Want to Stay Fit This Monsoon? You May Want to Turn to Ayurveda

The monsoon may be the ideal time for a complete body detox through Panchakarma.

The monsoon may be your favourite time of the year, but don’t forget that the rains also usher in a number of contagious diseases – dengue, malaria, diarrhoea and chikungunya, to name a few.

Ayurveda indicates that monsoons aggravate pitta (the fire element in the body) which makes the digestion sluggish. The humidity in the air adds to health problems like indigestion, infections, hair loss and skin ailments.
