Those with coronary fever should read!

According to Fars News Agency, one of the symptoms of coronary heart disease is fever. Fever indicates the presence of a type of infection in the body. It is the tissue proteins that result in the excretion of nitrogen from the body. Therefore, in nutritional care of infectious diseases, priority is given to providing energy, proteins, vitamins and minerals.

As the body temperature rises one degree Celsius, the body’s metabolism increases by 13 percent. Therefore, consumption of water, fluids and food in small volumes and more often is recommended.

In the acute phase of the disease and during fever, sodium and potassium may be excreted in large amounts in the form of sweat from the body, and consumption of salt-containing soup is necessary to compensate for sodium. Diet containing fruits (bananas, plums, apricots, cantaloupe, kiwi, oranges), vegetables (spinach, parsley, beans, wheat bran, carrots, squash, tomatoes and potatoes), milk, yogurt and buttermilk to provide potassium Recommended.

In a sick person, the need for protein increases, so the daily supply of protein, especially from animal sources such as: meats (red, chicken, fish, poultry), pasteurized dairy products (cheese, milk, yogurt, curd and buttermilk) and Eggs are recommended.

Fluids: Drinking healthy drinking water and other fluids such as milk and buttermilk is recommended as the best drink to provide some of the energy, protein, some vitamins and minerals needed. Drinking plenty of fluids helps to eliminate toxins and maintain proper immunity.

Vitamin A: Deficiency of this vitamin leads to a weakened immune system. Vitamin A helps absorb, digest and store iron in the body, and its deficiency leads to anemia due to vitamin A deficiency, which must be supplied through food sources. Its food sources are both animal and plant food sources, and animal food sources have a better absorption capacity than plant sources. Animal sources of the active form of vitamin A are found mainly in liver, offal, egg yolks, milk and high-fat dairy products and butter. Plant sources are in the form of carotenoids, especially beta-carotene. Lettuce, carrots, squash, apricots, cantaloupe, bananas, grapes, melons, persimmons and citrus fruits.

Vitamin E: In addition to having antioxidant activity, it also helps the immune system function. This vitamin is found in the oils of some plants. Wheat germ oil, hazelnut oil, canola oil, safflower oil, almond oil, grape seed oil and sunflower oil are the main sources of this vitamin. Nuts (hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts), spinach, kale, soy and potatoes also contain some of this vitamin. Remember not to take vitamin E supplements.

Vitamin D: Getting proper nutrition through your diet does not have to be complicated.

Vitamin C: In addition to being an antioxidant, taking this vitamin helps the body absorb iron better. Prolonged storage in the refrigerator, cooking, heat, light and tobacco cause the loss of this vitamin. Sources of this vitamin include peppers, green leafy vegetables such as spinach and vegetables, strawberries, grapefruit, tomatoes, mangoes, lemons, cabbage, potatoes, watermelons, citrus fruits, kiwis and other fruits and vegetables. But there is no evidence that supplements are used to treat coronavirus.

B vitamins: In fever, the body’s need for energy increases, and for metabolism, the need for B vitamins increases, which should come from food sources, including adequate consumption of vegetables, especially green leaves and fruits. Provide milk and dairy products, meat, heart and liver, egg yolks, whole grains, legumes and nuts.

Vitamin B12: Deficiency of this vitamin causes the rapid progression of viral infections. It is recommended to get this vitamin through food sources such as animal proteins such as red meat, fish and poultry, eggs and dairy products.

Iron: Iron deficiency causes damage and weakens the immune system. Iron is found in plant and animal sources. Animal sources: Red meat, poultry, and fish also contain iron, and plant sources such as vegetables, legumes, fresh and dried fruits, and whole grains also contain iron. Although eggs are the animal source of iron, so is iron. If iron supplements are consumed with foods containing vitamin C, iron absorption will increase.

Zinc (Zn): Symptoms of zinc deficiency are immune disorders, and foods rich in zinc include red meat, poultry, fish, whole grains, legumes, and eggs.

Garlic, ginger and other recommended foods, although due to their special compounds, can be useful against bacterial and viral infections. But there is no evidence that it is used to treat coronavirus.
