Sonam Kapoor’s advice against giving honey to newborns reflects a well-established medical guideline aimed at safeguarding infant health. Honey should never be given to infants under one year of age due to the risk of botulism, a potentially life-threatening illness caused by a bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. These bacteria produce spores that can survive in honey and release a toxin in the intestines of young babies, whose immune and digestive systems are still developing. The consequences can be severe, with symptoms like muscle weakness, breathing difficulties, and even paralysis in extreme cases. By sharing this advice, Sonam was contributing to public awareness about an essential aspect of infant care.
Unfortunately, her statement was met with ridicule and trolling from some quarters, especially by those eager to critique her as a public figure associated with progressive and outspoken viewpoints. When trolls dismiss or distort genuine health advice, they risk promoting misinformation that can have real, harmful consequences, particularly when it concerns something as critical as infant safety. This tendency to undermine credible health guidance in the name of online banter or political agendas highlights a worrying trend: the blurring of lines between lighthearted trolling and irresponsible dissemination of misleading information. In this case, trolling not only disrespects the person providing the message but also trivializes an important health issue.
