The wet season (sometimes called the rainy season or monsoon season) is the time of year when most of a region’s average annual rainfall occurs. This season, according to findings, can take a toll on your health if you are not adequately prepared.

In this article, GWG.ng highlights some things to do for your health during the rainy season:

Keep your environment clean

The rainy season can lead to waterlogging and stagnant water, which can become a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other insects.

Make sure to keep your surroundings clean and dry to prevent the breeding of insects and the spread of diseases.

Stay hydrated always

The rainy season can make you feel cold and dehydrated, and it is essential to keep yourself hydrated.

Drinking at least eight glasses of water a day can help flush out toxins from your body and prevent waterborne diseases.

You can also opt for warm beverages such as herbal tea, soups, and broths to keep yourself warm and hydrated.
