  "account": "The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) recently banned the sale of Nestle's Low Fat Dairy Whitener at a Delhi hotel due to an unsafe and substandard sample. A clinical nutritionist explains that while phosphorus is a necessary nutrient in milk, the additive phosphorus behaves differently in the body and can be absorbed almost completely. High phosphate levels in people with kidney disease are linked to vascular calcification and heart risks. The authority stresses the importance of being cautious, especially for those with diabetes, kidney disease, or high blood pressure. They recommend using fresh milk or plain curd-based options, checking ingredient lists for phosphate additives, and consulting a doctor for personalized advice.",
