Dr Giridhar KarajgaonkarThe number of deaths caused due to Covid-19 related complications have registered an alarming increase, more particularly involving the breathlessness. I feel, if the ventilators or use of oxygen is meticulously planned and unnecessary use of oxygen is avoided, it will help check the number of deaths and reduce requirement for oxygen.Coronavirus causes a storm of Cytokinin which increases the secretion of conducting zone of the respiratory system.These secretions are thick, sticky and mucoid and block the conducting zone of respiratory system. This obstacle causes the breathing issue leading to drop in oxygen percentage. In such cases, if you provide more oxygen with pressure, these secretions would go downwards causing pneumonia, eventually pushing the patients into the danger zones.To avoid such a situation, first we have to liquify these secretions with mucolytic agents and that can be removed by suction. This is done best by cardiovascular surgeons and anaesthetist. Once the passage is cleared, the oxygen reaches the body, solving the breathlessness issue on a big scale while other treatment should be continued.The oxygen concentration in the air is about 21 per cent and it’s enough for one to breath easy.To be on the safer side and as a precaution against viruses and bacteria, we could also make use of ethyl alcohol, but the concentration should be up to 1000 PPM (part per million, 780 ml water mixed with 1 ML ethyl alcohol), and taken in moderate quantity. If the limit is crossed and quantity exceeds, it would cause toxic effect. Instead of cure, it would turn into a curse.There are alternatives too which include all alcohol-based tonics, B Complex in liquid format, Drakshasav, AsavArishta, Zandu pancharisht.Nitric oxide (nitrogen) – It’s available plenty (78.3%) in the atmosphere, but doesn’t go inside the body through respiration. It is present in green leafy vegetables particularly spinach and methi, pomegranates, dark chocolates, citrus fruits, beet root and garlic. After eating, when digested, it is deposited in inner layer of blood vessel. This NO2, in the presence of enzyme Guolylyne, electrically charged oxygen is released and kills all the viruses and bacteria. This oxygen is engulfed by macrophages (one of the white blood cells) due to which immunity is increased. After release of oxygen, the remaining part is nitric mono oxide which is exhaled through respiration.Of late, the western scientists have suggested that Bhramari is also effective against coronavirus. The Bhramari sound vibrations with specific frequency spread in the atmosphere and kill the virus and bacteria, inside the body. This stimulates each and every cell of the body. In Bhramari the brain is thoughtless and gets the rest. Because of this stimulating enzyme and hormones are secreted by the brain. One of the enzymes gualylyne reacts with nitric acid in the blood vessel to release electrically charged oxygen. Other enzymes strengthen the T and B lymphocytes and immunity is increased.Now, even the experts in our country have begun to relook into the coronavirus phenomena, recently the AIIMS director Randeep Guleria was telling that Covid is a mild disease and there was nothing to panic. Another theory has come out that the corona strain prevailing in the country is not lethal. One can imagine, if it can be mild and not lethal, we don’t require to be panicky and go for expensive treatment, for a thing that can be tackled easily.(The writer is a senior surgeon, exponent and teacher of Pranayama and author)
