MOSCOW, 17 Apr. Therapist and nutritionist Tina Petrovskaya spoke about whether it is worth taking vitamins during the recovery period from coronavirus.According to Petrovskaya, taking an increased dose of vitamin C during illness and during the recovery period does not have a particular effect on the body and immunity. «Scientists came to this conclusion after conducting studies and meta-analyzes in the mid-90s. And there was even evidence of an increase in cancer in patients taking different groups of vitamins at an increased dosage. Therefore, it is important to comply with the norm in taking and identify the real need for the body to receive an increased dose of vitamin C,» the specialist shared. The therapist noted that the problem is that having an unhealthy lifestyle, a person subconsciously wants to help his body in the simplest and fastest way.
