 But with cases of COVID-19 on the rise in India, and WHO declaring it a pandemic

there is no doubt we need to safeguard ourselves against infections. For this, it’s best to

wash hands with soap and water regularly and avoid crowds. In addition, here are some

home remedies traditional medicine practitioners recommend, to boost your immunity.

 What Ayurveda says

 Valsala Varier, chief medical officer at Arya Vaidya Sala Kottakkal, Coimbatore,

recommends three immunity-boosting drinks:

 Boil a litre of water with 1 tablespoon of dried ginger, 4 teaspoons of coriander seeds

and a fistful of fresh tulsi leaves. Strain it and drink

 Mix one glass of milk with four glasses of water and add three cloves of garlic in it. Boil

it till it is reduced to one glass. Strain it and and drink this instead of tea/coffee.

 Add 1 teaspoon each of turmeric powder, asafoetida powder, fenugreek and fennel seeds

with a few curry leaves to 500 ml of butter milk and warm it for five minutes. Drink

twice or thrice daily.

 A glass mug full of hot ginger tea. Isolated on white.  

 Metabolism also plays an important role in our immunity, adds Varier. “Space your

meals in such a way that the first one is completely digested by the time you have your
second. Also make your dinner light, like a bowl of salad.” Another important measure

is to get enough sleep and prepare the body for the next day. She suggests oil baths

twice a week. “Add 100 gm of fenugreek seeds to a litre of oil and bring it to a boil.

Once cooled, apply it all over your body and head. Let it soak into the skin for an hour

before you bathe.”

 Chaithrika GK, who practises Ayurveda at the Institute of Trans-Disciplinary Health

Sciences and Technology, recommends this decoction:

 Take 10-15 leaves of tulsi, 4-5 of parijata, 4-5 of neem, 6 of bael, and raw turmeric.

Crush and boil the paste in one glass, or 250 ml of water, and reduce the solution to half.

Add jaggery and cumin powder. Chaithrika recommends that you drink this after

breakfast or lunch, and not on an empty stomach. “Having this decoction once a day for

a week is enough. Don’t have it for long periods as it may be a burden on the liver.”
