Most of us have heard that one should eat according to the changing seasons and avoid unhealthy foods, but very few people are aware of the truth. Summer season has arrived. The following article is a service for the readers regarding which foods should be avoided during this time.
1) Coffee
It is natural to feel more thirsty in summer but it is very important to maintain the water level in the body and excessive consumption of coffee can hinder this. So avoid coffee or reduce its consumption altogether.
2) Pickles
Pickles are high in sodium, which can lead to dehydration. Apart from this, indigestion can also occur if pickles are used excessively in summer.

Although nuts are rich in nutrients, they are also warming foods. Its excessive use in cold regions is beneficial for health, however, its use in hot weather can prove harmful and cause irritation and fatigue.

Chillies, especially red chillies, are an essential ingredient in spicy dishes. These peppers contain a compound called capsaicin, which can cause body heat, dehydration, excessive sweating, and even sickness.

When the external temperature is high, eating meat increases the risk of cancer and also causes heat in the body.

All fried foods including samosas, chaat and french fries are dehydrating. And not only this, but also makes digestion difficult.
8) Soda
In summer, like milkshakes, soda is also a favorite drink of many people, but while this soda is full of sugar and other harmful ingredients, it is also a cause of dehydration in the body.

Consuming too much salt causes the body to absorb water and cause dehydration. As a result, the affected person may feel lethargic, restless and tired.
