The changing of seasons and climate creates opportunities for diseases to develop, causing harm to human health. Actively preventing diseases with natural medicines will minimize the risk of disease, helping us to go through the transitional weather comfortably and healthily.

Respiratory diseases

Daily accumulation of polluted smoke and dust combined with changing air humidity due to erratic rain and sunshine can easily cause diseases related to the ear, nose, and throat such as pharyngitis, rhinitis, and more seriously, can lead to asthma, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc.

Besides keeping the ears, nose and throat clean, we can use some foods such as:

-Licorice, basil:These are two benign oriental medicines. The habit of sucking licorice or drinking basil tea will be very good for the respiratory tract at this time.

Digestive tract diseases

Irregular and unhygienic eating often leads to digestive disorders. In addition, the "difficult" climate, sometimes sunny, sometimes rainy, when changing seasons, also contributes to reducing the body's absorption function, causing loss of appetite, fatigue, and psychological instability.

Foods that effectively support the digestive tract include:

Skin diseases

Unstable weather is also the reason why we are prone to skin problems, from chapped, dry skin to more serious diseases such as shingles, psoriasis, etc.

Keeping the body clean will help prevent the risk of skin diseases. In addition, we should also supplement skin-friendly foods such as:

- Strawberry:Berries such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries are rich in antioxidants. They help prevent skin damage caused by the sun.
