Overview of The Use of Supplements in The COVID-19 Pandemic Process

Abstract

Coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is a newly discovered highly pathogenic virus that was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. The role of the immune system and inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of severe manifestations of Covid-19 is well established. Different treatments active on the immune system continue to be used for the management of COVID-19, and nutritional supplements are also promising for their antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities and prevention of viral spread. Maintaining a healthy diet is very substantial , especially in a period like Covid-19 when the immune system needs to be strong. Having a balanced and healthy diet can help strengthen the human body's immune system, which is substantial in fighting viruses. The role of vitamin D, vitamin C and zinc is of interest, with limited data on the use of supplements in COVID-19 patients. Nutritional supplements are shown as one of the fastest growing health categories today. For good measure, many clinical studies emphasize the importance of micronutrients in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. While the lack of micronutrients accelerates the negative picture, it is known that their intake in certain doses has a place in prophylaxis and treatment. The purpose of this review is to discuss the main properties of nutritional supplements and their potential applicability in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
