Dr Shriram Nene debunks 4 common monsoon health myths

Dr Shriram Nene is a heart surgeon and the husband of Bollywood star Madhuri Dixit.

He shares health tips on Instagram.

He recently posted a video about the rainy season, called monsoon, when many people get sick.

He wanted to bust four myths so people can stay healthy.

First, getting wet in the rain does not make you sick, because viruses do.

But wearing wet clothes for a long time can make it easier for infections to take hold.

Second, hot street food is not always safe because heat does not kill all germs.

Third, mosquitoes can breed in any still water, not just dirty water, so people should empty flower pots and cooler trays.

Fourth, no supplement like Vitamin C or Kadha guarantees you will not get sick.

He also asked people to send this advice to the family group before the next monsoon message arrives.
