My interaction with Dr J V Narlikar

I first encountered the name of Dr. Jayant Vishnu Narlikar in the 1970s, while attending Netarhat School. My geometry teacher, Shri Mangal Deo Pande, would speak with immense pride about Dr. Narlikar’s globally recognized research. Interestingly, Dr. Narlikar’s father had been Shri Pande’s own teacher at BHU, Varanasi. At the time, Dr. Narlikar was pursuing his PhD with Dr. Fred Hoyle in Cambridge, and his work on the Steady State Model of the universe, a compelling alternative to the prevailing Big Bang theory, was a leading area of research.

6 Years at D Y Patil International University, Akurdi, Pune(DYPIU)

In 6 years of its existence , DYPIU has been trendsetter in many ways for the whole country!

I completed my 5 years tenure at TIFAC on April 24, 2018. During farewell, my colleagues asked me what was my next plan. To keep suspense about my plans, I mentioned that I have 3 things in mind : (1) To catch up on sleep (2) To spend time with my grandson (who was about 5 months old at that time!) (3) To write a book.
However from TIFAC, I directly went to airport and took a flight to Pune in the evening. Next day (April 25, 2018), a press conference was organized to announce the starting of D Y Patil International Univ at Akurdi campus in Pune. I took a photo of nameplate and shared with my TIFAC colleagues about my next engagement and broke the suspense!

Magnesium, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 – role in optimal health

Understanding the synergy between magnesium and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is crucial for bone health, overall well-being, and disease prevention.

Normally I do not reproduce posts by any other authors. But this post was so close to my own understanding and critical for human health that I decided to reproduce it. See some of my earlier posts related to vitamin and minerals:
Hope for Psoriasis (and possibly other skins issues e.g. Vitiligo/Leucoderma, Eczema etc)?
Making Magnesium Oil (Helps with Sleep, Skin, Hair, Heart, Bone, Stress … issues)
Miracle Recovery For A Young Parkinsonism Patient!

Reference – The Essential Synergy Between Magnesium and Vitamin D3 for Optimal Health

Understanding the synergy between magnesium and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is crucial for bone health, overall well-being, and disease prevention. Magnesium is pivotal in converting vitamin D into its active form, calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D]), vital for calcium absorption in the body. Magnesium is essential for the activity of enzymes involved in the metabolism of vitamin D, serving as a necessary cofactor for the biochemical reactions in the liver and kidneys. This conversion significantly influences bone health and helps prevent osteoporosis and osteopenia.
