AYURVEDIC MEDICINE for CROUP, and STREP THROAT

Croup is a situation in which the higher airways swells and gets irritating. The virus that causes the common cold is also liable for croup, and it mostly happen in the fall and early winter. It normally affects the kids who are 6 months to 3 years old but it can also affect older kids, so you have to be careful all the time. Croup typically occurs a few days after the start of a cold. Croup is infectious. As children grow older and their lungs and windpipes develop and they are less likely to get croup.

Streptococcal pharyngitis, also known as strep throat, is a contamination of the back of the throat including the tonsils by bacteria. Strep throat is spread by respirational droplets from an infected person. It may be spread openly or by touching something that has droplets on it and then touching the mouth, nose, or eyes. Some people may carry the bacteria without symptoms. It may also be spread by skin infected with strep.

SYMPTOMS OF CROUP

·       

    Cough with a barking noise. It is also called sound of a barking seal.

·       Stuffy or runny nose with a fever.

·       High-pitched or squeaking noise while breathing in.

If the airways carry on swelling, it becomes hard for a child to breathe. The child may make a high-pitched or screeching noise while breathing in — this is called stridor. A child may also breathe very fast or have retractions (when the skin between the ribs pulls in during breathing). In the most serious cases, a child may appear whitish or have a bluish color nearby the mouth due to a lack of oxygen.

Bark of Arjuna tree is a popular ayurvedic medicine which can also be used by people who don’t have heart disease as it prevents such diseases and don’t have any side effects.

Ashwagandha is also used in Ayurveda to cure heart diseases, it strengthens the immune system of our body and also keeps our hypertension, stress and anxiety in control.

Gymnema leaf known as “Gurmar” (destroyer of sugar) in Hindi is known to increase the insulin level and in some cases it may even enhance the pancreatic cell growth.

Cinnamon, recent researches shows that cinnamon can reduce the sugar level of the body, it comes from the bark of cinnamon tree.

Holy Basil also called as Tulsi in India is also known to reduce blood sugar level and is one of the most commonly used medicines.

Ayurvedic Medicine for High Blood Pressure:

Trifala i.e. mixture of three herbs namely Amla, Haritaki and Bibhitaki is one of the oldest and most popularly used formula in Ayurveda. It can reduces hypertension, stress and cholesterol of our body.

It is a combination of 12 different Yoga sans in a defined sequence which completely purifies your body.

Panchkarma which means ‘five therapies’ in Hindi is a group of five therapies used for detoxification of the body. There are two types of therapies in Panchkarma one is Oleation in which various oils are used to massage your body which makes the body toxin free. And the other is Fomentation in which sweating is used as a measure to make the body toxin free.
