As the monsoons arrive after the long and scorching Indian summer, most of us look forward to the cloudy weather, the cooling showers, the darkening skies, the hot pakoras, soulful music and all the romance and joy of the rains. You can enjoy the monsoons much better if you get better aware of the dangers that lurk behind the cool wet weather. Take a few precautions and you can avoid the infections that can make you ill and miserable during this wonderful season
- Continue drinking plenty of water in this season as it is important to keep your body hydrated every time.
- Wash all the fruits and vegetables, especially the green leafy vegetables and cauliflower as they play a host for worms and larvae and dirt from streets.
- Keep your body warm as it becomes easy for viruses to attack once the body temperature cools down.
- Avoid uncooked fruits and salads in this season as the possibility of getting caught by germs in these kinds of foods is much higher.
- Do not walk barefooted or wear wet shoes in this season specifically suggested for diabetic patients.
- Maintain general hygiene and avoid roadside vendor food as the food easily gets affected with bacteria and fungi.
