Recently there has been a finding and claim of some doctors that certain foods can help in the treating of Coronovirus. What we have learned is the importance of keeping the immune system strong at such a time.
These foods were mainly Chocolate (particularly the dark type), grapes and green tea. Apparently they are anti viral.
I then started to think, from what I know of the Quran and the foods and beverages recommended by Islamic and there are a few that may help with such viruses and illnesses, although they have not been scientifically verified.
1) Honey.
The Quran mentions honey in the Quran and describes it as a cure and remedy. Honey is know to strengthen the immune system and is very useful for throat infections and colds and flu.
It may help a person in their battle with viruses, infections and so forth because it strengthens the body.
The fact that it is a source of fat that a person needs when suffering from any lung related malady makes it suitable for helping patients.
Not all honey is the same and pure, unadulterated honey is probably more expensive and more difficult to find. However, it is the pure variety that will likely be beneficial.
2) Black seed and its oil.
Black seed has been described as having a cure for everything except death. It is especially useful for breathing and lung related difficulties.
The oil of black seed is used to treat breathing problems, asthma, allergies and bronchitis and so forth.
I did read in a book however, that a person should not take more than 25mg a day. Too much may not be good for one.
3) Olive oil.
Olive and olive oil are mentioned in the Quran and are said to come from a blessed tree. It contains many anti oxidants and is said to be anti fungal, anti bacterial and strengthens the immune system and body.
Anyone with problems with their lungs and breathing needs to increase their fat intake in order to oxygenise the body.
4). Milk.
Perhaps it is not something that is considered a remedy to many people but milk has been mentioned as a drink that is not only nourishing but also can be a remedy and cure for certain illnesses.
Milk strengthens the body and provides a good level of fat, which may be needed in such conditions.
5) Pumpkin.
Pumpkin is another food mentioned in the Quran that is mentioned as curing. The Prophet Yunus peace be upon him is reported to have eaten pumpkin after escaping from the below of the whale.
His skin was burned and he must have been run down and weak.
Pumpkin is full of healthy vitamins, such as vitamin C and A amongst others. These strengthen the immune system.
In my own experience, making a warm winter soup with pumpkin and garlic is a delicious remedy to many types of colds and flu.
So these are five different foods, oils and beverages from the Quran and Islamic sources that may have some benefit against the coronovirus.
However, they are not scientifically tested and I am not making any claim to miracle cures. I am not responsible for anyone not cured by this information.
People should also educate themselves and do their own research.
