If you have symptoms of the coronavirus, or you are simply scratching your throat due to an allergy or the common flu, the advice of experts is to take in as much fluid as possible. The liquid will prevent dehydration of the organism, which can have serious consequences for health.

Why lemonade?
Fresh lemonade is full of vitamin C, and this vitamin successfully fights all types of viruses, including coronavirus. It is recommended to drink lemonade all day, but never cold. You can sweeten it with homemade honey, and to enhance the taste, feel free to add a little cinnamon.
Intake of the allowed amount of vitamin C will ensure the proper functioning of all cells, and in the period of the virus it is more than necessary.

Why zinc?
Zinc deficiency can cause physiological changes and problems. Some studies have shown that eating zinc in the diet can reduce mortality among children who have an acute infection of the lower respiratory system.
Foods rich in zinc help maintain brain structure and the general health of the nervous system. This mineral is essential for the creation of insulin reserves and stimulates its function. The complex of zinc and insulin is located in the cells of the pancreas, and when the body does not have enough of that element, there is a possibility of developing diabetes. It has been noticed that diabetics have twice the amount of zinc than normal.
Unlike some substances, the body cannot store zinc, which means that it is necessary to take zinc daily through food. The human body contains about 2-3 grams of zinc. The recommended daily dose for women is 8 mg daily. In pregnant women, this number increases to 11 mg, and in breastfeeding women to 12 mg. Zinc intake during pregnancy will have a positive effect on the health of the baby's brain.

ne kaze se dzabe jedna jabuka na dan drzi doktora daleko od vas, to se definitivno ukorenilo u narodu ali je retko istinit mit.
