Homeopathy for immune health

Coronavirus is spreading and there is so much fear-mongering going on. But let’s put your mind at ease. Our body has an inbuilt defense mechanism i.e. our immune system that does a remarkable job of defending us against disease-causing microorganisms like fungus, viruses and bacteria. But then if you’re worried that you have low immunity, you can improve your immune health with homeopathy.

Symptoms of low immunity

Changing lifestyles, increased junk food consumption, lack of exercise or outdoor activities and sports are some of the things that are affecting immune health adversely. Some of the symptoms of low immunity are:

• Often suffering from common cold and hay fever symptoms
• Having lots of stomach problems like frequent diarrhoea, gas or constipation
• Slow healing of wounds
• Having frequent infections
  • More than four ear infections in a year
  • Developing pneumonia more than once during a one-year period
  • Suffering from chronic sinusitis or more than three episodes of bacterial sinusitis in a year
• Feeling tired all the time

Prevention, in any case, is always the best medicine. So the best thing you can do right now is to strengthen your immune system. Here are a few suggestions:

• Wash your hands frequently and wear a mask if you’re in a crowded area or if your immune system is compromised.
• Eat foods that are super-rich in minerals, vitamins, and nutrients like green leafy vegetables.
