Cricket is a popular sport that is played all over the world. It is a sport that originated in England. The sport is considered to be the game of the rich and privileged. But nowadays it is played by every one, and at all levels. It could be played as a gentle village cricket match, competitive club cricket, county level or played at the national and international levels. The game requires lots of equipment like any other game. There is certain protective equipment that is required to be used while playing the game, like gloves, helmets, thigh pads, arm pads and so on. There is also protective equipment that is required to be worn exclusively by the batsman only. Cricket batting pads are one of them.

Cricket pads provide protection for the player’s legs. While selecting the right kind of batting pads, you should remember that the pads should not only give protection but also the needed comfort. The use of the batting pads protects the knees, shins and the lower thigh part above the knees. They are worn on the legs and they can be referred to as leg guards also.

The pads have three straps to fasten them to the legs of the batsman and these straps are adjustable. The batsman can adjust them according to their comfort level. There is also a special knee roll that is used for providing extra protection to the knees. The batsman can also use extra padding beneath the cricket batting pads, to sustain the impact of the ball.

The very first batting pads that were designed were very heavy. They were made out of foam, cotton and cane wood strips, which all contributed to the extra weight. In the present days, pads are made with strong, durable and ultra light synthetic materials such as PVC. The use of these materials keeps the pads light, and also alleviates fatigue that could be experienced when they are worn for a long time.
The batting pads protect the batsman from any injury to the legs, caused by the ball when it is bowled by the fast bowlers. It is always necessary for the batsman to take the utmost precautions to protect their legs from any damage caused throughout the course of the game.

State of the art leg guards are available in standard and innovative designs. They are mostly made of lightweight materials, which is handy, as they will need to be removed and put back on at various stages of the game. Good quality pads will ensure the batter has free leg movement as well. The kneecap of the pads is shielded with dual density high impact foams that have great absorbing capacities. The knee bolster has air mesh at the contour. The shin is also covered with foam to maximise the flexibility and comfort level. The three vertical bolsters, which are inside the batting pads, provide flexibility and protection. Read more… »

“The FDA’s mission is to promote and protect the public health by helping safe and effective products reach the market in a timely way, and monitoring products for continued safety after they are in use. Our work is a blending of law and science aimed at protecting consumers.” This of course is according to the FDA.

The FDA’s role has clearly changed since big pharmaceutical companies began manufacturing synthetic drugs which Americans have shelled out over a trillion dollars for. These drugs have never cured anything and they never will. All they do is mask symptoms. All of them come with a laundry list of side effects that should scare every thinking person to death. Instead of the FDA protecting the public health by banning these synthetic pills that merely hide symptoms, they blindly say yes to every new pill coming down the pike and rush to foist them on the American citizenry.

Why are these dangerous drugs rubber stamped and approved by the FDA while suppression of inexpensive and very effective natural therapies seems to be their real job? The answer is the more than one trillion dollars that Americans have paid drug companies for these symptom masking pills. That is precisely why the FDA’s mission has changed from protection of the public to protection of the financial interests of pharmaceutical companies.

Synthetic drugs have caused the death of millions of people and will continue to do so in the future. As stated above they have never healed one disease and they never will. Vitamin C is a cure for scurvy and this is universally known, however the FDA won’t let you say this. If the truth be told Vitamin C is probably a cure for many diseases but since it is inexpensive and drug companies don’t stand to make a profit off of it this information is suppressed under penalty of law.

A diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans and seeds, is a health promoting diet and many natural health practitioners have used detoxification and immune system supporting diets to cure heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and countless other infirmities. If drug companies could patent fresh fruit you can bet that the FDA would allow labeling that states that these foods heal disease. Since these billion dollar companies cannot patent an orange, the FDA does not allow statements about the oranges ability to heal.

In this writer’s opinion the FDA no longer serves the public but rather the only entities being served are big pharmaceutical companies. Therefore the FDA is actually causing health problems instead of stopping them. They serve no purpose other than protection of the trillion dollar drug company industry and our tax dollars support this rogue agency. Read more… »
