During the monsoon, opt for warm, freshly prepared, home-cooked meals that are low in fat and spices. Locally grown seasonal vegetables are a great choice as they are fresh, nutritious, and flavourful. Fruits are another excellent addition, providing essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Fermented foods like idlis, dosas, and yoghurt are beneficial for gut health, which plays a key role in overall well-being.
