Review Article: Microbiota and Nutritional Interventions in Covid-۱۹

Background and Aim : With the onset of Covid-۱۹ epidemic in the world, scientists are looking for a specific treatment and prevention for this disease. One of the ways to deal with Covid-۱۹ is to support and strengthen the immune system and respond to it. This study aimed to review microbiota-mediated nutritional interventions in Covid ۱۹.Methods : This is a review study that by searching the electronic sources of PubMed, Science Direct, and Embase, using the keywords Probiotic, Covid ۱۹, Microbiota from ۲۰۱۵ to ۲۰۲۱, ۵۵ related articles were found and then analyzed.Results : The results indicate that lifestyle and nutrition affect the modulating effects of the immune system induced by microbiota against viral infections including Covid ۱۹. Factors such as air pollution, smoking, and toxic inhalable chemicals can reduce the abundance of microbiota. Conclusion : Airway microbiota and Covid ۱۹ are related to each other and the rate of host immune responses determine the pathogen microbiota. Foods such as colored vegetables, probiotics, and plant elements also support the gut microbiota. This study demonstrates the association between the airways and intestinal microbiota and the host's diet and lifestyle in preventing Covid ۱۹.
