This Monsoon Lead a Healthy Life With These Seasonal Fruits

Seasonal fruits provide innumerable health benefits and offer protection against season-specific ailments. Monsoon is the season when one tends to consume oilier and spicier food without realising its ill-effects on our health. With the pandemic it is important to maintain one’s immunity through seasonal changes as well.

According to Experts:

“Monsoon brings multiple infections, allergies, rashes, digestive problems, malaria and other such diseases. In order to prepare your body to fight against such problems, there is a need to consume the right kind of food. Humidity in the air slows down digestion and may even lead to gastrointestinal disorders. Seasonal fruits help aid digestion, metabolism and general health,” explains Rohit Shelatkar, VP at Vitabiotics and Fitness & Nutrition Expert.
