Kalamegha Strong, made from Kalmegh (Andrographis paniculata), is known in Ayurveda for its potential to boost immunity and help with feverish conditions. It’s got these bitter properties that pacify Pitta and Kapha doshas, which could explain those recurring fevers. Now, how do you take it? Generally, it’s advised to start with maybe one or two tablets daily after meals, but you should consider checking with an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor it more precisely to your needs. Doses can vary with age and condition.
Considering long-term usage, it’s pretty safe, thou there’s a chance with anything herbal or not – you go too hard, and side effects might pop up, like, digestive issues. Always listen to your body. If anything feels off or your symptoms worsen, please get in touch with a healthcare professional.
And about your brother – for kids, I’d recommend being extra cautious because they’re more sensitive to strong herbs. Sometimes, less potent remedies are better. Kalamegha can be intense, so it would be wise to consult an Ayurvedic doctor for specific kid-friendly options, or see if a milder syrup or formulation is more suitable for him.
Is it good for viral? Yup! Andrographis has traditionally been used for its antiviral properties, so yes, it might very well help combat such infections or just generally gear up your immunity.
Having said all this, everyone reacts different, so tracking how you both respond (or don’t) is key. Oh, and remember, rest and proper hydration are invaluable in fighting off fevers. Keep in mind Ayurveda looks beyond symptoms – nurturing a balanced diet according to your dosha, managing stress and getting enough rest is essential. Stay attentive to your needs and respond accordingly.
