IMPACT OF DIET ON COVID

Several research papers on how diet affects corona virus.

Conclusion:

  • Fermented Foods
  • Intermittent Fasting
  • Short Supply Chain (eat local b/c less processed)
  • Plant-based Diet
  • High Fiber Diet
  • Sunshine (vitamin D)
  • Fresh Air

Note that red meat, glutton & alcohol are all inflammatory. Inflamation contributes to metabolic syndrome & weight gain, thus affecting Covid outcomes. Also note that intermittent fasting favorably affects gut biome.
