Eco-friendly and sustainable COVID care products.
Since COVID-19 hit the world, everyone has realised that taking care of your health is a priority. We must wear a mask to protect us from various germs. Additionally, we must also be careful of the germs and viruses on our hands. Therefore, we need to use hand sanitisers to stay safe. The prolonged usage of surgical masks or N95 masks contributes to non-degradable waste production, which is harmful to our environment.
Sustainable alternatives are available at Amla earth, which are healthy and effective.
COVID care essentials that we all need
As we all understood after the first wave of the pandemic, prevention is better than cure. While researchers worked day and night to find different cures for COVID, what helped the most was a person's immunity, good health, and preventive measures to try and avoid getting infected. As we went through the subsequent waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, all the healthy habits we adopted for COVID Care started to show better overall health results for our body and mind. But many of these solutions were toxic to nature or caused an excessive strain on the ecology because of their manufacturing and disposal processes.
Cloth Masks:
To reduce waste, it is possible to use washable and reusable cloth masks which manage to filter 90% of the droplets and one-third of the aerosols. In addition, applying a filter inside can increase the mask's filtering effect. Therefore, it is a more ecological solution than disposable masks.
Skin-friendly hand sanitisers:
Hand sanitisers are a must in these COVID days. Once you step out, you need to sanitise your hands multiple times. These sanitisers contain alcohol which can make your hand dry and harm them when used multiple times. Hence a skin-friendly sanitiser is a must.
Sanitiser cases: Everything should have a place of its own. So a sanitiser case or pouch is a must-have to keep the sanitiser bottle. The organic case ensures no spillage or gooey residue that spoils other things in your bag. Moreover, these cases are fashionably chic with attractive designs and purely organic, eco-friendly materials.
Charcoal air purifier:
Charcoal is a great air purifier. Activated charcoal is a prevalent component in the filters of air purifiers. It effectively reduces airborne contaminants, including viruses, in closed spaces like rooms, offices, and even cars. Our traditional knowledge of scientific advances made in the past is equally relevant and helpful to date.
Immunity boosting:
Never before was immunity so essential to use them now in these COVID times.
Building up one's immunity is vital. India has a rich reserve of medicinal herbs. These herbs have proved their importance for hundreds of years. Neem, giloy, Haldi and more. They are available in capsule form or powder form. Also available are special kadhas and concoctions, which can be consumed as herbal teas. They work on multiple organ systems and bring inner balance hence, slowly developing one's immunity.
