Summer Care Tips: Side Effects of Overeating Mangoes, Cold Drinks and Sugary Foods in Hotter Months

Summer Care Tips: Dietary habits frequently fluctuate with the seasons. In this video, certified nutritionist and diet specialist Payal Rangar addressed common concerns about summer foods and their effects on health, digestion, and skin. She emphasised that, while fruits like mangoes are popular, overconsumption can cause heat-related problems such as acne. To avoid blood sugar surges and skin disturbances, she recommended soaking mangoes in water for 2-3 hours before eating and eating them in moderation, especially in the middle of the morning with soaked seeds.

Foods to Avoid in Summer Season

Payal also emphasised the dangers of overconsuming sugary foods, fizzy beverages, alcohol, and deep-fried or spicy dishes during the summer months. These not only cause gastric pain, but they can also aggravate skin conditions such as acne. While the odd indulgence is understandable, she emphasised the necessity of mindful eating and enough water.  Maintaining adequate water intake and avoiding problematic meals are important tactics for maintaining digestive health and good skin during the hot season.
