Foods like ginger, garlic, and lemon can indeed help relieve symptoms of colds and covid, but they are not a panacea. This was told by a nutritionist and expert in the field of proper nutrition Anton Berdov.

According to him, Moslenta writes, with the onset of the pandemic, information began to appear more and more often that lemon, ginger and garlic help in treatment. Berdov explained that this is indeed the case – they are “helping”. For example, recent studies have shown that honey and ginger fight the symptoms of a cold even better than regular cough drops and nasal drops. However, he emphasized, the use of these products does not affect the speed of recovery. That is, they help relieve symptoms, but do not affect the treatment itself, their role is only supportive. Birdo categorically does not recommend relying on the “magic” action of garlic, lemon and ginger, especially if the disease is already running.

At the same time, the nutritionist advises daily consumption of ginger, lemon and garlic in small amounts as a means of preventing diseases: they contain many vitamins and minerals, as well as antioxidants that prevent the development of complications in the respiratory tract and improve overall immunity.
