Tuberculosis

Today is World TB day. Let's bring awareness and work together to eliminate TB.

Tuberculosis or TB, is an infectious disease caused by bacteria, usually Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is contagious as it is transmitted through respiratory fluids in the air. Lungs are the majorly affected organs. Suitable treatment must be provided before it can prove fatal. Prolonged cough, fever, fatigue, loss of appetite and weight are few symptoms of TB. Poor immune system is one of the major causes for chronic TB.

Ayurvedic treatments suggest the strengthening of the immune system. Paste of drumstick leaves and black pepper powder with a bit of lemon juice and salt taken every morning helps in pacifying this disease. Juice of Indian Gooseberry with honey can provide vigor and vitality. There are many herbs that can help provide immunity. Healthy and sufficient diet is one of the best ways to prevent TB.
