Homeopathic medicines strengthen immunity by increasing body’s IgE levels (Immuno Globulin E, a type of protein in the body, responsible for fighting with allergens and viruses) making patient less susceptible to the allergens and infections like corona virus, swine flu etc. Homeopathic immune boosters are the homeopathic version comparable to vaccines but prepared using a method of potentization, transforming the original substance into curative measures.

There are following homeopathic medicines those can act as an immune booster during such epidemics. You may consult an expert for dose and repetition as it may vary with the age and the status of immunity.

1)      Arsenic Album

2)      Influenzinum

3)      Justicia Adhatoda

I am suffering from cold and cough now. What should I do?

Don't worry about seasonal cold and cough unless you've been in contact with infected persons or travelers from China in the recent past.
In case your cough is severe with no relief with medicines, visit a doctor who would guide you further.

 

Should I stop eating meat and eggs ?

No. But avoid having raw (uncooked) meat. Make sure that meat and eggs are properly cooked.

 

Shall I start taking Vitamins?

Don't panic. Taking vitamins does not help to protect you from the corona virus. However immunity can be enhanced with Homeopathic medicines.

Lastly, corona virus is not an unknown entity or a mystery virus. It's speed of spreading and the rapidity of the symptoms is what makes it lethal. But right now we shouldn't worry and panic.

Do not believe in fear mongering social media messages or posts without confirming them for yourself from an authentic source.
