Nova: V létě častěji hrozí zažívací potíže. Lékaři radí obezřetnost a zvýšenou hygienu

During summer months, the risk of digestive problems increases, mainly caused by poorly stored or insufficiently heat-treated food. Particularly dangerous are poultry meat, raw eggs, ice cream, and unwashed fruit, as bacteria multiply better in warm environments. Desserts containing eggs can become hazardous within just one hour outside the refrigerator, leading to stomach discomfort, bloating, nausea, or diarrhea. Doctors recommend proper storage in a refrigerator at temperatures up to five degrees Celsius, maintaining adequate fluid intake, and clean hands washed with soap and warm water. In summer, it is advisable to eat smaller portions and lighter meals, while avoiding alcohol, which increases the risk of dehydration.
