Abstract:

There are a lot of immunity boosters in the diet which protects us from the invasion of different diseases. Ayurvedic diets and foods contain a lot of antioxidants that enhance immunity. The best immunity booster having antioxidant properties is Chyawanprash in Ayurveda, which acts as a Rasayana and can be taken for the whole of the year without any side effects for a long time. With heating, its properties do not get destroyed. Our ancient sages
gave us treasures of antioxidants to remain healthy, and by staying healthy, one can worship God to achieve Moksha, which is the ultimate mission of human life.
Vitamin C is a very good immunity booster having the ability to detoxify the body. Surprisingly, it purifies living and non-living things equally. In the
manufacturing of Ayurvedic mineral and metallic medicines, Vitamin C is the key component for Nirmalikarana. Strong toxins become bioavailable after purification.
¹The biochemical estimation of cow urine has shown that it contains sodium, nitrogen, sulfur, Vitamin A, B, C, D, E, minerals, manganese, iron, silicon, chlorine, magnesium, citric, succinic, calcium salts, phosphate, lactose, carbolic acid, enzymes, creatinine, and hormones. Any deficiency or excess of these substances inside the body causes disorders. Cow urine contains all of these substances with having a balanced proximate composition. Therefore, cow urine consumption restores the balance of these substances and helps in curing incurable diseases.
