The monsoon season can often bring detrimental effects to you and your loved ones. While many of us might embrace the cooling temperatures, the monsoon rain can often result in viral infections and health issues that affect one’s immunities. Therefore, monsoon care for you and your loved ones are of the utmost priority. Here are some monsoon safety tips to ensure that everyone can stay safe.
Boost Immunity
It is important to boost your immunity levels even before the monsoon season arrives. There is an increased risk of coughs and colds during the monsoon system, given that these conditions commonly target one’s immune system. It is important to boost your immune system through your diet to prevent yourself from being susceptible to these conditions. You can do this by eating more nuts, vegetables, and fruits. These food items can help to boost your immunity to a great level. You can also boost your immunity through other means like exercise, getting sufficient sleep, avoiding smoking and alcohol, as well as minimizing excessive stress on your body.
Drink Warm Water
The monsoon season increases the risk for numerous diseases that thrive in water like cholera, typhoid, etc. Therefore, it is better to take precautions and drink and use warm water instead, as the heat would help to kill off bacteria better than cold water.
Good Hygiene Standards
Hygiene plays a crucial role when applied to the rainy season. Monsoon season increases the risk for contracting dengue, mainly because mosquitoes thrive in wet areas, and the accumulation of water in nooks and crannies can be especially dangerous to your loved one’s health. Wet conditions also encourage the survival of micro-organisms, which can be detrimental to your health as well. Therefore, it is very important to keep your surroundings dry and clean as well as maintain good hygiene standards. On this topic, as part of monsoon care, you could also purchase and utilize mosquito coils, repellents, and nets to repel unwanted insects from your surroundings. It would also be wise to clean off stagnated water from your surroundings, especially in your plants and drainage areas to stop the growth of mosquitoes.
