An Analysis of Antioxidant and Anti- Microbial Properties of Therapeutic Kadha Tablet for Immunity Booster

Abstract

A unique kind of infectious pneumonia brought on by the SARS coronavirus is known as a severe acute respiratory syndrome. Worldwide efforts are currently being made to tackle the coronavirus sickness, and scientific communities are working tirelessly to provide vaccines. Only a few particular medicinal interventions are available for SARS-CoV-2, nevertheless. We can strengthen our immunity with natural items in addition to other public health measures implemented to prevent this infection. The potential of common spices and herbs as antiviral and immunity-boosting substances has been highlighted in this article. During COVID-19, a questionnaire-based online survey on home remedies was done among a large number of participants (n=531) from diverse nations and age categories (13–68). The study found that 71.8% of people are using kadha to enhance immunity and fight infections. The majority of people (86.1%) believe that kadha has no adverse effects, while 13.9% believe the opposite. A total of 93.6% of respondents believe that spices can improve immunity and help treat coronavirus or other viral infections. For increasing their immunity, most people use chyawanprash, vitamin C, and tulsi drops. As a result, we draw the conclusion from the survey and the literature that spices and herbs are important in the fight against viral infections.
