MONSOON
The monsoon
season is a crucial time to practice good health habits because of the
increased humidity and rainfall that are brought on by this time of year, which
favors the development of bacteria and viruses. Here are some suggestions to
keep you healthy throughout the monsoon:-
a.
Increase
Immunity: To support your immune system, eat healthy and balanced diet, that is
high in vitamins and minerals. Citrus fruits, garlic, ginger, and turmeric are
some foods that can help boost immunity.
b.
Don't hesitate
to get medical help if you become ill. A prompt diagnosis and course of
treatment can reduce risks and hasten your recovery.
c.
Watch out for
Allergies: Allergies can be triggered by the monsoon's humidity. If you are
prone to allergies, take the necessary precautions and visit your doctor if
symptoms worsen.
d.
Avoid walking
through or playing in stagnant water: Stagnant water can contain harmful
bacteria that can cause infections or skin issues. Avoid walking through or
playing in it.
e.
Exercise frequently:
Continue your regular exercise schedule. Consider indoor exercises like yoga or
at-home workouts if it's difficult to exercise outside because of rain.
f.
Use mosquito
repellents: The monsoon season is frequently accompanied by an increase in
mosquito activity. To protect yourself from mosquito-borne illnesses like
dengue and malaria, use repellents, mosquito nets, and long-sleeved clothing.
