A strong immune system – Do’s in the fight against Corona

The corona virus appears to be inexorably: It is now extremely important to comply with the required hygiene measures and to avoid crowds of people so that the spread of the virus can be slowed down. Slowing down because it is almost impossible to stop an epidemic completely. Damage limitation can only be practiced by preventing peak loads in hospitals and medical systems.

According to statements by the federal government and the Robert Koch Institute, 60 to 70% of the German population is expected to become infected with the corona virus. According to current figures, the disease is relatively mild in up to 80% of those who are infected; some of those affected remain completely symptom-free. In the remaining 20%, however, a moderate to severe course of the disease can be expected, which can lead to death in the worst case. This group mainly includes the elderly or chronically ill.

In addition to the measures mentioned (hygiene, avoidance of crowds of people), everyone can also do something for themselves: to strengthen your own immune system so that in the event of an illness you are well prepared for the disease and you can quickly recover after a mild course.

Moringa – the ayurvedic miracle plant

The moringa tree reaches a height of up to 8 meters in the first year of growth. Due to this extremely rapid growth, all the necessary processes in the plant have to be carried out at the highest level, for example the nutrient supply or the exchange of information. Moringa can help you strengthen your immune system: Scientists have found that Moringa olifeira is one of the most nutrient-rich plants on the earth. Its substances contain more iron than spinach, more vitamin C than oranges and more calcium than cow’s milk. The Vitamin A and Moringa’s proteins can be extremely useful, especially for vegans, to meet your daily needs. In addition, the leaves of the plant contain 18 of the 20 most known essential amino acids.

Other ingredients of Moringa olifeira are

  • Vitamin D, E, K,
  • Copper and zinc
  • Omega -3, 6 and 9
  • Secondary phytochemicals: chlorophyll, lutein, zeaxanthin

The taste of Moringa olifeira is partly reminiscent of horseradish, which is mainly due to the spicy essential oils that are in the roots.
