Building Immunity with Ayurveda
The whole world is is anxious with Covid-19 virus spreading and strengthening YOUR Own Body's Immunity is a great defense. For centuries, Ayurveda has addressed the issue of how to develop and maintain strong immunity.
IMMUNITY TO-DOs
Good digestion -- a prime requirement
-
It is advised to consume Samskrithamadhu (
Ayurvedic Honey) with lime in warm water daily in the morning to keep the whole digestive tract healthy. -
Drink warm freshly boiled water with Cinnamon, Clove, Cardamom, Ginger, Black Pepper, and Star Anise. These spices improve digestion and are antimicrobial.
-
Add fresh Turmeric to your soups or prepare fresh Turmeric Pickle(recipe) with each meal. Turmeric apart from its anti-inflammation properties is also very good at improving our digestion.
-
Chyavanaprasam (is a good source of C vitamin) – useful for deficient immune disorders, respiratory ailments (also useful in debilitating diseases where the immunity goes down drastically). Those who cannot take ghee/sugar of Chyavanaprasam may take Tiktakam Kwatham morning and evening. It is an ancient Ayurvedic herbal supplement tablet that is robustly anti-viral.
-
Agastya Rasayana (Leham) – useful for general debility, respiratory ailments including bronchial asthma, hiccup, cough
-
Dasamula Arishtam after lunch and dinner- is a very powerful and potent health tonic to boost immunity as well as strengthen the lungs and the respiratory system.
-
Pippalya Asavam is a very potent health tonic to kindle the digestive fire
- But the best way to develop Immunity is to cook fresh vegetables especially sourced from a local organic farm. See our Indian Farm Box (CSA) for delivery of fresh Indian Heirloom Vegetables (many of which have wonderful Ayurvedic properties) directly to your home. Why struggle with going to the grocery store – when you can have fresh vegetables delivered directly from our Farm.
