It has become very necessary to safeguard yourself from the secondary infections and health issues after the recovery from Covid – 19.
Some of the complications being witnessed in patients recovered from Covid-19 include impact on lungs, kidneys, heart, and threatening mucormycosis.
Covid-19 infection is unlike other viral infections as it involves multiple organs and organ systems. After recovery, it has different long-term and short-term impacts on these organs, and a person takes a longer duration to feel well-being.
There have been several reports of a rise in heart attacks and other cardiac involvement in patients who have recovered from COVID-19. Some could also be at risk of developing new diabetes, and kidney damage could be triggered. People are at risk of developing mental health disorders.
In terms of Ayurvedic Immune Health, a holistic approach is essential to support recovery and prevent further complications. Also, a few symptoms, such as lingering cough, chronic weakness, headaches, myalgia, and brain fog could linger weeks or months after recovery and require evaluation.
HOW CAN WE OVERCOME THESE ISSUES?
After the life threatening covid-19 infection people are getting physically and psychologically exhausted and living with stress of getting all above said complications.
It has some simple solutions:
We need to take care of Psychological Health – People experience emotional disturbance, irritability, insomnia, depression, brain fogging etc. This may be due to isolation, demise of loving ones, continuous stress of this infectious disease and negativity in the environment due to pandemic conditions. We would advise to stay positive by sharing positivity, performing yoga, meditation, breathing exercises, staying in early morning sunlight, sharing your experiences that will be helpful for others. People who believe they can chant or listen to positive mantras. This will help in creating positive energy in the environment and within immunity – After this viral infection your immunity drops badly and you become prone to many other infectious diseases like black fungus. So take potent immunity boosting supplements.
Take care of physical health – As people come out of covid -19 they are more susceptible for other infections and health issues related to lungs, heart, kidney, brain, liver etc. If you plan wisely our supplements, diet, and lifestyle and take care of optimum hygiene with a positive mind, you can overcome it very soon.
The most dreadful thing nowadays is Mucormycosis, which is black fungus infection. Which is attacking lungs post covid infection and this is mostly due to low immunity the body is unable to fight it and infection is becoming life threatening.
We would say, after coming out of the hospital or home isolation/ post covid keep taking immunity supplements ,follow all the sanitization measures, if possible place an air purifier and oxygen concentrator if you are staying in a polluted area.
Here are few recommendations of Ayurvedic health supplements to fight post covid health issues:
Flucomune – It is an Ayurvedic herbal supplement which boosts the natural defense of the body and takes care of all mild to moderate respiratory infections. Flucomune not only help to prevent but also help to fight covid infection and helps in quicker recovery by boosting immunity and pacifying the symptoms.

Neem plus & Vidang can be a solution to prevent black fungus —
Nowadays a big threat of getting mucormycosis commonly known Black fungus , is there in every body’s mind during covid or post covid. We strongly recommend Neem plus and vidang to prevent this issue. Neem is a well known antifungal agent and takes care of all kinds of fungal infections. Quercetin and ß-sitosterol, are the polyphenolic flavonoids found in Neem known to have strong antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Vidang has been used since ages in classical Ayurveda medicines and in folklore medicines as potent antimicrobial agents . It is used in lung diseases, fungus infections, mouth ulcer, sore throat and pneumonia, heart diseases, used as an antibacterial, anti fungal, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Research shows that Vidang has strong antifungal activity on various strains of fungus.
Arjuna — Arjuna is an excellent heart tonic and cardio protective supplement. It can help to prevent cardiac issues arising post covid. It gives strength to the cardiac muscles, improves the circulation and prevents the heart muscle from ischemic damage. Arjuna exhibits anticoagulant and ant-platelet activities similar to aspirin, which can be very helpful to prevent clotting issues.
Haldi – Haldi contains bioactive compound Curcumin. It has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and is a very strong antioxidant. Curcumin also acts as an anticoagulant. By inhibiting coagulation cascade components, or clotting factors, it prevents clots formation.
“Last but not the least, another herbal or we can say Ayurvedic aid to keep your home protected, is the DHOOPANA Ayurvedic way of sanitizing your home environment.”
Herbal fumigation, the Dhoopana is highly effective against microorganisms, especially bacteria and fungi. Fumigation (Dhoopana) with antimicrobial herbs is one such method used since ancient time in Ayurveda practice for disinfection , labor rooms, operation theaters, therapy rooms ,homes, temples , environment etc. Dhoopana is safe, cost effective and have additional benefits, like it give positivity, pleasant to senses and brain, it soothes the respiratory tract. The herbo-mineral and animal origin volatile content of dhoopana shows strong antimicrobial activity by trapping and destroying the infectious microorganisms.
