How to stay healthy during isolation due to coronavirus

Closed and with a sense of health, dura and despair? Even though you are locked up in four Jews because of the coronavirus, you can still do many things to protect your health and well-being.

In difficult times, such as those caused by the coronavirus, it is often the feeling that things are getting out of control. Every day is a complete shift, and the future, at least according to experts, is uncertain.
But there are things you can do to them, apart from social distancing and changing your hands with soap, to protect your health and well-being.

You eat well

Without a vaccine, nothing can completely eliminate the risk of coronavirus infection. And scientists say he still has 12 to 18 months.

But a healthy diet is important not only for your physical health, but also for your mental health. A healthy diet reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity, but also depression and anxiety.
You do not have to follow a special diet, just avoid processed foods because they often contain a lot of sugar.
The best food for our mental health is the healthiest food. The complex carbohydrates found in fruits, vegetables and grains provide important food for our brains because they gradually release energy, which also stabilizes the mood.

Keep an eye on your diet while you are in isolation.


A balanced diet should include a mixture of foods rich in vitamins A, B, C, D and E, as well as the minerals iron, zinc and selenium. The B vitamins found in green fruits such as broccoli and spinach, scrambled eggs, bananas, eggs, fish and beets are important for our brains and their "happy chemicals" such as serotonin and dopamine. B6, B12 and B9 deficiencies are common in cases of depression.

It is vital that we maintain intestinal health, because many studies show that it has a great influence on our mood and behavior. Prebiotics and probiotics found in fermented foods such as kefir, kimchi (a Korean specialty), sauerkraut and yogurt can reduce inflammation, and improve mood and cognitive function.

The World Health Organization's advice on dealing with coronavirus stress reminds "not to use cigarettes, alcohol and drugs to calm emotions." If you do not feel well, talk to a healthcare professional or psychologist.

Get some sleep!

The sleep is crucial for our body to renew its cells, to cleanse itself of toxins, to consolidate its memory and to process information. There is ample evidence that sleep deprivation has a negative impact on health - they have a negative effect on our mental health, concentration, and even emotional intelligence. In addition, the risk of developing chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity and heart disease may increase.

It is very important to have a regular sleep routine, as well as for meals, work and exercise. For increased light, a night's sleep is allowed between 6 and 9 o'clock.
If you have difficulty falling asleep, try to limit the news before going to bed. It is also helpful to reduce the exposure of screens in the evening, because the effect of blue light on our retina can impair the quality of the sleep.

Exercise enough

Exercise releases chemicals in the body that give us a positive feeling, and improves sleep, reduces stress and fear, improves memory and cognition.
It's not time for team sports, but you can exercise on your own, says Marcus Thorman, owner of a fitness studio in Germany. He recommends 30 minutes of moderate exercise every day.

Many fitness instructors - yoga and pilates, personal trainers, dance trainers - offer their classes online during the crisis, some of them for free. All you need is a rug or towel for the floor and a good internet connection.


Although outdoor exercise may be limited, you go out as much as you can, at least briefly, because it has been shown to improve your mental state. Even if you manage to take a walk once a day, it is healthy, because research shows that spending two hours in nature a week improves health. But don't do it if you have any flu symptoms or feelings.
