How can Ayurveda help improve immunity naturally? - #12576

Anonymously

I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather lately, and I’m looking for ways to boost my immunity. I don’t want to rely on antibiotics or synthetic supplements, so I’m considering Ayurveda for immunity. I’ve heard that Ayurvedic herbs can naturally strengthen the immune system, but I’m not sure where to start. What are the best Ayurvedic herbs or remedies that help in improving immunity? I’ve heard of Tulsi, Ashwagandha, and Amla—are these really effective? How should they be taken to get the maximum benefit? Is it better to take them as teas, powders, or in capsules? Also, how long does it take to notice the effects of using Ayurveda for immunity? Should these herbs be used daily for prevention, or should they be taken only when feeling sick? Another thing I want to know—does Ayurveda focus only on herbs, or are lifestyle changes and diet also important in strengthening immunity? Are there any specific foods or habits I should adopt to support my immune system through Ayurveda? If anyone has used Ayurveda for immunity, please share your experience! What herbs or remedies worked for you, and how did they help improve your overall health?
