Swine Flu - Sirish Bhate.

[Guest guest]

Swine FluBy Shirish Bhate(from main group ayurveda. Dr Bhate is the founder member of ) There is no need to be afraid of swine flu. The stress caused by

its fear and other negative states such as boredom, fatigue, worry,

melancholy thoughts, jealousy depresses immune system. Such a system

will open gates to all viruses, not only swine flu but chickenguniya,

dengu, bird flu, plague etc, to multiply and colonise our body.

Other reasons which depress immune system alertness are:

 

1. Inadequate sleep

2. Late dinner, indigestion due to heavy foods

3. Iregular timings of meals

4. Foods stored in Fridge for long time

5. Lack of exercise, sedentary lifestyle

6. No exposure to sunlight

7. Exposure to computer screens in a/c environment

8. Exposure to polluted environment, especially deficient in oxygen content.

9. Taking food before previous one is digested

10. separation from loved ones, worries about their well being etc

 

Vulnerable population includes children, elderlies, IT professionals

working 9 to 9 in artificial lights and A/c cabins, Managers travelling

in A/c Cars are more vulnerable due to additional stress of economic

meltdown.

 

Many more reasons can be added. For ladies, few days before the start

of Menses is a time period where they are vulnerable to mood swings,

depressed state. Immunity is low during these few days, and they become

victim to Candida infection causing leucorrhoea and thrush.

 

When immunity is low, the viruses find it easy to attack our tissues.

 

The remedies for such condition should balance doshas, strengthen immune system. Few remedies:

 

1. The best anti-biotic, anti-fungal, anti-viral is Cow urine or its

distillate. Take 1-2 tsp thrice a day, diluting it by boiled or copper

water in ratio 1:3 When you take cow urine, use it in 24 hours,

quantity maximum 5 ml starting dose, gradually reach to 10 ml in 3

days. Keep the dose constant till all symptoms vanish, hunger digestion

and motions normalize. Cow urine or its distillate can be used for all

epidemics, all fevers.

 

2. For those who cant obtain cow urine or distillate, mix Sitopaladi

Churna and Yeshtimadhu Churna, each ½ tsp, add little honey and Indian

cow ghee (ensure that ghee and honey are in unequal proportion) and

lick this twice a day. There is an anti-viral ingredient in Licorice,

and there are studies done abroad to prove this. This ingredient was

shown useful in Chinese studies, especially against H5N1 virus attack.

 

3. Cinnamon, cloves and Cardamom, pound together taking equal quantity

by weight. Put this in a small bottle and inhale the smell frequently.

Eucalyptus oil inhalation is also useful.

 

4. Formulations should be taken after consulting a vaidya, since they

differ somewhat depending on symptoms, pulse, age, vitality,

availability etc. Ayurveda has fast relief medication as well as slow

but sure medication. One has to observe food restrictions while taking

some formulations. Vaidya is the best guide here..

 

Avoid Sleeping late, cold/uncooked foods, incompatible diet. Tea/coffee

after Idli Sambhar, No No. Instead of Mask, one can apply pure cow

ghee, or Ashtamangal Ghrut or Panchgavya Ghrut inside the nose. It does

not allow germs to enter the lungs. Panchgavya ghrut is good for

depression too.

 

Dhupam: Fire cow dung cakes, when stable fire establishes, burn Indian

cow ghee, Guggal, Loban, Neem leaves in the fire. Contrary to what one

may think, these are available in Metros also. Goushalas also sell

ready to burn sticks containing above ingredients. Dhup smoke purifies

the environment. Cow ghee, when burnt, produces Ozone. LIght cotton

clothing permits sunlight exposure. Avoid synthetic clothes. Spend some

time to watch setting sun from a garden/beach. Watching rising sun with

wide open eyelids without blinking is termed sun-gazing and should be

done gradually increasing time.

 

Lastly, Pranayama strengthens the lungs and increases the efficacy of

oxygenation of blood. This boosts immunes system. Those who do

pranayama regularly will never suffer from respiratory difficulties or

lung infections.All it takes is just one vaccine to forever change your life. - Dawn, mother of vaccine damaged child.
