(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) A variety of meals include pulses, which are edible seeds from leguminous plants used for nourishment. Pulses, ranging from lentils to dried beans to peas, can be found in a range of meals including curries, salads, and soups.

When it rains, the humidity affects our digestive system, causing gas, bloating, and acidity if we do not eat properly during the rainy season.
