    SHOCKING TRUTH about India's Dairy Industry featuring Sunayana Sibal | Doctor vs Internet

    Most of us grew up believing two things about milk. That it is safe. And that boiling makes it safer. Sunayana Sibal spent years walking through Delhi's dairy colonies with a camera, documenting what happens before that milk reaches your cup. Cattle milked in open sewage drains. Illegal oxytocin injected twice a day. Feed made from old bread, chips, and plastic waste. What she found was not an exception. It was the system. As Director of Policy at the Animal Public Policy Foundation, she took her findings to High Courts, food safety regulators, and drug enforcement agencies. Progress has been slow. The milk keeps flowing. In this video you will get to know: Why nearly half of India's dairy cattle are producing mastitis-infected milk and what that means for every cup of chai your family drinks Why up to 50 percent of milk samples in Delhi fail the aflatoxin test for cancer-causing toxins that boiling cannot destroy How illegal oxytocin is being injected into cattle across every state and how it has been traced all the way to trafficking networks Why antibiotic overuse in dairy farming is quietly building resistance inside your body without you knowing The truth about A2 milk, where the claim actually originated, and why European food safety authorities have rejected it The five things you should check before trusting any dairy source near your home Sunayana Sibal is not anti-milk. She is pro-truth. And the truth about where India's milk comes from is something every family deserves to hear. Produced by Taniya Dutta Sound mixed by Aman Pal
