Abstract
Novel coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has been declared as a world pandemic which is responsible for high mortality rate. Finding a clinical cure for the same is difficult due to its variable characteristics. Thus, prevention is the most adaptive way to improve the current pandemic situation. Various studies suggest that patients with compromised immune health are the most susceptible host for this virus. This can be overcome by consumption of functional foods rich in nutritional components that boosts the human immune health. Recommended diet to improve the functioning of immune system includes vegetables, fruits, legumes, etc. They contain high quantities of protein, vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals that enhance the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities. Nutraceutical rich fruits like apples, papayas, citrus, berries and pineapples are under consideration to boost the immunity and keep the infections at bay. Apart from dietary supplementation, a good sleep combined with exercise routine can enhance the functioning of immune system and decrease the viral impact to a greater extent.
