Monsoon Health Tips: Deterioration of health is common in the changing season, but if some precautions are taken, any kind of health-related problems can be avoided. Mostly in the rainy season, the number of patients with common diseases like cold, cough, and fever increases, but sometimes these common diseases also prove to be fatal due to slight negligence. In such a situation, even by making a slight change in food and routine, seasonal diseases can be avoided. Dr. Sanjay Jain, Consultant, Cardiologist, and Diabetologist, Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Indore, is telling ways to avoid seasonal diseases-
This is the reason why seasonal diseases happen.
When there is a change in the weather, the immune system of the body gets affected the most. The immune system is a defense mechanism of our body. When there is a change in the weather, different types of bacteria, viruses, etc. become active according to the temperature, which attacks the body. If the body's immune system is weak during the rainy season, then bacteria easily start weakening the body. This is the reason why doctors give us antibiotics when we are ill. Antibiotics kill the external attack caused by bacteria and viruses on the body. Not only this but due to the accumulation of mud and water around during the rainy season, more mosquitoes of malaria and dengue are produced, due to which we are at greater risk.
Internal and external protection of the body
When the outbreak of seasonal diseases increases, it is very important to protect the body internally and externally. In the rainy season, we should consume such things, which strengthen the immune system of the body. For the external protection of the body, clean clothes should always be worn and a bath should be taken daily. Apart from this, it is necessary to clean the dirt in and around your house. Always keep cleanliness in your house and apply a phenyl mop. Apart from this, for the internal protection of the body, one should refrain from eating street food during the rainy season. A diet rich in protein and fiber should be taken. Consuming too much oil or fatty food should be avoided.
To avoid Seasonal diseases
There are many such things in the kitchen itself, by consuming which we can strengthen our immune system. Vitamin C, Vitamin B12, and Vitamin D, etc. must all be included in our diet daily. A diet rich in Vitamin C helps in strengthening the immune system. For this, consume more and more green vegetables and fruits. In seasonal diseases, the respiratory system is affected the most because it is through this that the body is attacked by bacteria, so steam of hot water must also be taken. In case of severe health, immediately contact the doctor of such a hospital, where the facility of doctors is available round the clock so that proper treatment can be given under the supervision of the doctor.
