Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Covid-19 Virus, Strengthening The Protective SystemAbstract
Corona virus epidemic disease (Covid-19) which with common symptoms of fever, shortness of breath and cough is a great threat to the public health of the world and a significant cause of death worldwide. During the years of 2019-2022, this disease has been spreading day by day until now, with the provision of the Covid-19 vaccine, its spread has been prevented as much as possible. Strengthening the body's protective system is one of the most important ways to fight this disease, and vitamins, especially vitamins C and D, are among the things that strengthen this system. Various studies have reported the positive role of vitamin D in preventing the disease of Covid-19 and reducing the serious effects caused by the disease. By strengthening the system and increasing the production of antioxidant and antimicrobial agents, vitamin D can play an effective role in preventing the spread of Covid-19. Also, vitamin C may be effective in preventing viral infections and in treating acute respiratory diseases including infections caused by viruses such as Covid-19 and strengthening the protective system. Therefore, it is recommended to consume as much as vitamin C, especially in the conditions of the Covid-19 epidemic. The current review study was conducted with the aim of investigating the role of vitamins D and C on the covid-19 virus, on the healing process of infectious diseases and the effect of this vitamin on strengthening the protective system. The findings show that consuming wetamines C and D during Covid-19 epidemic strengthen the protective system.
