As coronavirus is spreading rapidly, the fear among people is also increasing. During these unprecedented times, there is chaos among citizens as to which method is better to prevent corona. Scientists are researching day and night to develop the vaccine for this virus so that our lives can get back to normal. Currently, the only option available to fight against COVID-19 is to enhance the body’s natural defence system. Regular exercise, warm water throughout the day, and daily intake of Turmeric are among the several measures one can take as a preventive measure to boost immunity against COVID-19.

Let's take a look at why these measures are suggested and how they can help us during this time of the pandemic.

Regular Exercise:

Regular exercise has a positive effect on both physical and mental health, and amid this pandemic, we have to maintain both physical and mental well-being. As most of the people are staying at home and not doing enough physical activity, their health can be deteriorated over time. Many people are coping with anxiety, boredom, financial concerns, fear, isolation, stress, and sadness, which leads to higher calorie consumption that promotes weight gain.

Here are some benefits of exercising during COVID-19 pandemic:

• Experts suggest that regular exercise can boost your immunity and help your body fight deadly viruses like a corona.
• It will burn all the extra calories you are consuming sitting at home.
• It is the best approach to relieve stress and anxiety.
• Regular exercise helps you fall asleep faster and also improves the quality of sleep.

Regular physical activity will help you in maintaining physical health and mental well-being.

Warm Water Throughout The Day:

Although the claims that warm water can cure coronavirus have proved to be inaccurate, there are numerous other benefits of drinking warm water that can help you fight the COVID-19. Drinking warm water helps improve circulation and flushes out toxins from your body. And, it also helps relieve congestion since it loosens mucous. Keeping yourself hydrated will keep your mucous membranes moist, but it will not keep you safe from infections. Warm water also helps clear your sinuses.

Here are some benefits of drinking warm water.

• Warm water helps with healthier digestion and reduces the risk of constipation by supporting regular bowel movements.
• It helps with body detoxification by flushing the toxins from the body.
• It also helps relieve congestion since it loosens mucous and clear sinuses.
• A cup of warm water help manages stress and anxiety.

Drinking warm water will not reduce the possibility of getting infected, but it will provide other benefits that will help fight COVID-19.

Turmeric:

Turmeric is a spice that can be found in every Indian household, and amid coronavirus pandemic, it has been proved to a great immunity booster agent. Because of its medicinal properties, turmeric has been used as a healing and reviving spice for centuries. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic where there is no vaccine discovered yet, turmeric has yet again proved to be a healing agent. Turmeric milk AKA Haldi doodh is a traditional healing portion for healing injuries, easing pain and soothing sore & scratchy throat. The fundamental ingredient of turmeric, Curcumin, is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that is very helpful during this pandemic.

Here are some benefits of Turmeric:
