So, this study aimed to identify associations between the history of drinking some drinks and symptoms of individuals having recovered from COVID-19.
This study involved participants (n = 346) individuals who had recovered from COVID-19; "212 women and 134 men" aged 20 to 65 years. Their data and answers were collected in an electronic questionnaire to investigate the relationship between their history of some drinks and COVID-19 symptoms.
Overall, among recovered individuals, most of them have moderate symptoms of (fever, cough, nasal congestion & runny nose, sore throat, diarrhea, and shortness of breath), but have severe symptoms of (body pain and loss of smell or taste). There was a significant correlation between fever, diarrhea, and shortness of breath occurrences and milk consumed, while there was a significant correlation between the occurrence of nasal congestion & runny nose, and sore throat symptoms and tea consumption.
