Africa-Press – Mauritius. The great thing about Ayurveda is that its treatments always yield side benefits and not side effects. ” Shubra Krishan Ayurveda is one of the great gifts of the sages of ancient India and in Sanskrit it means “the science of life”.
Contrary to the belief that Ayurveda is an old dated and archaic medicinal system, it actually does have a crucial role to play in the current situation where Covid-19 is ravaging the world.
A profound study of the Charaka and Sushruta Samhita depicts that epidemics can result from man’s activities when they go against the laws of nature. Nature is God-gifted and is meant to be respected and protected.
An accumulation of toxins in the environment can create the conditions for an epidemic to occur. The Covid-19 infection attacks the person through the nose, mouth and throat. From there it moves to the respiratory tract and can prove to be fatal to some people.
Ayurveda offers individuals a wide panoply of rules and regulations to be followed on a daily basis (termed as dinacharya) which cleans the different passages and channels in the human body. Many of these principles can be used to ward off the Covid-19 infection:
According to a study at AYUSH-Gujarat, Covid-19 patients on combined therapy of allopathy and ayurveda, got RT-PCR negative results in an average of 7.85 days compared to 12.19 for those only on allopathic medicines.
Thus, it can be seen that faster recovery is achieved through Ayurvedic medicines. Shatavari, Ashwagandha and Guduchi are powerful antiviral Ayurvedic medicines.
Unlike the various vaccines, pills and other medicines which have been found to fight against Covid-19, the Ayurvedic treatment does not have any side-effects. On the other hand, it only helps in boosting one’s immunity.
