Herbal immunomodulators are substances which stimulate the components of immune system including both innate and adaptive immune responses.
Herbal Immunomodulators such as Tulasi, Garlic, Turmeric, Amla, Ashwagandha, Green Tea, Black Cumin, Ginger etc., are naturally obtained, safe and helpful in achieving optimum effectiveness of the immune system. Herbal Immunomodulators have potent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, stress relieving and cytoprotective properties.
The use of standardized immunomodulators of Sri Sri Tattva in specific doses will be helpful in achieving a higher protective antibody titers and development of more effective cell mediate immune response for protection against COVID-19. Therapy will be monitored by reduction in pro-inflammatory markers such as IL-6, INF alfa, C-reactive protein and improvement in anti-inflammatory markers such as interferon gamma, delta and Ig G antibody titers. In addition to this, role of herbal immunomodulatory formulations of Sri Sri Tattva is being explored in the inhibition of viral entry in collaboration with German researchers as a part of Ayurgenomics project.
