Dr. Ara Suppiah emphasizes the need for dietary adjustments to enhance immunity against the rapidly mutating coronavirus. He advocates increasing omega-3 fatty acids intake, particularly DHA and EPA, found in fatty fish and avocados, while reducing processed foods. Additionally, he recommends using Malaysian certified sustainable palm oil for cooking due to its balanced fatty acid profile and antioxidant content. For those avoiding fish, chia oil is suggested for its rich ALA omega-3 content, promoting overall wellness and supporting immune function.
"This also means we don't have the typical immunity we'd have from other viruses," explains Ara Suppiah, MD (affectionately known as Dr. Ara).
"You can also do yourself a huge favor by decreasing the amount of processed foods you eat because they may contain oils that are too inflammatory."
"Malaysian certified sustainable palm oil is a naturally balanced fatty acid blend. It contains less inflammatory omega 6s than most commonly used seed oils."
"Chia oil is one of nature's richest sources of plant-based ALA omega-3 fatty acids. It's also loaded with antioxidants and phytosterols for overall wellness."
