Experts note a rise in such infections, especially in Mumbai, linked to contaminated food, dehydration, and lifestyle changes. Preventive measures include consuming freshly cooked food, avoiding street vendors, staying hydrated, and managing sudden temperature changes between heat and air conditioning to protect gut health.
