MUMBAI: With the rising summer temperatures making days hotter than ever, staying cool and hydrated has become a daily challenge for everyone. But for Swati Shah, who plays Jagdamba Devi in Sun Neo’s Rishto Se Bandhi Gauri, beating the heat is all about going natural and nourishing. she shares her summer secrets that not only keep her fresh but also full of energy.
Sharing her summer routine, Swati says, “I always keep mint leaves (pudina) and more than six bottles of water with me on set. I keep drinking this water throughout the day. Normally, people feel lazy to drink plain water, but when you add a little flavor, like mint and chia seeds, it feels refreshing and tasty, so you enjoy drinking it. Mint and chia both have a cooling effect. I also keep changing the ingredients—some days I add seeds, other days sabja (basil) seeds. This not only keeps me hydrated but also gives a fresh feeling, and you don’t feel very hungry. Most importantly, it helps your body stay cool, which is the main goal.”
The Rishto Se Bandhi Gauri Actress further shared, “If you look into my tiffin box, you’ll find chaas (buttermilk) almost throughout the year, around nine months. I’m Gujarati by birth actually, Kutchhi so for us, chaas is a must. I avoid it only during very cold days, which hardly happen in Mumbai. I love chaas with a little twist: I add a bit of boondi, mint, coriander, and black salt. It tastes amazing!
She also sends a thoughtful message to her fans about how to stay hydrated and healthy during summer, “I’ve seen many youngsters go for cold drinks during summer. I’m not saying they are completely wrong every person’s body is different but I would still suggest staying cool in natural ways. Cold Drinks may give you temporary relief, but later they make you feel even more drained. Instead, have citrus fruits like watermelon, oranges, or grapes. Drink coconut water it’s the best option. These things naturally hydrate your body and keep you healthy. So my request to everyone: stay away from cold drinks as much as possible and choose natural, healthy options instead.”
