Nutrition as Prevention

Per the CDC approximately 90% of the patients hospitalized for COVID 19 from March 1-30 had one or more underlying chronic conditions – the most common were obesity, hypertension, chronic lung disease, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease.   

The CDC states that “these findings underscore the importance of preventative measure including social distancing, respiratory hygiene and wearing face masks coverings in public settings where social distancing measure are difficult to maintain) to protect older adults and persons with underlying medical conditions”. 

What about prevention in the form of nutrition – it’s time to take back control of your health and make nutrition and lifestyle changes that will keep you out of the most at risk group.  Many of the underlying conditions that are putting people at higher risk for negative COVID 19 outcomes can be reversed and prevented through diet and exercise – it’s time to take your health into your own hands.
