Blue Baby Syndrome:
High nitrate levels have been found in the groundwater of 440 districts across India, which can cause health issues like blue baby syndrome in infants and are unsafe for drinking.Blue baby syndrome, also called cyanosis, is a condition in babies in which their skin appears blue or purple tinged. The baby takes on a bluish hue because of poorly oxygenated blood.Normally, blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs, where it receives oxygen.The blood is circulated back through the heart and then throughout the body.When there’s a problem with the heart, lungs, or blood, blood may not be oxygenated properly.
