The Andhra regional service chief suggested that every Arogya Bharati volunteer should wish for the health of everyone in society and spread the organization’s objectives to all people. He delivered this speech during a one-day training workshop held on Sunday at Vignana Vihara School, Satyanarayanapuram.
During the workshop, Arogya Bharati President Dr. P. S. Rao explained the first aid to be given during a heart attack and also demonstrated CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) to be performed in case of cardiac arrest.
Dr. A. V. L. Narayana explained about medicinal plants and their uses. He mentioned plants such as Uttareni for side pain, Tippateega for diabetes, Parijatham for sciatica, Kondapindi leaves for kidney stones, Drumstick (Moringa) for anemia, and Papaya for conditions like jaundice and dengue, along with several other medicinal plants.
Dr. Nivedya DrNivedya S Reddy spoke about home remedies, explaining that for some illnesses it is not always necessary to visit a doctor. She said that including natural ingredients such as mint, garlic, bael fruit, amla, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, aloe vera, tulsi, neem, cumin, pepper, and fenugreek as part of daily food can help prevent diseases. She also explained the harmful effects of incompatible food combinations (Viruddha Ahara) such as milk with fruits, ghee with honey, fish with curd, and consuming cold drinks with hot food.
In this program, Arogya Bharati Andhra–Telangana coordinator Kumar Swamy, treasurer Shankara Narayana, and Prithvi Raju participated. Around 50 volunteers from five districts attended the workshop. The program was supervised by Tilak and Dr. Radha.
