* What is the way to prevent diarrhea
Diarrhea is mainly caused by water-borne bacteria. This disease is very debilitating as the body loses water. Saline should also be given if necessary. But how many rules must be followed to stay away from this disease-
▶ According to doctors, this disease can be avoided if it is clean. Keep the kitchen and dining area clean. Use clean water for washing dishes. Use clean water while washing your face.
▶ Clean water should be consumed throughout the year. Do not drink water from any place on the road. Drink bottled or boiled water if necessary. But drink more water.
▶ Do not leave food for too long during hot weather. Eat while hot. When it cools down, reheat it and eat it. Because, if the food is cold, some harmful bacteria will settle in it, which causes problems like diarrhoea.
▶ Avoid street food as much as possible during this time to avoid diarrhea outbreak. Avoid eating foods that are especially oily and spicy. In general, avoid foods that contain sour water or that allow water to go directly into the stomach in the form of soup. It is better not to eat in unclean hotels or restaurants.
▶ It is good to eat fruits in summer. That said, don't go out in hot weather and eat fruits cut from the street. Buy whole fruits, wash them well, but eat them. Drinks like sherbet, ghol, lemon water should not be consumed from unsanitary roadside shops.
