Abstract :
Coronavirus-disease 19 (COVID-19) has rapidly become a global public health issue, and there is a desperate need for
strategies of prevention, reduction, and treatment to halt the epidemic. The coronavirus affects the immune system,
and individuals with a compromised immune system, such as those with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, are more
susceptible to this virus. Lifestyle-related variables such as physical activity and nutritional supplements can decrease
inflammatory markers, increase anti-inflammatory and antioxidant status, and improve the immune system. Lifestylerelated variables play preventive roles against various infectious diseases including COVID-19. This review highlights
the effects of physical activity and nutrients supplements on the immune system and their possible benefits in
combating the harms caused by infection with the COVID-19 virus.
