Natural Treatment for Corona Virus Infection or Prevention

Allow me to give you a natural prescription for the current corona virus outbreak

This therapy can be used both as a prophylaxis and treatment

The list below is some of the best natural anti-viral agents I know.

The 1 – 6 in the list is available in the form of aromatic oils which you can add into a kettle of boiling water to inhale.

The steam will carry these essential oils as they are heat-volatile.

Please see my explanation on steam inhalation here:

Anti-Virus and Immune Enhancement:

The herbs with anti-bacterial and anti-virus (some of them found to be extremely powerful) are from 7 – 22 which  can be taken orally together with 5 ml. cod liver oil + 200 mg vitamin C tds x 3/52 (3 times a day for 3 weeks) as an adjunct therapy  to steam inhalation

1.       Eucalyptus oil

2.       Cinnamon oil

3.       Garlic oil

4.       Ginger oil

5.       Camphor (Cinnamomum camphora)

6.       Lemon balm oil

7.       Echinacea

8.       Fennel

9.       Sage

10.   Oregano

11.   Garlic

12.   Propolis with honey

13.   Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary)

14.   Lemon balm

15.   Basil

16.   Peppermint

17.   Astragalus

18.   Ginger

19.   Sambucus

20.   Dandelion

21.   Licorice (containing Glycyrrhizin, liquiritigenin, and glabridin)

22.   Ginseng

I give this prescription to the best of my training, knowledge and clinical experience dealing with viral infections from previous case studies which can be extended to randomized large scale clinical trials with matched control groups. 

Clinical Trials and Research:

This should not be a problem for medical researchers and clinicians who wish to do their doctorate degree  such a higher MD or a PhD or to publish some research papers

I do not claim the above is the specific standard treatment prescribed for corona virus infection, but it is worth a try if not for treatment, at least as a preventive approach in view of the current pandemic

It is not possible for me to explain the bio-active principles, chemical composition and properties, their pharmacognosy and their dynamics (mode of action) of every ingredient given in the prescription as that will take several chapters with a long list of references.

I formulated this treatment modality using the best of my knowledge in natural medicine, and if you trust me, it is worth a try.

Hence giving just the list of medicinal herbs that exhibit moderate to very strong anti-virus and anti-bacterial properties, together with warm steam inhalation, plus adjunct oral consumption of anti-viral herbs, spices and foods would do.

The first ethical principle in the practice of naturopathic (natural) medicine is “primum non nocere” (Latin for “first do no harm”).

Hence if you are already showing signs and symptoms of corona virus infection do NOT delay going to a hospital where they can manage aggressively in the event you need to be ventilated or using other supportive treatment.

The oils given from 1 – 6 above are very heat-volatile and should come out together with the warm steam.

Procedure in Steam Inhalation: 

Add a few drops of these oils – as much as you can find from the pharmacy or outlets dealing with essential oils or aromatherapy into a kettle of boiling water with the sprout ABOVE the water level.

Use an umbrella to trap the emerging steam by standing about a meter from the kettle sprout to prevent scalding.

Stand beneath the umbrella that collects the steam, and inhale the warm steam for 20 minutes each session

Repeat the procedure 3 – 4 times a day until the pandemic flattens off and no more cases reported.

I trust I have given my best through God’s Guidance
