Food poisoning has become a common health hazard during summer season. Know the ways to protect yourself from this disease, as shared by an expert. 

Editorji Exclusive: Increasing cases of food poisoning during summers and ways to prevent it 

More people are getting prone to food poisoning due to eating food or drinking water contaminated with infectious organisms including bacteria, viruses, parasites, and their toxins. Symptoms can start within 2-3 hours or can last up to 5-7 days. Symptoms include vomiting, loose stools, fever, stomach pain, and sometimes bloody diarrhoea. &nbsp;&nbsp;
As water is a vital component of our body, it is necessary to maintain fluid balance in the body. People generally avoid food and water during loose motion thinking it may increase the frequency of diarrhoea. This mistake makes them suffer from dehydration leading to excessive thirst, dry mouth, little or no urination, severe weakness, dizziness, and light-headedness.&nbsp;
During dehydration, the foremost importance is to hydrate the body by drinking plenty of fluids like water, ORS, buttermilk, and coconut water. It compensates for the amount of water lost from the body and reduces the risk of hospitalisation. Consume a more easily digestible curd-based diet as it replenishes the lost probiotics in the gut during diarrhoea.&nbsp;
Microbial contamination can be prevented by maintaining proper hygiene. Here are a few ways to follow:&nbsp;
Keep your hands free of bacteria by washing with soap before and after preparing and eating food.&nbsp;&nbsp; Clean the utensils with proper detergents and soap.&nbsp;&nbsp; Heat and cook food at a proper temperature that resists bacterial growth.&nbsp;&nbsp; Avoid flash frying.&nbsp;&nbsp; Refrigerate perishable foods promptly within 2 hours of preparing.&nbsp;&nbsp; Drink adequately boiled or UV-treated water.&nbsp;&nbsp; Avoid outside and street foods prepared in an exposed environment making your food more prone to microbial contamination.&nbsp;&nbsp; Discard any food that was not properly stored or doubtful about its hygiene during preparation.&nbsp;
As prevention is always better than cure, maintain proper hygiene and avoid harmful effects of microorganisms on your body. Eat healthily and stay healthy. Keep yourself hydrated throughout summer and wash out toxins from your body, leading an active and energetic life away from diseases.&nbsp;

Since early 2020, approximately 3.5 crore cases and 4.6 lakh deaths have been reported in India. For several weeks more than 400,000 individuals tested positive and more than 4,000 people died daily at the peak of the second wave. As with everywhere, these figures are almost certainly underestimated.
The crisis is also a reminder of several hard truths about public health in India. Access to COVID-19 data and transparent decision making have proved barriers to an effective epidemic response in the country. The public health system has historically been woefully underfunded&mdash;government spending on health has been less than 1% of gross domestic product (GDP) and only increased marginally in recent years.
This town hall discussion is about how to re-imagine national and global health priorities toward protecting the health and preventing future health crises.
Joining the discussion are M.R. Rangaswamy, Founder, Indiaspora, Dr&nbsp;Devi Shetty, Founder &amp; Chairman, Narayana&nbsp;Health, Dr Amita&nbsp;Gupta, Co-Chair, John Hopkins India Institute, Dr Rajendra&nbsp;S Shukla, Sr. Policy Advisory, India Primary Health Support Initiative, JHU, Dr Ramanan&nbsp;Laxminarayan, Founder, Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics &amp; Policy.

If you&rsquo;ve been trying to eat up to strengthen your immune system, here&rsquo;s one thing that you would probably benefit&nbsp;more&nbsp;by eating less.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Researchers have found that the amount of salt you eat can impact your immunity.&nbsp;Publishing&nbsp;in the journal&nbsp;Circulation, the team found that a high intake of salt can disrupt&nbsp;mitochondrial respiration and suppress immunity.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Sodium can accumulate at inflammation sites in the body and affect the functioning of innate and adaptive immune cells, found the team.&nbsp;So, the less you reach for the salt shaker, the better it is for your health. In fact, salt also raises blood pressure and thereby increases the risk of heart attack or stroke.&nbsp;
So how much is too much? According to researchers from the study, &lsquo;adults are recommended to limit their daily intake to five or six grams at most. The calculation includes the salt that is hidden in processed foods.&rsquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;
