What we eat and drink can affect our body’s ability to prevent, fight and recover from infections. While no foods or dietary supplements can prevent or cure COVID-19 infection, healthy diets are important for supporting immune systems. Good nutrition can also reduce the likelihood of developing other health problems, including obesity, heart disease, diabetes and some types of cancer. For babies, a healthy diet means exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months, with the introduction of nutritious and safe foods to complement breastmilk from age 6 months to 2 years and beyond. For young children, a healthy and balanced diet is essential for growth and development. For older people, it can help to ensure healthier and more active lives. Tips for maintaining a healthy diet 1. Eat a variety of food, including fruits and vegetables • Every day, eat a mix of whole-grains like wheat, maize and rice, legumes like lentils and beans, plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables , with some foods from animal sources (e.g. meat, fish, eggs and milk). • Choose wholegrain foods like unprocessed maize, millet, oats, wheat and brown rice when you can; they are rich in valuable fibre and can help you feel full for longer. • For snacks, choose raw vegetables, fresh fruit, and unsalted nuts. 2. Cut back on salt • Limit salt intake to 5 grams (equivalent to a teaspoon) a day. • When cooking and preparing foods, use salt sparingly and reduce use of salty sauces and condiments (like soy sauce, stock or fish sauce). • If using canned or dried food, choose varieties of vegetables, nuts and fruit, without added salt and sugars. • Remove the salt shaker from the table, and experiment with fresh or dried herbs and spices for added flavor instead. • Check the labels on food and choose products with lower sodium content. 3. Eat moderate amounts of fats and oils • Replace butter, ghee and lard with healthier fats like olive, soy, sunflower or corn oil when cooking. • Choose white meats like poultry and fish which are generally lower in fats than red meat; trim meat of visible fat and limit the consumption of processed meats. • Select low-fat or reduced-fat versions of milk and dairy products. • Avoid processed, baked and fried foods that contain industrially produced trans-fat. • Try steaming or boiling instead of frying food when cooking. 4. Limit sugar intake • Limit intake of sweets and sugary drinks such as fizzy drinks, fruit juices and juice drinks, liquid and powder concentrates, flavoured water, energy and sports drinks, ready-to-drink tea and coffee and flavoured milk drinks. • Choose fresh fruits instead of sweet snacks such as cookies, cakes and chocolate. When other dessert options are chosen, ensure that they are low in sugar and consume small portions. • Avoid giving sugary foods to children. Salt and sugars should not be added to complementary foods given to children under 2 years of age, and should be limited beyond that age. 5. Stay hydrated: Drink enough water Good hydration is crucial for optimal health. Whenever available and safe for consumption, tap water is the healthiest and cheapest drink. Drinking water instead of sugar-sweetened beverages is a simple way to limit your intake of sugar and excess calories. 6. Avoid hazardous and harmful alcohol use Alcohol is not a part of a healthy diet. Drinking alcohol does not protect against COVID-19 and can be dangerous. Frequent or excessive alcohol consumption increases your immediate risk of injury, as well as causing longer-term effects like liver damage, cancer, heart disease and mental illness. There is no safe level of alcohol consumption. 7. Breastfeed babies and young children Breast-milk is the ideal food for infants. It is safe, clean and contains antibodies which help protect against many common childhood illnesses. Babies should be breastfed exclusively during the first 6 months of life, as breast milk provides all the nutrients and fluids they need. • From 6 months of age, breast milk should be complemented with a variety of adequate, safe and nutrient-dense foods. Breastfeeding should continue under babies at 2 years of age or beyond. Women with COVID-19 can breastfeed if they wish to do so and should take infection prevention and control measures. Please see Q&A on breastfeeding and COVID-19 Tips for Food Safety during COVID-19 There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread through contact with food or food packaging. COVID-19 is generally thought to be spread from person to person. However, it’s always important to practice good hygiene when handling food to prevent any food-borne illnesses. Follow WHO’s Five keys to safer food:

Here is 202nd Coronavirus disease (COVID-2019) situation report from World Health Organisation as on 9th August 2020 Please click the following link of WHO: https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/situation-reports/20200809-covid-19-sitrep-202.pdf?sfvrsn=2c7459f6_2 WHO says about physical activity at home and stay healthy : The COVID-19 pandemic means that many of us are staying at home and sitting down more than we usually do. It’s hard for a lot of us to do the sort of exercise we normally do. It’s even harder for people who don’t usually do a lot of physical exercise. But at a time like this, it’s very important for people of all ages and abilities to be as active as possible. WHO’s Be Active campaign aims to help you do just that - and to have some fun at the same time. Remember - Just taking a short break from sitting, by doing 3-4 minutes of light intensity physical movement, such as walking or stretching, will help ease your muscles and improve blood circulation and muscle activity. Regular physical activity benefits both the body and mind. It can reduce high blood pressure, help manage weight and reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and various cancers - all conditions that can increase susceptibility to COVID-19. It also improves bone and muscle strength and increases balance, flexibility and fitness. For older people, activities that improve balance help to prevent falls and injuries. Regular physical activity can help give our days a routine and be a way to stay in contact with family and friends. It’s also good for our mental health - reducing the risk of depression, cognitive decline and delay the onset of dementia - and improve overall feelings How much physical activity is recommended for your age group? WHO has recommendations on the amount of physical activity people of all ages should do to benefit their health and well being. Infants under 1 year of age • All infants should be physically active several times a day. • For those not yet mobile, this includes at least 30 minutes in prone position (tummy time), as floor-based play, spread throughout the day while awake. Children under 5 years of age • All young children should spend at least 180 minutes a day in a variety of types of physical activities at any intensity • 3-4 year old children should spend at least 60 minutes of this time in moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity Children and adolescents aged 5-17 years • All children and adolescents should do at least 60 minutes a day of moderate to vigorous-intensity physical activity • This should include activities that strengthen muscle and bone, at least 3 days per week • Doing more than 60 minutes of physical activity daily will provide additional health benefits Adults aged over 18 years • All adults should do at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity throughout the week, or at least 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity throughout the week. • For additional health benefits, adults should increase their moderate-intensity physical activity to 300 minutes per week, or equivalent. • For developing and maintaining musculoskeletal health, muscle-strengthening activities involving major muscle groups should be done on 2 or more days a week • In addition, older adults with poor mobility should do physical activity to enhance balance and prevent falls on 3 or more days per week. #health #pandemic #epidemic #corona #coronavirus #covid-19 #travel #guide #who #world #disease #precaution #safety #parenting #socialdistancing #worldhealth Here is 179th Coronavirus disease (COVID-2019) situation report from World Health Organisation as on 17th July 2020 Please click the following link of WHO: https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/situation-reports/20200717-covid-19-sitrep-179.pdf?sfvrsn=2f1599fa_2 #health #pandemic #epidemic #corona #coronavirus #covid-19 #travel #guide #who #world #disease #precaution #safety #parenting #socialdistancing #worldhealth
