The benefits of drinking water are relentless. However, it is important to know the exact temperature of the water that needs to be drunk during different seasons. During monsoon it is important to drink water in order to stay well hydrated.

Boiling the water will kill any germ that could have possibly manifested due to the heavy rainfall outside. Moreover, drinking lukewarm water will flush out all the toxins from the body and keep the digestive system and the body happy.

Seasonal Fruits

Fruits are another must have food habit in our everyday diet. Some fruits are available and are good for each and every season whereas some fruits are seasonal. Seasonal fruits must be included in our everyday diet to help maintain our health and to keep the immune system strong.

Some of the seasonal fruits that are available in the market only during monsoon and are very helpful are pomegranates, bananas, peaches, pears, and avocados. These fruits are not only delicious but also extremely healthy.

Avoid Raw Veggies and Raw Sprouts

It is better to avoid any raw veggies and raw sprouts as they carry germs and harmful bacteria in them during the rainy season. Even before cooking the Green veggies or the healthy sprouts, make sure to wash them thoroughly to wash off as many germs as possible.

Avoid Junks

During the monsoon, make sure to stay away from any kind of junk food, no matter how tempting they get. Ladies, I know this is going to be hard for you but stay away from pani puri as well, as they are another problem causing, tempting junk food.
