to go organic, securing a healthier tomorrow.
On a high note, Singh announced his next challenge – a high-stakes MMA fight in Argentina’s Samurai Fight League on April 5, facing off against a top French contender, fueled by his organic lifestyle.
