New Delhi, July 15 India has witnessed a deadly second wave of Coronavirus and concerns about the third wave are equally worrying. In addition to getting a vaccine, there are ways to focus on wellness and self-care during a possible third wave.

Even though few vaccines are available in India, there are few people who are advised not to get the vaccine. Trials on Indian children have recently begun and it may take some time for the vaccination process to begin for all the children. Go easy on yourself and remember these easy six tips to battle the third wave, suggested by Sushant Raorane, Co-founder and Director, Adroit Biomed Pvt Ltd:

Exercise

Staying active improves physical endurance, mental health, lung capacity and reduces risk of many diseases like diabetes and hypertension. Elderly people are advised to walk while youngsters are advised to perform high intensity exercises a few times per week. Choose early mornings or late evenings when it is less busy.

Build your immunity

Focus on what you eat. Eat healthy fats, protein and good carbohydrates. Nutraceuticals including zinc, selenium, vitamin C and vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, curcumin, glutathione, N-acetylcysteine have the potential to amplify the body's defence system against the virus. They are known for their anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant and immune boosting properties. The pandemic has led to identification of some promising nutraceuticals for Covid management. One of them, Glutathione, a master cellular antioxidant, is synthesized by the body itself. Literature suggests that oral glutathione improves an individual's immunity so people with Covid-19 who have low levels of glutathione and such people may have a faster recovery if supplemented with oral glutathione. Glutone MD, orally dissolving mini effervescent tablets made from purest Setria Glutathione help in boosting immunity and the OD-Eff technology used in the formulation improves absorption of glutathione into the blood.

COVID-appropriate behaviour

Avoid crowded places, wear a mask, get vaccinated if you are eligible and most importantly be aware of your body. Contact your physician in case you develop any symptoms and avoid self-treatment. Your immune system is your shield, so boost it and make it strong.

De-stress

There are different ways to relax and distress including meditation, yoga, listening to music, talking to family, painting, etc. Stress
