Scientists from King’s College London have found that certain nutritional supplements reduce women’s risk of contracting COVID-19. The study used data from 1.4 million users of a mobile app that tracked coronavirus symptoms. People entered there, including information about nutrition, RIA Novosti reports with a link to the portal MedRxiv.
It turned out that women who took a multivitamin, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, or probiotics had a lower risk of infection than those who did not take them. In men, this effect was not observed.
The experts stressed that their research was observational. Additional experiments are needed to confirm their conclusions.
