Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

There are no exact treatment for COVID-19.  Prevention is the core objective of Ayurveda which maintains health of a healthy individual. The Delhi police personnel (front line warriors of Capital territory region, New Delhi, India)  involved in managing discipline and lockdown across the country during the first wave of COVID-19 will be provided with  “AYURAKSHA” kits by the All-India Institute of Ayurveda (AIIA) under the guidance of Ministry of AYUSH as prophylaxis to enhance their immunity status. The “AYURAKSHA” kit contains Sanshamani Vati (prepared from Tinospora cordifolia), AYUSH Kadha and Anu Taila for nasal application). The study will determine the efficacy of Ayurveda intervention in terms of post-interventional IgG COVID-19 Positivity, improving immunity levels, quality of life (QoL) against COVID-19, and changes in their respective haematological and biochemical parameters among trial group as compared to control group participants.
