The first showers of monsoon bring relief to everyone after the scorching heat, but this pleasant weather also brings with it many diseases and health hazards. Due to increase in humidity in the environment during rainy days, bacteria and fungus start growing rapidly, due to which our digestion power (metabolism) becomes very weak. In such a situation, even a little carelessness in eating habits can create such a ‘ball of fire’ of gas, indigestion and burning sensation in your stomach that can take you straight to the hospital. Health experts and dietitians have clearly warned that you should completely stay away from certain food items for the next 2 months, so that you can enjoy this monsoon season without falling ill.
Green leafy vegetables can be the biggest cause of stomach infection
Green leafy vegetables are generally considered a boon for health, but during the rainy season they can prove to be the biggest villain. Small insects and their eggs are hidden between the leaves of vegetables like spinach, cabbage, fenugreek and broccoli, which are not easily cleaned even by normal washing. Apart from this, due to contact with dirty monsoon water, dangerous bacteria like Salmonella and E-coli grow in them. Consuming these vegetables increases the risk of stomach cramps, diarrhea and food poisoning manifold, so it is better to avoid them for the next few weeks.
Say no to fried foods and roadside street food
As soon as it rains, everyone starts feeling like eating hot pakodas, samosas and chaat-pakodas. But do you know how harmful this taste is for your stomach? Street food sold on roadsides during the rainy season lacks hygiene, and the oil and water used there may be contaminated. Since our digestion process is already slow during monsoon, the stomach has to work harder to digest very oily and heavy food, resulting in sour belching, heartburn and severe acidity.
Seafood and non-veg lovers should be careful, the risk of diseases may increase.
If you are fond of eating sea food or non-veg, then these two months of rain are a testing time for you. Monsoon season is the breeding season for fishes and other aquatic creatures. During this period, there is not only a risk of water-borne diseases by eating sea food, but due to the quick spoilage of meat, the possibility of stomach infection is also at its peak. Even in Ayurveda, it is advised to eat completely satvik and light food in this season so that the body’s defects remain balanced and there is no heat or burning sensation in the stomach.
Doctors issued strict health alert from Lucknow-Delhi to Mumbai

In view of the waterlogged areas and humid weather, local health departments have issued strict instructions to citizens to drink boiled water and eat fresh food. Doctors clearly say that in this season do not touch raw salad and pre-cut fruits, because the speed of infection spread in these is the fastest.
