COVID-19 HASTALIĞINI ÖNLEMEDE KULLANILAN TAKVİYE EDİCİ GIDALAR VE SAĞLIK ÜZERİNE ETKİLERİ

Abstract

Yeni Koronavirüs Hastalığı (COVID-19), solunum yoluyla insandan insana bulaşan ciddi bir enfeksiyon hastalığıdır. Tüm dünyada pandemi halini alan bu hastalık önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu haline gelmiştir. Beslenmenin yeterli ve dengeli olması, virüslerin yayılmasını azaltmada koruyucu yöntem olarak bilinmektedir. Bireylerde bu bilincin oluşmasıyla, bağışıklık sistemini güçlendirmek için pandemi döneminde yeterli ve dengeli beslenmenin yanı sıra takviye edici gıdaların (TEG) kullanımının önemli ölçüde arttığı görülmektedir. TEG, bağışıklık güçlendirici, antiviral, antioksidan, antiinflamatuar etkilere sahiptir. Bazı bileşenlerin TEG şeklinde yeterli ve etkili dozda kullanımı, bağışıklık sistemini güçlendirmede, virüs yayılmasını önleyerek hastalığın ilerlemesini engellemede ve inflamasyonu bastırmada fayda sağlamaktadır. COVID-19’un yönetiminde potansiyel rolü olduğu düşünülen bileşenlerin sağlık üzerine koruyucu ve terapötik etkilerini anlamada in vitro ve klinik çalışmalar sürdürülmektedir. Bu derlemede COVID-19’u önleme veya tedavi sırasında iyileşmede etkisi olan D vitamini, C vitamini, çinko, omega-3 yağ asitleri, probiyotikler, diğer bazı immünomodülatör bileşikler ile tüketicilerin pandemi döneminde TEG kullanımları irdelenmiştir.

DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS USED TO PREVENT COVID-19 DISEASE AND THEIR EFFECTS ON HEALTH

Abstract

Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is a serious infectious disease transmitted from person to person through the respiratory route. This disease, which has become a pandemic all over the world, has become an important public health problem. Adequate and balanced nutrition is known as a preventive method in reducing the spread of the virus. In order to increase the immune system with the formation of this awareness in individuals, in addition to adequate and balanced nutrition during the pandemic period, it is seen that the use of dietary supplements (DS) has increased significantly. DS has immune boosting, antiviral, antioxidant, antiinflammatory effects. The use of some components in the form of DS in sufficient and effective doses provides benefits in strengthening the immune system, preventing the progression of the disease by preventing the spread of viruses and suppressing inflammation. In vitro and clinical studies are ongoing to understand the protective and therapeutic effects of components thought to have a potential role in the management of COVID-19. In this review, vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics and some other immunomodulatory compounds, which have an effect on preventing or healing COVID-19 during treatment and consumers use of DS during the pandemic period were examined.
