Monsoons are here and that means the pitter-patter of rain, clean air, vibrant greenery and of course, a great many insta-worthy moments. While the rainy season brings respite from the scorching heat, it also brings with it a series of infections and the contagious flu, and that&rsquo;s not what you want this time of year to bring you. Hence, it is important for us to avoid doing certain things, and even eating certain foods, in order to stay healthy during this time. &nbsp;
We&rsquo;ve rounded up a list of foods for you to avoid this monsoon, to help you make the most of this wonderful time of year.
Deep-fried food
Pakoras with tea is an irresistible snack during monsoons. However, they are deep-fried which is not-so-healthy even if they are&nbsp;made at home. Humidity levels are generally high during the rainy season because of which the body&rsquo;s digestive ability is reduced. Therefore, consuming fried and oily foods can lead to an upset stomach, bloating&nbsp;and indigestion.
Sour foods
Sour foods like tamarind, chutneys and pickles can cause water retention in the body which can make you fall sick in the rainy season. Since,&nbsp;pakoras and other oily foods are out of the picture, it shouldn&rsquo;t be too hard to let go of the chutneys as well.
Seafood
Monsoon is the breeding season for fish and other sea creatures. Many fish contain eggs inside their bodies which when consumed can cause stomach infection or severe food poisoning. So it's better to steer clear of seafood during the rainy season.
Green leafy vegetables
Green leafy vegetables, which is otherwise an extremely healthy food option, should be avoided in the monsoon as much as possible. The humidity in the weather and the natural dampness in the vegetables make it the perfect breeding ground for germs. Put lettuce, spinach, cabbage and cauliflower on the 'not to consume list' for this season.
Mushrooms
Mushrooms generally grow in damp areas and should be cleaned properly before consumption. During the rainy season, the risk of bacterial infections is way higher. Therefore, to be on the safer side, it is recommended not to eat mushrooms during the monsoon.

Food items that we should say a big no-no to during the monsoon season

High humidity during monsoons, poses a problem, especially for those with oily or combination skins. Oily skin looks even more oily and dull, due to sweat and oil secretions being deposited on the skin. A sweaty skin also attracts dirt and pollutants from the air.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Deep pore cleansing with facial scrubs is important, in order to keep the pores free of clogged oil and dirt. So, one should use a facial scrub twice a week. Apply it on the face and rub gently on the skin, using a circular motion. Then, rinse off with plenty of plain water. &nbsp;

Do not apply scrub on pimples, acne or rash. Wash the face several times with plain water. Night time cleansing is a must, to remove the impurities that have collected on the skin during the day.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; A flower-based skin tonic or freshener is a boon in humid weather. Rose water is a natural toner. Keep skin tonic or rose water in the fridge and wipe the face with it, using cotton wool pads. It is extremely refreshing and also tightens the pores.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; In humid weather, the skin can be prone to blackheads and eruptions. A facial scrub should be used on the blackhead-prone areas. The scrub can also be applied on open pores and the marks left by acne. Mix oats with egg white and apply on the face twice a week. &nbsp;

Wipe with a skin tonic, or buy an astringent lotion and mix it with rose water in equal quantities. Keep in an airtight bottle in the fridge. Add a little rose water to sandalwood paste and apply on the rashes and eruptions. A handful of neem leaves can be simmered on very low fire in 4 cups of water for one hour. Leave it overnight. Strain and use the water to wash the face, the next morning. Make a paste of the leaves and apply on the affected areas.&nbsp; &nbsp; If your skin is very oily, multani mitti may help to reduce the oiliness. Mix it with rose water into a paste and apply on the face, washing it off when it dries. For a monsoon face mask, mix 3 teaspoons oatmeal with egg white and one teaspoon each of honey and curd. If you don&rsquo;t want to use egg white, add rose water or orange juice. Apply it on the face and wash it off after half an hour. Use it twice a week. Dry and powdered lemon and orange peels can also be added to face packs.&nbsp; &nbsp; During the monsoons, the body loses fluids through sweat. Remember to drink more fluids to keep the system flushed. Drink plenty of lemonade and fresh fruit juices, apart from water. Avoid heavy starchy meals. Include salads, fruits, sprouts and yoghurt in your daily diet. &nbsp; &nbsp; Inputs by Shahnaz Husain, beauty and skincare expert

