During winter, many people face problems like cold, fever and cough. This often happens due to a weak immune system. Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, Founder of Isha Foundation, recently shared some tips to strengthen the immune system in winter in a video. He told how beneficial Amla can be in this season.
1. According to Sadhguru, take a small amla. Hybrid Amla are also available in the market, but the traditional small Amla is the most effective. Crush it, add salt and suck it. Amla juice should remain in your mouth for a longer time.
2. Another suggestion is to drink warm water four to five times a day. If you want, you can also add coriander leaves, turmeric and lemon juice to it.
How does Amla increase immunity?
Amla is highly effective in boosting immunity as it is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, which strengthen the white blood cells. It helps fight infections and protects the body from oxidative stress. The polyphenols, flavonoids and tannins present in it also provide antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, thereby providing protection against cold, cough and other infections.
benefits of turmeric
Turmeric contains a powerful antioxidant called curcumin, which also has anti-inflammatory properties. It strengthens immune cells (such as T-cells and B-cells), helps fight bacteria and viruses, and helps reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the body.
