Asian journal of pharmaceutical researchSummary: The coronavirus disease 19(COVID-19) is a highly transmittable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-II), which emerged in Wuhan, China and spread around the world. It is considered a relative of Severe Acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), The cause of COVID-19 is a beta coronavirus named SARS-CoV-2 that affects the lower respiratory tract and manifests as pneumonia in humans. The Asymptomatic carriers have become the current focus of global epidemic prevention and control efforts. These carriers of the virus display no clinical symptoms but are known to be contagious. As "silent spreaders", asymptomatic carriers warrant attention as a part of disease prevention and control. The comparable viral load in a group of asymptomatic carriers of COVID-19 was found to be higher than that of the symptomatic carriers. There are numerous micronutrients which are essential for immunocompetence, particularly Vitamin A, C, D, E, B, iron, selenium, and zinc. Immunonutrition refers to the modulation of the immune system through the modification of dietary nutrients. Vitamins A to E highlighted potentially beneficial roles in the fight against COVID-19 via antioxidant effects, immunomodulation, enhancing natural barriers, and local paracrine signaling. The present review provides a brief information on supplementation of Immunonutrients in form of vitamins which ultimately can act as prophylactic regimen for Asymptomatic carriers of SARS CoV-II virus.
