Pune nowadays is in panic, parents are worried for their children. Many things about swine flue are confusing them. On one side health authorities are telling common man not to panic, whereas on other side there are so many precautions issued every day. Every day the number of patients are increasing. The world health organisation has raised the level of swine flu alert to level 4 on a scale of 6. Mexico is worst hit by swine flu with a death toll of about 149. Experts all around the world have been issuing warnings about flu viruses terming them as possible global killers and blaming global warming for those genetic changes in the virus.
Swine flu as we all know by its name came from swine or pigs. Unhealthy conditions in commercial piggeries are to be blamed for this problem to start.
Symptoms –
1) Fever
2) Headache
3) Cough and cold
4) Sneezing ,running nose
5) Loose motions
6) Abdominal pain
Ayurvedic approach –
This problem according to ayurveda is called janpadodhwansa vyadhi ( the destroyer of settlements ). In this type of diseases, natural elements like water, soil, air etc. are polluted giving rise to same problems to many persons at one time.
But Ayurveda has also given many recommendations to avoid such type of problems.It has also recommended many type of herbs and combinations to cure and prevent such diseases .
1) Avoid closed public places such as theatres,cafes etc.
2) Personal and social cleanliness - like washing hands regularly, holding tissue or cotton cloth in front of nose and mouth while sneezing and coughing. Also disposing used tissues properly than to keep them lying around
3) Drink 1 cup of milk boiled with 1 small piece of ginger + 2 black peppers +1 clove at least once in a day .
4) Tulsi leaf juice is a good protector from such problems
5) Boiling 1 whole blade of lemongrass with seeds from 1 cinnamom in 1 cup of water is also a good protector and healer .
6) In case of loose motions or abdominal pain 1 spoon of fresh lemon juice is added to 1 cup of lukewarm water and taken (it is best to add one clove of garlic in the water while boiling)
7) Fresh Alpinia galanga roots are chewed with honey to protect from this problem .
8) For nausea and abdominal pain ½ spoon of fresh kadipatta leaf juice can be given 2 times a day .
Low immunity, especially in children can be blamed for this situation in Pune. Poor food quality and lack of exercise in children can be blamed for this low immunity. More concentration should be given to freshly prepared home cooked food with fresh green leafy vegetables and fruits.
Maintaining good exercise regime and a healthy diet pattern can only protect us from such future epidemics.
