Digestive and intestinal problems: unknown consequences of COVID-19
Obviously, gut health is paramount to maintaining a strong immune system. However, the COVID-19 virus does not only affect the respiratory system: it can also affect several organs, including the digestive system, so it is important to pay attention to gut health as a prevention and treatment both during and after the virus. COVID-19 can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain in the early stages of the disease. Therefore, diagnosis of gastrointestinal symptoms as well as microbiota composition is key to identifying biomarkers and offering the best treatment. Our medical center has created a special post-COVID-19 program designed to effectively treat the effects of the virus or persistent symptoms, including symptoms of digestive disorders. Experts should determine the best therapy to control the digestive system. Our experts also recommend special nutrition for detoxification of the digestive system - barley, vegetables, sour fruits, apples, cabbage, nuts, seaweed, seeds, sour seasonings. The most recommended ways to prepare these foods are steaming, blanching, and warm salads!
