Ayurveda Immune Booster

from 7 nights, double room, Full board

£1,467

Our body is permanently exposed to a variety of "attackers", such as viruses, bacteria and fungi. Whether these can harm our body depends primarily on our defenses - our immune system.

Ayurveda says that 80% of our immune system is located in the digestive tract. Accordingly, when we talk about strengthening the immune system, the top priority is to strengthen the digestive system. This system has the task of recognizing all substances that are absorbed through food, the respiratory tract and the skin, processing them and then either incorporating them for the benefit of health or excreting them as quickly as possible.

Ojas" and the so-called waste products (Ama) also play a decisive role for the immune system. Ojas, is called the finest relative substance in the body, which is the result of a complete digestion and transformation of all substances. Our "Ojas" makes us vital, immune and happy. Ayurveda calls Ojas the most important immune-boosting substance of the body.

The waste substance, or Ama, is created when food or even mental matter cannot be fully processed by our digestive system, thereby hindering our vital energy. Ama weakens and burdens the immune system.
