During the change of seasons, high humidity creates conditions for microorganisms to grow, combined with a weakened immune system, creating an opportunity for bacteria to attack and cause respiratory and digestive diseases.

Here are some simple ways to help fight the sniffles when the weather "acts up", according to Webmd.

Yogurt

In addition to its beauty benefits, yogurt also brings many health benefits. Yogurt stimulates the digestive system. Specifically: yogurt contains lactic acid - which helps increase beneficial bacteria in the intestines, reduces the activity of substances harmful to the intestines, stimulates appetite, promotes metabolism, and absorbs nutrients more easily and effectively.

Garlic

Garlic has long been known as an antibiotic against flu... And today, studies have found that garlic contains selenium, trace elements containing antibacterial alliin which has the effect of enhancing immunity, reducing blood pressure, so it is very suitable for use during the changing seasons.

Honey

Honey has long been considered a “miracle drug” for treating diseases, and one of its effects is to treat colds and digestive diseases. Mixing 2 teaspoons of honey into a glass of warm water and drinking it every morning will help improve the body’s immunity and clean the intestines, thereby effectively preventing colds and digestive disorders, according to Prevention.

Grapefruit

Besides lemon, orange, tangerine…, grapefruit is also a fruit that contains a lot of vitamin C which is very good for the body’s resistance. However, it should be noted that in some cases, people who are using anti-shock drugs, sedatives or high blood pressure, drinking grapefruit juice can cause poisoning to the body.

Green tea

A study has shown that people who have the habit of drinking 5 cups of tea a day for 2 weeks have 10 times higher resistance to viruses than those who do not drink. The reason is that the amino acids in green tea have the effect of strengthening the body's immune system.

Potato

Potatoes contain vitamin C, potassium and fiber - substances that help fight off flu-causing agents in the body. However, it should be noted that sprouted potatoes are very toxic, so even if it is a pity, you must throw them away.

Green vegetables

Green vegetables contain many vitamins A, B, C, fiber and many other plant nutrients... all of which are essential for the body. Vitamin C increases resistance to help prevent colds, mucus supports intestinal motility, helps digestion better, vitamin A helps brighten eyes, fiber helps prevent constipation...
