Cruciferous vegetables like cabbage and lettuce or cauliflower and broccoli retain moisture and become breeding grounds for bacteria. If not cleaned thoroughly it can lead to stomach infection.
During the monsoons, avoid eating food that has been kept in the open for 3-4 hours. Due to extreme humidity in the atmosphere, there is a risk of bacterial growth in the foods.
During this season, one should avoid meat, sliced fruits and foods kept outside in the open. Flies can contaminate the food by sitting on these, along with the dirt blowing in. The risk of bacterial infection will also increase.
Street foods should be completely avoided during the rainy season. There is always a risk of stomach infection and getting diarrhoea or food poisoning. Also, avoid too much oily and deep-fried foods.
