  • Eat Seasonal Foods

    The Health Ministry recommends eating seasonal foods and fresh vegetables during summer to promote healthy digestion and to avoid gut problems.
  • Carry Light Food Items

    As per the USDA, heat in the air leads to rapid bacterial growth. Hence, carry light foods, whole fruits, etc. to fight the heatwave.
  • Homemade Coolers

    Drinks like coffee and tea may lead to extreme fluid loss in the body. Instead, consume cooling drinks like nimbu paani, chaas, etc., for electrolyte balance in the body.
