Abstract: The novel coronavirus has spread rapidly to multiple countries and has been declared a pandemic by the WHO. COVID-19 is observed to probably affect people with low immunity. Plant-based foods increase the intestinal beneficial bacteria. This improves overall gut microbiome health which makes up to 85% of the body's immune system thereby boosting immunity. Proper hydration helps our cells to oxygenate that helps them protect the body from any infectious agents. Regular exercise increases the levels of WBCs and antibodies. It also prevents formation of blood clots, which have been a symptom for some COVID-19 patients. Stress releases hormones like cortisol that suppresses the action of white blood cells and increases inflammation.

Keywords : Good sleep helps in releasing cytokines that fight off any infection
