Certainly! Adopting appropriate dietary habits during the monsoon season can help maintain good health and prevent common seasonal illnesses. Here’s an explanation of the top 10 food habits to consider:

1.nclude Seasonal Fruits:

Seasonal fruits such as apples, pears, pomegranates, and cherries are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. These nutrients help enhance immunity and protect against infections commonly prevalent during the monsoon season.

2.Consume More Vegetables:

Incorporate a variety of vegetables into your diet, including leafy greens like spinach and fenugreek, as well as vegetables like bitter gourd, broccoli, and cauliflower. These vegetables provide essential vitamins and minerals that support overall health and immunity.

3. Stay Hydrated:

Adequate hydration is crucial during the monsoon season. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to flush out toxins and maintain optimal bodily functions. Herbal teas and soups are also beneficial for staying hydrated and warming the body during rainy days.

4.Avoid Street Food:

Minimize the consumption of street food during the monsoon season to reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses. Street food may not always be prepared under hygienic conditions, increasing the likelihood of infections.

5.Cook Thoroughly:

Ensure that all foods, especially meats and seafood, are cooked thoroughly before consumption. Proper cooking kills harmful bacteria and reduces the risk of food poisoning.

6. Include Probiotics:

Probiotic foods such as yogurt, buttermilk, and fermented foods (e.g., idli, dosa) help maintain a healthy gut microbiota. A balanced gut flora supports digestion, nutrient absorption, and strengthens the immune system.

7.Use Fresh Ingredients: Prefer fresh ingredients over preserved or leftover foods. Freshly prepared meals are less likely to harbor harmful bacteria that thrive in humid conditions typical of the monsoon season.

Drink herbal teas like ginger tea, tulsi tea (holy basil), or cinnamon tea. These teas have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help boost immunity and provide relief from seasonal ailments.

9.Avoid Raw Salads:

Minimize the consumption of raw salads during the monsoon season. Opt for lightly cooked or steamed vegetables instead. Raw vegetables may carry contaminants that are more prevalent during the rainy season.

10.Boost Vitamin C Intake:

Foods rich in Vitamin C, such as citrus fruits (e.g., oranges, lemons), bell peppers, and gooseberries (amla), help strengthen the immune system. Vitamin C is essential for fighting infections and maintaining overall health.

By adopting these food habits, you can enhance your immunity, maintain digestive health, and reduce the risk of illnesses commonly associated with the monsoon season. Prioritizing fresh, nutritious foods and maintaining hygiene in food preparation are key to staying healthy during this time of year.

Off-Topic Tuesday: July 2nd, 2024

I know I said I wouldn’t be making any real posts this week so I can try and get ahead on stuff, but I feel like these off-topic Tuesday posts are kind of pointless to write ahead of time? I guess what I mean is that these just feel like posts I should make in the moment to talk about stuff going on. My sleep schedule has deteriorated badly this last bit, which is making it hard to get much…

My friends who have never experienced flooding, and who are about to deal with it from this storm, please remember:

1. NO. YOU CANNOT MAKE IT THROUGH THAT WATER ON THE ROAD. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE DRIVING. TURN. AROUND.

2. DO NOT GO WADING THROUGH THE WATER. EVEN IF YOU JUST WANT TO SEE HOW DEEP IT IS. THAT. WATER. IS. CONTAMINATED.

3. IT IS CALLED FLASH FLOODING FOR A REASON. THE WATER RISES AND SURGES IN A FLASH. STAY. HOME.

4. If you're at risk of flooding, raise up any of your belongings now. Put the legs of tall things in buckets. Know where your important documents are.

5. Stay safe.

Margaret Atwood, The Blind Assassin

[balrogballs]

i'm a writer irl (can't say who because my agent would rightfully put me into a blender and press the button if i go and out myself as "balrogballs") and honestly the funniest and most humiliating incident of my life was the time my finished manuscript triggered a plagiarism flag with the publisher for two lines of prose in my literary fiction novel...

.... which was word for word similar to a paragraph in a certain explicit work on FFN starring elrond and his batsman from the hobbit films, aka that one elf that looked like he ate panic attacks for breakfast (i forget his name but it's Figwit II) where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment.

and if you think i had to sit in front of one if the biggest publishing companies in the world and admit that it was, in fact, me who wrote the fic where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment in order to avoid being wrongly flagged for plagiarism, you would be absolutely correct.

(yes they published the book)
