Abstract

Nutraceutical industry has emerged as a research-oriented sector and its demand during the Covid 19 pandemic has increased tremendously. There is a rapid change in the consumer health consciousness and their lifestyle post covid which have led to a swift growth in a Natural nutraceutical Market. Nutraceuticals are now looked upon as important supplements that are on the priority list of monthly expenses, which, like food, cannot be skipped and has wide range of nutritional as well as therapeutic benefits.

Antiviral drugs such as remdesivir, ritonavir, and lopinavir are also being used; however, they are known to cause severe side effects on different organs [56].

After first phase of Covid-19, the second wave affects a lot to the Indians with mysterious fungal infection known as Mucor mycosis.

The purpose of this study was to understand post covid 19 effects during the treatment and post treatment on specific organs such as brain, lungs, heart, bones, liver, kidneys, skin etc. and effectiveness of natural nutraceutical ingredients to nourish that specific organ and boost overall immunity including side effects of medications provided during the treatment and long-term side effects.

This is a review paper of COVID-19’s extensive effects on virtually all the organs and how do natural nutraceutical ingredients will help in recovering fast.
