Therefore in summer, with longer days, we get to sleep less because the melatonin production time reduces considerably.

Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people, mainly children, every year. Malaria's symptoms are caused by parasites and not mosquitoes. Malaria is transmitted when infected mosquitoes bite and inject malaria parasites into their human victim.
Here are some preventive measures you can take to control malaria and stop it from spreading further.
1. Wear full sleeve protective clothing.
2. Spray mosquito repellents.
3. Use a mosquito net at night as mosquitoes get active during the night and pose a higher risk.
4. Keep your home and surroundings clean without junk, waste, or stagnant water.
5. As soon as you find any possible signs of malaria, consult your doctor immediately.

Blazing heat and energy-sapping humidity can spell doom on your health in summer. So make sure you are correctly armed with a nutritious diet to fight off summer meltdown!
Include water-rich fruits in your diet. One of our seasonal favourites is Watermelon. Being a rich source of Vitamin A, it is good for your eyes and immunity. In addition, citrulline plays an important role in the synthesis of nitric oxide, which helps lower blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels. Potassium aids in crucial heart functions, improves muscle work, and strengthens bones.
Make a salad with fresh sprouts or nuts, or juice it up with a pinch of rock salt; Watermelon can energise you right away with a dash of much needed freshness anytime of the day.

From time to time, everyone gets a headache. There are varying causes of headache, but as a symptom, if you are bothered by it almost at a chronic level, then here's what you should know and why you should consult a specialist.

Tension headache occurs when the scalp or the neck muscles contract and stiffen. This dull aching head pain can last anywhere between 30 minutes to several days.

Sinus headaches are often accompanied by head throbs, a stuffy nose, and hurting eyes, cheeks, and foreheads. Sinus headache goes away as soon as the sinus infection is cured.

Migraine headaches are worse. Severe throbbing pain on one side of the head followed by nausea, vomiting, and extreme light and sound sensitivity are the common symptoms of migraine headaches.

Cluster headache is one of the most painful headaches which can make you lose sleep because of intense pain around one eye and one side of the head.

Headaches can be treated with immediate effect by a simple lifestyle or food habit change. Get checked to recover better and faster.
