5 Simple Monsoon Health Tips To Stay Healthy. The showers bring with them much-needed relief from the scorching heat, but that doesn’t mean it’s the end of your problems. Yes, the season brings its own host of problems, which is why you need to be armed with monsoon health tips to stay on top of the game.
1. Focus On Your Diet
The above infographic lists some dietary changes that you can make during monsoon for your health. Read on for some extra points.
- Increase Vitamin C Intake: Bacterial and viral infections, and allergic reactions are most rampant in monsoon. To combat these, increase your immunity by simply upping your intake of vitamin C. Consult your doctor and take a supplement, or just add sprouts, oranges, and green vegetables to your daily diet.
- Increase Probiotic Intake: Probiotics are nothing but microorganisms that support your health. So, increase your intake of yoghurt and buttermilk to improve gut health and boost nutrient absorption.
- Drink Safe Water: Be it at home or outside, make sure the water you drink is purified to avoid water-borne illnesses. Avoid drinking water or beverages at places where hygiene is compromised. Carry your own water if you’re heading out.
- Avoid Junk Food: Junk food is laden with calories, so don’t overdo it. If you feel like having fried foods, opt for grilled instead. Avoid eating out at places where the food might have been sitting out for a long.
- Care For Your Fruits And Vegetables: Wash fresh fruits and vegetables thoroughly before consuming them.
2. Exercise Regularly
Exercise is a must for overall health. In monsoon, exercising regularly will keep your body prepared to fight off infections. Also, if you happen to indulge in fried foods, working out will help you burn the extra calories. Another benefit is that exercising boosts mood; so if you feel down in the dumps this season, you know exactly what to do!
3. Care For Your Nails
Hand hygiene is of utmost importance, more so in the monsoon. Make sure you keep your nails clipped short and scrub underneath them thoroughly every day to keep germs and grime from accumulating. Otherwise, you’ll end up transferring them to your stomach while eating, leading to health problems.
4. Protect Yourself Against The Allergens
If you know you have an allergy to pollen, mold, or other allergens, always keep your allergy medicine with you. Minimise reactions by wearing a face mask when you step out.
5. Say No To Wet Shoes
Avoid wearing closed-toe shoes in the monsoon as keeping feet packed in sweat and humidity can lead to fungal infections. If you do wear shoes, allow them to breathe between wears, alternating with other shoes or sandals.
Tip: If you happen to get your shoes drenched in the rain, leave them to dry on their own. Once the water seems to have drained out, you can stuff newspaper inside to help draw moisture out.
