A major health scare has emerged in Maharashtra after 18 women in Nagpur developed severe kidney problems linked to the prolonged use of skin-lightening creams. The medical pattern came to light over a two-year observation period, revealing that all 18 patients shared one common factor: the use of a skin-lightening product called Goree Beauty Cream. Following laboratory testing, the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) found that the product contained toxic mercury levels approximately 752 times higher than the legally permitted limit.
Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects multiple organs when blood sugar levels remain uncontrolled for long periods. Among the organs most vulnerable to damage are the kidneys, which work continuously to filter waste and excess fluids from the body. High blood sugar can gradually damage the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys, increasing the risk of diabetic kidney disease.
