One major reason is that\u00a0seasonal changes can put extra stress on the immune system<\/strong>, making the body more vulnerable to infections.<\/p>\n

1. Rapid Weather Fluctuations<\/strong>
\nQuick changes in temperature can disturb the body\u2019s internal balance. This may\u00a0weaken immune response<\/strong>\u00a0and increase the risk of viral and bacterial infections.<\/p>\n

2. Extra Energy Demand on the Body<\/strong>
\nWhen temperatures rise or fall, the body works harder to maintain its normal warmth. This can\u00a0drain energy<\/strong>\u00a0and place more pressure on the immune system.<\/p>\n

3. Increase in Allergens and Germs<\/strong>
\nDuring shifting seasons, elements like\u00a0dust, pollen, viruses, and fungi<\/strong>\u00a0become more active in the air. These can stress the immune system, making it harder for the body to defend itself.<\/p>\n

4. Cold Air Weakens Protective Barriers<\/strong>
\nCooler weather may\u00a0affect the nose, throat, skin, and lungs<\/strong>, reducing their ability to block germs. Even a small drop in body temperature can negatively impact immunity.<\/p>\n

5. Disturbed Routine and Stress<\/strong>
\nSeasonal changes often disrupt sleep patterns and daily habits. Lack of rest and increased stress can alter hormone levels, further\u00a0lowering immune strength<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

How to Stay Protected<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013\u00a0Eat nutritious foods<\/strong>, especially fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C like lemon, amla, and other citrus fruits.
\n\u2013\u00a0Stay hydrated<\/strong>, particularly in colder months.
\n\u2013\u00a0Exercise 30\u201360 minutes daily<\/strong>\u00a0to support immune function.
\n\u2013\u00a0Get 7\u20138 hours of sleep<\/strong>\u00a0every night.
\n\u2013\u00a0Manage stress<\/strong>\u00a0through relaxation or mindful habits.
\n\u2013\u00a0Consult a doctor<\/strong>\u00a0instead of self-treatment if you feel unwell.<\/p>\n
