Covid-19 continues to spread across Scotland and it is important to nourish the body while recovering from the virus. This is especially crucial, as recent figures show nearly a quarter of cases reported in the week ending July 10 were found to be reinfections.
While no diet can prevent coronavirus, it is important to eat well after contracting Covid-19, as protein, vitamins and minerals give your body energy needed to get better.
Even after you begin to test negatively, symptoms can linger for up to 12 weeks. High amounts of protein aids in muscle regeneration which degenerate when the body is ill.
Energy-rich foods can strengthen your immune system, which will be worn out from fighting off the virus, while they also boost strength the body needs to return to normality.
