Spicy food is seen as the cause of health related issues in the summer season. But that is not completely true. Here are some spices that you need to avoid and some that you need to eat during summers.
Dhaniya lowers the inner body temperature and detoxifies the body. It also helps get rid of excess heat.
Consuming too much black pepper can cause hot flashes and allergies.
Saunf is anyway popular for its cooling properties. Fennel seeds are also a great source of Vitamin C.
You might want to lower your garlic consumption in summer as it can cause acidity.
Mint chutney is so popular during summers because of the instant cooling that it provides.
It can cause stomach issues and heartburn, so ginger should not be consumed in a large quantity.
Cumin or jeera regulated body temperature and makes you feel light.
It goes without saying that red chilli should be avoided during summer as it is heavy on stomach.
