Clinical Impact Potential of Supplemental Nutrients as Adjuncts of Therapy in High-Risk COVID-19 for Obese Patients

Abstract: The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) disease (COVID-19) in China at the end of 2019 caused a major global pandemic and continues to be an unresolved global health crisis. The supportive care interventions for reducing the severity of symptoms along with participation in clinical trials of investigational treatments are the mainstay of COVID-19 management because there is no effective standard therapy for COVID-19. The comorbidity of COVID-19 rises in obese patients. Mic… Show more

“…Healthy nutrition is very important and anyway mistaken or unbalanced diet can be risk factor affecting development of virus pathogenesis. Several research groups have shown that malnutrition or obesity exacerbate COVID-19 disease [35][36][37][38][39]. Therefore, to increase immunity in case of SARS-CoV-2 infection, an optimal diet was recommended with the inclusion of all the necessary nutritional components, trace elements and vitamins [35,[39][40][41][42].…”

“…More than a few scientific groups have investigated the effects of diet on COVID-19 disease progression and mortality in distinct nations [39,40,42,43,45,46,48]. Kontis and coauthors [27] investigated data from the first wave of pandemic in 21 industrial countries and shown that magnitude of mortality was heterogeneous in this group of patients.…”

“…The potential for food products, as functional foods or nutraceutical extracts from foods, to alleviate or modify COVID-19 transmission, morbidity or mortality is an especially attractive hypothesis when vaccines are not available. In reviewing the literature, the topic is replete with articles hypothesizing a beneficial effect of a healthy diet in reducing the incidence of COVID-19 infection and depressing its clinical symptoms [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. These articles review past association of a variety of nutritional factors that may influence infections in general and hypothesize that these same associations may modify COVID-19 viral morbidity and mortality.…”
