Ayurveda says

''स्वस्थस्य स्वास्थ्यरक्षणं अतुरस्य विकार प्रशमनाम्चा"

Which Means

Till today WHO is also running behind that aim (That is similar to that only the language is different) to achieve a disease-free world and to promote the normal health of the world population. However, until today we are not able to get that goal.

Ayurveda believes in such a state of health where you will not effect by any microbes, and if somehow, you effected then your enhanced body protecting mechanism will help you in fighting battle in the manifestation of flu. It is often discussed that prevention is better than fighting with germs.

Ayurveda promotes its Yuktikrit Immunity (Acquired Immunity) concept for controlling the fear and chances of getting the flu. Ayurveda says the use of Rasayan is the best way to improve the body defence mechanism. There are many Rasayan mentioned in Ayurveda for the enhancement of body defence.
