Ginger is one of the means that can counteract SARS-CoV-2 and prevent inflammation. Ginger modulates oxidative stress and prostaglandins as harmful factors in COVID-19. Ginger is also able to modulate incorrect effector T-cell responses in COVID-19. The effect of ginger-derived ingredients applied during COVID-19 infection using appropriate animal models should be evaluated in future studies.

An observational study of nearly 500,000 people in the UK shows that limited meat consumption can lower the risk of developing several types of cancer.

In other words, reduced dietary diversity in the way of eating is what leads to changes in the microbiome, not the other way around. In addition to a more in-depth study of this hypothesis, it is also important to focus efforts on a better understanding of which children with autism can be effectively influenced by intervention to enrich the intestinal microbiome.
