Every year in India, during monsoon and seasonal changes, the outbreak of dangerous mosquito-borne diseases like Chikungunya increases rapidly. Due to this, not only the health of thousands of people seriously deteriorates and they have to be admitted to the hospital, but the hard-earned money of the common people is also wasted in treatment. But now Indian scientists have achieved a huge and unprecedented success in dealing with this deadly viral disease.
Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) Researchers have claimed in a recent study that Cow Urine Distillate (CUD) contains some very effective bioactive compounds, which act as a surefire and strong antiviral weapon against Chikungunya virus.
IIT Roorkee team conducted tests in the lab, the results surprised the scientists.
This historic and important research has been conducted by renowned Professor Shaili Tomar and her expert team from the Department of Biosciences and Bioengineering, IIT Roorkee. This detailed research paper has been recognized internationally. ACS Agricultural Science & Technology Has been officially published in the journal. To complete this research, technical support was also taken from many top Ayurveda experts and biomedical institutions across the country.
During tests conducted in the lab, scientists found that cow urine distillate has the amazing ability to almost completely eliminate the chikungunya virus. To reach this conclusion, researchers experimented with human cells infected with chikungunya virus in lab dishes. When just 2 percent of cow urine distillate was added to infected cells, a massive drop in virus potency of up to 90 percent was recorded. At the same time, when the quantity of this mixture was increased to 4 percent, the effect of the virus reduced by more than 99 percent.
Benzoic and hippuric acid stops the spread of viruses by blocking enzymes.
To successfully complete this complex scientific research, IIT researchers resorted to high-tech techniques like virology, metabolomics, molecular docking and cutting-edge biochemical analysis. In-depth investigation revealed that cow urine is naturally occurring within the distillate. Benzoic Acid, Hippuric Acid And Oleic Acid Like extremely powerful organic compounds are found.
These compounds completely inhibit the formation of proteins necessary for the virus to survive and grow in the human body. These acids blocked the most important enzyme of Chikungunya virus from all sides, due to which the virus became completely unable to replicate and died.
99.85% effective super mixture made with nigella and black pepper
The most magical and impressive result of this entire scientific research was seen when the researchers mixed this cow urine distillate with two other natural things. Scientists have extracted elements from nigella seeds in it. Thymoquinone and obtained from black pepper Piperine Mixed in a certain proportion.
The unique mixture of these three natural elements recorded the dangerous viral load present in the lab. 99.85 percent Till completely destroyed. According to Research Head Professor Shaili Tomar, this miraculous finding will be of great help in developing a safe and effective antiviral drug in the coming times against Chikungunya as well as other viral infections spread by mosquitoes like dengue and Zika.
Is direct consumption of cow urine safe? Experts gave a big warning
Although this scientific research has shown very positive and beyond expected results, it does not mean that the general public should directly start consuming raw or home-made cow urine in case of Chikungunya. Medical experts and researchers themselves have issued a strong warning on this.
The substance used in the lab was a highly refined ‘distillate’, prepared using scientific methods. To make this discovery an authentic medicine, it is yet to be extensively tested on humans. Clinical Trials Remains to be done. Using it directly without the written advice of a qualified doctor can prove to be extremely dangerous and harmful for the liver, kidney or stomach.
A strong bridge will be built between traditional Ayurveda knowledge and modern allopathy science.
According to health experts and pharma scientists, this research can prove to be a revolutionary milestone in the future towards manufacturing indigenous medicines that are very affordable, accessible and without any side-effects for the common and poor people of India. This study is the best example of how our ancient traditional Ayurvedic knowledge of India can be tested by modern allopathy science and advanced technologies and presented to the world as an authentic treatment. Since this is an initial result, it will take some time for the medicine to be finally launched in the market. Till then, to avoid seasonal diseases, take medicines only on the advice of the doctor.
