Monsoon is the season of rejuvenation, a time when we say adieu to the scorching sun and welcome the cool rain that brings a new trigger of enjoyment in everyone. Be it a small ride in the rain or a football match, or just enjoying by simply drenching. Each one of these activities actually does contribute to adverse health effects. Thus here we explain some scenarios to look after during the rainy season.
- Increase your Vitamin C intake.
The rainy season also is a good supplier of Communicable diseases, viral infections, allergies and all different kinds of flu. To withstand and shield this we have to enhance our immune system, especially in the middle of a pandemic. Vitamin C intake improves the immune system, thus it can be consumed as medication or by food. Eating sprouts, fresh green vegetables and citrus fruits also contribute to high immunity levels.
- Eat healthy food.
Eating fresh and healthy food is important in this monsoon season. Thereby we can avoid junk food that has its own share in spreading diseases. Since street food/junk food is often made on the streets, it has often seemed to be unhealthy.
- Avoid stagnant water presence.
Stagnant water often helps in spreading diseases, it can lead to microbial or mosquito infestations. Due to this water bodies should never be allowed to remain stagnant for a long time. There are also chances for your pets to consume water from these sources and get infected. Most sources of contained stagnant water are garden, water collector trey of refrigerator and tubes.
- Iron clothes
Cloths during the monsoon season are too delicate such that molds and fungal infestations will grow on these. The best way to avoid this is to preserve cloths in dry areas also iron the cloths such that moisture presence is controlled.
- Exercise regularly
Workout is very important in this monsoon season. This season we often feel not to leave the bed and take some extra nap time. This lazy habit will eventually end your workout routine. If it’s raining outside better get some workout gear and do some home workouts.
- Take care of your body.
Taking good care of your body is very important especially during the monsoon season. This is to maintain a hygienic environment by washing hands, sanitizing, cutting nails and using disinfectants in bathwater.
