Opting for a diet that enhances the immune system
While most people equate the word “diet” with weight loss, there are actually more reasons to alter your eating habits apart from slipping into a smaller pair of pants. The pandemic sparked a sudden interest in using nutrition to boost immune systems. The World Health Organization (WHO) also developed modified nutritional guidelines in response to the global pandemic, with the goal of making sure an impactful immune system and reducing chronic diseases.
They prescribe foods that have nutrients like vitamins A, C, and D. Spinach, mango, and other heart-healthy foods including natural versions of these minerals. Protein consumption is a key aspect in promoting immunological health.
Ketogenic
This diet is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate eating plan. The idea is to keep the body in a state of ketosis, which says that by simply eating carbohydrates, the body’s fat-burning mechanism will depend majorly on fat for energy instead of sugar.
If you want to reduce weight quickly, a ketogenic diet might be able to help you to achieve your goals. It has been seen to be more successful compared to low-fat diets for short-term weight loss.

Intermittent fasting
Between consuming food and fasting, intermittent fasting follows a cyclical schedule in the 16:8 ratio, this is a time-restricted diet. You must eat food every 8 hours and fast for 16 hours. During the period of fasting, you can have green or black tea, lemonade, but no sugar of any form should be consumed. Fasting on a daily basis has several advantages. It reduces the incidence of type 2 diabetes by decreasing insulin, stimulating cellular repair, lowering oxidative stress and inflammation, and boosting heart health. The impact of intermittent fasting remains for a longer time, which is beneficial.
