How to Make Your Immunity Strong to Fight Against Covid-19?

Our immune system does a remarkable job against disease-causing microorganisms and defends them amazingly. But in certain circumstances, it fails.

A disease-causing germ successfully invades into the body and makes a person sick. So in this situation, the certain question arises i.e.

Is it possible to intervene in this process and boost your immunity?

How can we improve our diet? Are vitamins or herbal preparations to build up immunity?

What lifestyle changes should be taken for building up a perfect immune response?

A person may possess chronic low immunity. From an Ayurveda point of view, the human body is made up of seven tissue layers or dhatus which is responsible for our immunity.

These layers of tissue known as Rasa (lymph), Rakta (blood), Mamsa (muscle), Medha (fat), Asthi (bone), Majja (bone marrow) and Shukra (semen/reproductive tissue. The final essence of these seven tissues is known as ojas.

Ayurveda offers a natural way to maintain a healthy body. The tridoshas vata, pitta, kapha are known as energies of the body.

In Ayurveda, there is a theory of immunity known as beej bhumi theory, which means seed and land.

In this case, the body is related to land while the infections are related to the seed.

If there is an accumulation of ama in the body and the body is lacking the ojas , then the infection will find the fertile ground in the same way as the fertile land will sprout the seeds.

If the digestion is strong and ojas is there, then the seeds of infection will not affect the body just like infertile land will not sprout the seeds.

When the seasons change, the susception of respiratory infection increases.

Body function differently in cold and hot seasons and digestive fire can fluctuate irregularly. One should follow a healthy lifestyle and diet for strong immunity.
