Anjun khanna - Ayurveda and COVID-19
                     Anjum Khanna - Ayurveda and COVID-19
So everyone knows the times we are going through because 
everyone is suffering because of it. Whether it be the rich or 
the poor, the strong or weak, and even the people from 
different countries belonging to different races all of them 
are in unrest. The COVID pandemic has created worldwide 
panic and has caused so many deaths all over the world. 
This global threat to humanity has many people questioning 
many things not to mention the number of rumours 
spreading around like wildfire. This panic has people 
questioning many things which include all the existing 
medicines and therapies. People are trying to figure out 
what can help beat or at least try to minimize the effects of 
the Coronavirus. But people in this country are forgetting 
the very root of medics which has led to the inventions of 
many more medicines henceforth.
Ayurveda has always been something that has nurtured the 
people of this country ever since its inception. Ayurveda is 
treating various ailments only through natural means. It ensures 
that the treatment remains as organic as possible. Even though 
the artificially made medicines do work but these can cause 
many side effects due to the presence of chemicals. But the 
Ayurveda remedies are only made with plants, something that is 
the creation of the earth itself hence it has little to no side 
effects.
People who truly believe in the effectiveness of Ayurveda to fight 
corona are the staff at the Anjum Khanna clinic. The Anjum 
Khanna Healthy Ayurveda Clinic, Panchkarma Centre, Ayurveda 
Pharmacy came into existence in the year 1998, by committed, 
dedicated, and experienced professionals in the field of 
Ayurveda. 
This clinic is situated in Srinagar (Main Market) Khayam Chawk, 
Munawarabad. The reason why this clinic is situated in Srinagar is 
nature’s beauty and abundance of plants and herbs. This makes it 
a perfect place for Ayurvedic treatment. Many patients from all 
across the world come to visit our clinic. Our Ayurvedic clinic 
faces a rigorous fifty-point inspection which includes customer 
reviews, history, ratings, satisfaction, trust, cost, and general 
excellence.
Question - How can something as old of a process as Ayurveda 
can heal or help fight against something like COVID-19?
Answer - Some of you may have heard that this virus is 
very different from the other viruses that have created a 
pandemic before. It’s different in the way it spreads, it’s 
different in strength, and it’s different in its persistency 
and after-effects. This was something that confused a lot 
of modern-day scientists and doctors all over the world. It 
took them so long to figure out how does the virus even 
spread. Although Ayurveda is not an antidote to the virus 
it can help fight off the germs and increase metabolism 
naturally.
Question - What remedies can be adopted to fight off or 
minimize the impact of the Coronavirus?
 
Answer - Many Ayurvedic tricks out there will help 
increase the strength of your immune system which 
can help repel the virus even if it enters your body 
somehow. Some simple herbal remedies can clear our 
throat and respiratory system. Since one of the main 
symptoms of this virus is cough and cold added with a 
difficulty in breathing. If we can keep our wind 
passage clear by having some natural medics then we 
can prevent our body from growing weak. 
Question - What are the ingredients that can be used for this 
remedy and are they easily available?
Answer - The ingredients which can be used to cure or defend 
common-cold are- talisadi, abhrakbhasma, and 
mahasudarshanchurna. These herbs not only prevent 
common-cold and clear the respiratory system but also 
strengthen the body as well. You can add these ingredients to 
the tea that you drink every morning. This will add a really rich 
flavour to the tea. Hence you can maintain good health in a 
tasty way! Some of these ingredients can be found at home or 
can be found in any Ayurvedic shop. We have an abundance of 
all different kinds of herbs that are used to treat the visitors.
Question - What if people are unable to find these herbs in their 
locality? Are these homemade remedies the only way?
Answer- There are off course more Ayurvedic treatments than just 
these remedies which can help fight off the virus. These herbal 
home remedies are only suggested since during this pandemic 
everyone is instructed to stay at home and come out only when 
necessary. However, if you can come to Anjum Khanna clinic while 
maintaining all the safety measures and protocols then you will be 
treated with the most well-known detoxification cycle of Ayurved 
called Panchkarma. This treatment usually incorporates five 
common strategies (that’s why its name has the word “Panch” 
which is five in Sanskrit) for purgation or disposal, seriously 
detoxifying the body while adjusting the three “Doshas” – Vatta, 
Pitta, and Kapha. It’s done with the assistance of cured oils.
Question - What are the benefits of Panchkarma?
Answer- The benefits of Panchkarma are:
     Increase in digestive fire
     Disease is alleviated
     Health is restored and maintained
     All sense organs work properly
     Increases strength
     Not only healthy but also relaxing
Question - What if we can’t avail of the services by 
the clinic or even make the home-made recipes?
Answer- If you are unable to do any of the above-
mentioned processes then you should stay at your 
home and eat only home-made food. Don’t eat food 
from restaurants or any fast food café. Don’t drink iced 
beverages or eat yogurt, cheese, and ice-cream. Make 
sure to do yoga (especially Surya Namaskar) daily to 
maintain health and metabolism.
All though the world is in shambles we should keep our 
calm and indulge in Ayurveda as much as we can to 
keep ourselves from getting infected. 
Stay safe and healthy.
