As Mumbai's schools begin classes, children and parents are going to get busy with their academics. While it won't take long for that to pick up pace in the coming months, the monsoon season looms large and so does the many sicknesses that come with it.

With monsoon and sickness going hand-in-hand, people often get sick. While adults can manage by themselves, children more often than not get affected because of lower immunity. Couple that with them enduring a busy schedule that not only involves going to school and studying, but also indulging in physical activities like playing sports, nutrition plays an important role in their lives.

At such times, Mumbai's health experts say the need for parents to take care of their child's health is of the utmost importance. The easiest way to do that is by making sure they eat the right kind of food.