Editorji Exclusive: A guide to get healthy and glowing skin during monsoons 

The monsoon season can intensify skin problems and make your skin look dull and sticky. Check out some expert ways to get healthy skin during the rainy season.&nbsp;

As seasons change, it&rsquo;s important to amend your skincare routines. This is much more essential during monsoons as the humidity level rises and weather gets unpredictable, bringing its share of challenges for the skin.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Varsha Ritu, according to Ayurveda disturbs the balance of Vata. Although the environment outside is damp and humid, the body compensates for this by an increase in air energy. Monsoon can make the skin sensitive and act out in extremes. Extreme oiliness or dryness depending on the other dosha dominance, a simple shift in daily routine can help you tide the monsoon effortlessly&nbsp;
Here are the most important skin care tips that you should follow to maintain your skin health during the monsoons:&nbsp;

1. Cleanse your skin&nbsp;&nbsp;
Any skincare routine begins with the cleansing step. During monsoon season, your skin tends to become oily and sticky. It is recommended to use a mild and oil-free cleanser twice or thrice a day to clear the accumulated sebum, sweat, and dirt from your facial pores.&nbsp;&nbsp;
2. Use a toner&nbsp;
Use a toner to deal with rising humidity levels as the next step of your monsoon skincare routine. Toners help to maintain the optimum sebum levels in the skin while providing deeper cleansing to the skin pores. Natural toners containing ingredients such as rose water, mint, camphor, lemon, etc. can be a great choice for monsoon.&nbsp;
3. Exfoliate the skin&nbsp;
Exfoliating with natural scrubs helps to eliminate the dead skin and improves the absorption capacity of the skin. It is an important step in the skincare routine to prevent acne breakouts. However, exfoliate the skin only once a week if you have dry skin and twice or thrice a week if you have oily skin.&nbsp;&nbsp;
4. Moisturize well&nbsp;&nbsp;
No matter how your skin behaves during monsoon, never skip moisturizing it. Moisturizers help to keep your skin hydrated throughout the day while protecting it from pollutants. Especially, if you have dry skin, apply a light, hydrating, lotion-based moisturizer twice a day generously. You can opt for a lightweight, gel-based moisturizer if you have oily skin. Try to avoid heavy, cream-based moisturizers during the monsoon season.&nbsp;&nbsp;
5. Don't skip sunscreen&nbsp;
Never skip applying sunscreens even on rainy days, as it protects your skin from free radical damage and UV radiation. However, it is recommended to pick a lightweight, gel-based sunscreen that is not heavy on the skin.&nbsp;&nbsp;
6. Minimize makeup&nbsp;
While there is increased humidity in the surroundings during monsoon, your skin needs to breathe. Layering your skin with heavy makeup products may lead to clogging of pores, resulting in acne. Hence, it is recommended to apply minimal makeup while using good quality and non-comedogenic products during the rainy season.&nbsp;&nbsp;

7. Avoid getting drenched in rain&nbsp;
Increased humidity in this season is the perfect environment for the growth of microbes. When your skin gets drenched in the rain, it encourages microbial activity in the skin, which may result in different fungal infections, and acne breakouts.&nbsp;
8. Keep your skin dry&nbsp;
During monsoon, the humidity in the air may cause dampness in certain regions of your body. This may invite certain types of fungal infections in the fold of the skin. To prevent it, you can rely on anti-fungal powders and pat dry those regions frequently using tissue.&nbsp;&nbsp;
9. Try Ayurvedic masks&nbsp;
Here is a DIY Ayurvedic mask that will help to maintain your facial skin health during monsoon:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Mix coconut oil, rose water, and freshly made cucumber juice in equal amounts. Use this mixture to massage your skin twice or thrice a week to protect your skin during monsoons.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Regardless of your skin type, following a proper skin care regimen that is created for your skin type during the monsoon is very important.&nbsp;
