Immunity- How to Improve and Maintain




Nowadays the most discussed topic is how to 

improve the Immunity.


Running nose, sneezing, chillness of body, poor 

appetite, tiredness, aches and pains in the body are

 the signs of poor Immunity in general.


According to Ayurveda the above said symptoms 


occurs in the condition called “Peenasam”. (We 


can correlate this condition with Rhinitis).



In the ‘Peenasam’ condition the patient will have 


the ‘Agnimandhyam’ (Poor digestion). Here the


 patient will have poor digestive power, aversion 

towards food etc.


 When the digestive power


 become feeble the kapha dosha or the unctuous


properties in the body will be aggravated hence it 


leads to the conditions like loss of appetite, 



feverish feeling, tiredness and body pain.




 In the vitiated kapha dosha stage it will create an 


increased mucous coating in the digestive system


 as well as in the respiratory system.


The aggravated intestinal mucosa will interrupt


the proper digestion and absorption of the food 


materials.


There will be lacking of necessary vitamins, 


minerals etc.


It will lead to Poor Immunity.


And also represents signs like wt. Loss, loose 


bowels too.


When the aggravated ‘Kapha dosha’ 


(unctuousness) affecting the respiratory system, 


the increased mucosa lining covers and constricts


the wind pipes which connects the nostrils to 

lungs.
]

So the adequate supply of oxygen to the system 

will be insufficient. 


And shows the signs like 

Sneezing, Running nose, cough etc.


When the infection spreads fever also will be there


 as associated symptom.



How to Manage?


Ayurveda management of ‘agnimandhya.


To improve the digestive power first thing we

 should avoid all the heavy food stuff like meat

oily fried items, dairy products like ghee, butter,

 cheese etc.


And also we should avoid anything heavy to 

digest.


Avoid Day time sleep.


Avoid or reduce sweets


If we got good digestive power the immunity will


be improved.
