Avoid eating oily, high-calorie and spicy foods in summers. Avoid excessive consumption of caffeine, tea, coffee, alcohol as it can cause dehydration.
While summer season gives you the opportunity to have variety of drinks, from the cool lassi to the evergreen mango shake that children and adults both love to have, it does bring along some not so pleasant things as well. Summer season makes us lethargic, no desire to work, inactive and often makes us feel sleepy.
Well, if you are not doing anything then it is fine. But if this happens in between work then it may be a cause of concern, particularly when you are working from the office. Actually, in the summer season, if you are not taking a healthy diet and sufficient amount of fluids, then the body becomes dehydrated.
This then reduces the energy of the body and you do not feel like working. If you too often feel lethargic and laziness during office hours, then it is important to note some dos and don'ts.
