Dear Roopashree,
There is this bad viral going around that has all the symptoms of Omicron.
People in my family and friends have been affected too.
Basically, the symptoms are a high grade fever, cough, bad throat and an itchy nose. And the cough does not go away for a long, long time.
How does one treat something like this since there are no medicines really for a viral?
How can one build immunity against it?
What kind of care should one take when one has the viral in terms of what we eat?
What natural remedies are there to deal with these symptoms?
You will be helping a lot of people with this answer.
Thank you.
Smita

Ans:

Yes, these are testing times for all of us, and the test is not just of our immunity but also our responsibility towards ourselves and towards each other.

Firstly, the responsibility towards one’s self is to stay fit, as a healthy body is our best chance to beat any disease.

Stick to a healthy routine. Exercising ensures the release of toxins and a good respiratory system; eating fresh food maintains gut health and thus provides our body with the required nutrients.

Maintaining this routine is important as it strengthens the body’s immunity.

We should be alert and do immediate home remedies like steam inhalation and throat gargle with warm salt water at the first sight of cold or other any symptoms.

Secondly, the responsibility towards others is to quarantine ourselves, even when we have mild symptoms, to stop the spread.
