We surely love rainy season for it relives us from the months of scorching heat, but it also brings diseases like cold, cough, indigestion, malaria, dysentery, food poisoning etc. It is important to eat right and boost our metabolism and immunity level. Due to the increasing humidity in the atmosphere and the dull weather we are mostly confined to our home. This affects our digestive system as we are not much active.

So what are the foods that would give our system protection?

1. Eat fresh foods. Fresh produce loaded with Vitamin C, for example Amlas, Oranges, Lemon, Broccoli, Strawberries, tomatoes etc. acts as antioxidants that boost our immunity.
