Whereas Western medicine provides instant relief to these symptoms, Ayurveda focuses on providing the foundation upon which our body builds its defence system, known in Ayurveda as Ojas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to <\/span><b>Dr Deepak, Ayurvedic Medical Expert at Tata, 1mg, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">building a strong immune system does not mean taking random supplements. A strong immune system is achieved by aligning your daily routines with those of Mother Nature and supplementing the body with natural herbs, which helps build a solid foundation for long-term health and resilience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Numerous Ayurvedic herbs have been used for centuries and are known to support and enhance immunity.
