Abstract

Yeni koronavius hastalığı “COVID-19” dünyada birçok insanın hayatını tehdit eden ciddi bir halk sağlığı sorunu olmuştur. Bu yeni virüsten korunmada veya hastalık şiddetini hafifletmede, SARS-CoV-2 için halen spesifik bir tedavinin olmadığı da dikkate alındığında, bağışıklık sistemin aktif ve güçlü tutulması önemlidir. Beslenme ve bağışıklık arasında oldukça karmaşık ve güçlü ilişki bulunmaktadır. Epidemiyolojik ve deneysel çalışmalar beslenme, bağışıklık sistemi ve enfeksiyon üçgeninde diyet müdahalelerinin önemine işaret etmektedir. Bu süreçte makro ve mikro besin öğesi gereksinimlerini karşılayacak şekilde yeterli alımını sağlayan bir beslenme planına uyulması, diğer zorunlu tedbirler ile birlikte hastalıktan korunmada etkili olacaktır. Ayrıca hastalığın seyrine uygun olarak yapılan beslenme müdahaleleri tedavinin bir parçası olarak, iyileşme ve sağ kalım oranının artmasında potansiyel etki sağlayacaktır. Bu makalede COVİD-19’da beslenmenin bağışıklık sistemin desteklenmesi üzerindeki etkileri ayrıntılı olarak besin ögesi bazında irdelenmiştir.

Keywords
