TY - JOUR T1 - Importance of Functional Nutrition Components on New Coronavirus Disease (Covid-19) and Other Viral Communicable Diseases AU - Özdemir, Nilgün AU - Mohammed, Sarhan AU - Çon, Ahmet PY - 2021 DA - October DO - 10.3153/FH21030 JF - Food and Health JO - Food Health PB - Özkan ÖZDEN WT - DergiPark SN - 2602-2834 SP - 286 EP - 299 VL - 7 IS - 4 LA - en AB - There are no foods to prevent or treat the coronavirus alone; however, it has been proven that a healthy and balanced nutrition is crucial for health, particularly in times when the immune system might need to fight back. The present study provides insights about the properties of bioactive components of foods and herbs as a possible adjuvant support the human immune system against infections. Also, has focused on the interactions of the intestinal microbiota with human health in the treatment of Covid-19 and other viral infections. More research with strong recommendations is needed to better understand causality.
