Healthy milk preparation that are helpful in summers

“During the summer season, we all are aware of the fact that we have to drink enough liquid or fluid to prevent ourselves from getting dehydrated. Due to excess sweating, it becomes much more important to include a healthy liquid diet in our daily meal.”

We have three main seasons in our country that are summer, winter, and rainy season. Summer starts in March and ends in June. It is the hottest time in our country when summer scorches with its hottest and driest heat. The coastal areas are benefitted from the presence of sea winds, but the plain land areas are the ones that are worst affected by dry heat called “loo”. During the summer season, heatwaves and strong sunshine are the two things, which each and every one of us want to avoid. People find their best ways to stay relaxed on long summer vacations. Many of us often prefer traveling to some hilly areas for its cool and pleasant weather like Shimla, Manali, Leh, Laddakh, etc yet many of us are left at home, helpless due to work promises or other personal reasons. So, here are some ways by which you can stay cool, hydrated, and relaxed at home too. Some healthy milk preparations which are very much effective in the summer season are -

This can be either salty or sweet in taste. It tastes best when served chilled with any of the fruit shakes especially mango. It helps in the proper digestion of food and builds immunity too. It is a very good source of calcium and vitamin D.
