Eating healthy is very important during Monsoon when one is prone to the many diseases that the season brings along with it. Here is a list of healthy foods that you must include in your daily diet during Monsoon.
 
Choose a healthy cup of soup instead of the road side noodles. Not only are soups a great way to get nutrition from vegetables, but they are also a way to let you stay away from flu. Instead of drinking those ready to eat soups, you could make some at home to get some dose of good health.
 
No matter what season it is, including fruits in your daily diet is a must. During Monsoon, it becomes all the more important to ensure you are eating enough fruits. Some fruits which are rich in nutrients and only available during Monsoon are Jamun, cherries and peaches. However, make sure you wash them well before it.
 
To ensure that your digestive system works fine during the season of rain, you can include cumin seeds and fenugreek in your diet. These magical herbs help you in digestion and lets you stay away from all those annoying digestive issues.
 
Drink herbal tea at least once a day. During Monsoon, whenever you feel that you could catch a flu, make yourself a cup of hot herbal tea.
 
Add a few garlic cloves in your soups, and curries to help you stay fit and give you the ability to fight viral infections.
 
Turmeric works wonders in improving your immunity keeping the diseases at bay. Turmeric is well known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Try including it in your food, and you can even add it with hot milk and drink every night.
