We live all our lives in contact with microorganisms, some of which are harmful to
us. These harmful microorganisms are referred to as pathogens and cause many
diseases. The immune system, which is made up of special cells, proteins, tissues,
and organs, defend us against germs and microorganisms every day.
In most cases, the immune system does a great job of keeping us healthy and
preventing infections from overwhelming the body. But sometimes problems with
the immune system can lead to illness and infection. This is particularly true of
these times; unhealthy lifestyle practices, stress, environmental pollution and other
factors have rendered our immune systems weak. Needless to say infections have
come back to haunt us.
The understanding of disease and infection in Ayurveda Herbs deviates from the
conventional understanding. According to Ayurveda, our bodies weaken because of
an imbalance in the body that creates an environment within the body where the
virus, bacteria and the other pathogens can survive and cause disease.
Guduchi effectively suppresses oxidative stress and thereby helps the body fight
infections.
Several lifestyle measures like diet and yoga, along with immune building herbs, are
advised as a prevention strategy while in diseased condition various herbs are used
to alleviate the condition.
Various studies have demonstrated the role of oxidative stress in the development
and exacerbation of infectious and inflammatory conditions. And many herbs, by
virtue of their potent antioxidant activities, are not only powerful scavengers of
bacteria but also help suppress the associated infection and inflammation. Guduchi
effectively suppresses oxidative stress and thereby helps the body fight infections.
The herb is also known to alleviate irritable conditions of the mucus membrane,
strengthen the immune system and provide resistance in recurring infections.
