CURE MILD COVID THROUGH AYURVEDA : Niti Aayog
Adopt Ayurvedic ‘immune boosters’ such as Chyawanprash and drink haldi doodh (turmeric milk) and kadha (a concoction of various household spices), Dr V.K. Paul, member (health) NITI Aayog, said Tuesday, asking people with mild Covid symptoms to visit Ayurveda practitioners and follow their advice.
Dr Paul’s statement comes on a day fresh Covid-19 cases in the country breached 1,60,000-mark for the second consecutive day.
‘To increase immunity during a pandemic, there is guidance from the government to adopt Ayurvedic products. Specific recommendations to remind you are Chyawanprash twice a day, have turmeric milk once a day — it is already very popular and should become more so.
The third thing is the tulsi, dalchini (cinammon), kali mirch (black peppercorn) kadha (concoction), please use it. Also, adopt yoga,’ Dr Paul said.
‘The national task force saw how much it helps in post-Covid complications. Apart from that, if you have Covid, please talk to Ayurvedacharyas (practitioners of Ayurveda) and for mild or asymptomatic disease please follow their guidance. The immune boosters are for all.’
Dr Paul is a key member of the Modi government’s decision making body on the pandemic.
CHYAWANPRASH
Chyawanprash is a time-tested herbal formulation that most of us have taken right from our childhood as the magical immunity booster. Be it men or women, young or old, this ayurvedic supplement is beneficial for all. It has a distinctly sweet, sour taste with a spicy undertone, brownish-black hue and a jam-like consistency.
Ancient folklore has it that two ancient sages of the holistic science of Ayurveda concocted this rejuvenative formula to restore youth to the elderly sage, Chyawan. Hence the name of the formulation “Chyawanprash” comes from two words “prash” to prepare something and “Chyawan”, the sage for whom it was first prepared. It usually falls under the category of drugs named “Rasayana,” which are rejuvenating tonics that intend to maintain youth and delay the aging process.
