Rainy Season Gut Guide: Tips for a Strong and Resilient Digestive Health The rainy season brings several atmospheric changes that can significantly impact our health, specially our gut health. The gut, also known as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, plays a vital role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function. During the rainy season, we face various challenges like waterborne infections, altered eating habits, and increased humidity, all of which can affect our gut health. In this blog, we will delve into the evidence-based strategies to maintain a healthy gut during the rainy season. Embrace a Diverse and Fiber-Rich Diet : A well-balanced and diverse diet is the cornerstone of good gut health. During the rainy season, focus on consuming a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. These foods are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, which act as prebiotics, supporting the growth and activity of beneficial gut bacteria. Hydrate with Safe and Clean Water: During the rainy season, waterborne infections become more prevalent. Ensure you drink safe and clean water to protect your gut from harmful pathogens. Boil or filter drinking water to eliminate potential contaminants. Avoid consuming raw or uncooked food that may have been exposed to contaminated water. Practice Excellent Food Hygiene: The rainy season creates a humid environment that fosters the growth of bacteria and molds. Proper food hygiene is essential to prevent food borne illnesses. Thoroughly wash fruits and vegetables before consumption, cook food thoroughly to eliminate pathogens, and store food properly to avoid bacterial growth. Boost Your Gut with Probiotics: Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria that can positively influence gut health. During the rainy season, consider incorporating probiotic-rich foods like yogurt, fermented pickles, idli, dosa, dhokla, kanji into your diet. Probiotics can help maintain the balance of gut flora and support a healthy digestive system. Manage Stress Levels: The rainy season might lead to altered daily routines, limited outdoor activities, and increased humidity, which can elevate stress levels. Chronic stress can adversely impact gut health by disrupting the balance of gut bacteria and motility. Engage in stress-reducing activities such as - Dr Harsha Lokare Research Reference: Hill, C., Guarner, F., Reid, G., Gibson, G. R., Merenstein, D. J., Pot, B., ... & Sanders, M. E. (2014).

💫A child forms his or her self concept largely based on the way their parents perceived them and the feedback given by parents.
Young minds are vulnerable.
Make sure you speak positive encouraging words to your child and appreciate them which will lay the foundation of their self concept and the standards they set for themselves in their lives-be it personal or professional.
Still completely believe in this.
No one is going to magically fix your life or make you happy.
You have to take the responsibility for your life and happiness!
Mental health during pregnancy matters!
Pregnancy is the most life-changing experience for a woman
She experiences changes in all the aspects of her life- be it personal professional or health.
It’s only fair to allow a woman to be herself and express herself freely during this phase.
The key is to encourage her to be happy, not pressurize.

Eating disorders and recovery techniques explained
How to know if you have personal poor boundaries:
- Apologising even when it is not your mistake just to keep peace
- Attaching too much importance and forming your self concept on the opinion of others
- Feeling guilty about taking time out for yourself or making yourself a priority
- Avoiding confrontation
- Constantly trying to please others for a fear of letting them down
It’s perfectly okay rather it’s a necessity to take a stand for yourself and have personal boundaries for the sake of your own mental health and well being.

If you’re fit or lean people tend to assume that you have some sort of a genetic advantage that they don’t!
And you get away with eating anything without gaining any weight!
Several people love to sympathise with themselves and hold the environment responsible in some ways or the other to make themselves feel better.
Others can’t help but judge.
Before you credit someone’s fitness to genetics-give this simple thing a thought: It takes hard work consistency and discipline to even consistently maintain anything in life .
Consistency is the key not genetics!

🧠A woman expressing her emotions, being assertive or having an opinion doesn’t equate to hysteria!
😣Women’s emotions are often dismissed as mood swings/hysteria/hormonal imbalances.
❤️We must stop labelling and judging women and instead offer them a judgement free accepting environment.
