Kimchi could help ease coronavirus symptoms—study


According to a recent report, kimchi, a traditional fermented cabbage dish from South Korea, can help reduce coronavirus symptoms.


The World Institute of Kimchi and Jean Bousquet, an honorary professor of pulmonary medicine at Montpellier University in France, collaborated on the report.


Because of the bioactive compounds found in kimchi, the study discovered that consuming it may result in a milder case of the coronavirus. The compounds, which are produced as a byproduct of fermentation, have anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.


Kimchi is made with Napa cabbage and a number of spices such as garlic, ginger, and chili, and it is sometimes aged for weeks or months before serving.


The ingredients, as well as probiotics like lactic acid bacteria, help to improve the human body's antioxidant protection mechanism and relieve coronavirus symptoms.


Correlations between low fatalities and national dietary variations were also investigated in the joint report. People in regions with very low COVID-19 fatality rates consume a lot of fermented vegetables like cabbage and spices, according to the report.


The study was published in the December issue of Clinical and Translational Allergy.


Many local institutes, including the Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology, and Jeonbuk National University, are researching kimchi's effects against COVID-19, according to the World Institute of Kimchi.

If you're one of the many people who don't make it a habit to read on a regular basis, you're missing out: reading has a slew of advantages, and only a few of them are listed below. 1.

Puzzles and games like chess have also been found to be beneficial in terms of cognitive enhancement. 2. Stress Reduction No matter how much tension you're under at...

  Filipinos deserve a leader who will defend the country’s sovereignty —Carpio Retired Supreme Court Justice Antonio Carpio slammed President Rodrigo Duterte on Thursday after the chief executive appeared to blame him and former Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario for China's occupation of some West Philippine Sea features. On Wednesday night, Duterte used his weekly address to the nation to question Carpio and del Rosario about why the country "lost territory" in the West Philippine Sea during their tenure, particularly after the 2012 standoff between Philippine and Chinese vessels in the Scarborough Shoal. Carpio stated in a statement that he was not a member of the Executive Department, which determines foreign policy, in 2012. Carpio, a Supreme Court magistrate at the time, had recommended that China be taken to arbitration over its massive claims in the South China Sea, including areas Manila refers to as the West Philippine Sea. “In January 2013, the Aquin...
