Ritu, the season, changes with time and potentially influences the earth’s biological systems and human health differently. Ayurveda has classified these seasons as per their effects, and to habituate to the seasonal variations, specific rules and regimens have been mentioned by the Acharyas. These changes in diet and practices help the body transition easily from one season to another. As the pediatric age group with comparatively less immunity is more susceptible to the changes in the season, to prevent this age group from falling prey to seasonal diseases, it is important to practice Ritucharya. India is a tropical country. Monsoons here are responsible for many health conditions among the pediatric age group, and various scientific studies are the basis for this. In this review article, the regimens in diet and lifestyle, as mentioned in Varsha Ritu, and its importance in preventing health conditions during the rainy season in the pediatric age group have been discussed.
