Berlin's Immanuel Hospital Launches Ayurveda Center Amid Respiratory Disease Surge
Berlin's Immanuel Hospital has launched a pioneering Ayurveda center, focusing on respiratory health. This comes as the Robert Koch Institute warns of rising acute respiratory disease activity, with the flu season underway and colds expected to surge.
The new Ayurveda center, a pilot project attached to the hospital's naturopathy department, offers treatments for patients. While specific details about its role in managing respiratory diseases during the current flu and COVID-19 season are unclear, the timing coincides with an increase in respiratory illness cases.
Home remedies can provide relief for symptoms of colds, coughs, and hoarseness. Chicken soup, rich in zinc, can help thin nasal secretions, while honey has anti-inflammatory effects and is a safe remedy for coughs in children over one year old. However, officially reported coronavirus infections in Berlin remain low, with only 125 cases in the latest reporting week.
As the number of people with respiratory illnesses increases, the Immanuel Hospital's Ayurveda center may play a role in managing symptoms and supporting patients. With the flu season in full swing and colds expected to rise, family doctors may see an influx of patients in the coming weeks.
