The worldwide transmission of acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as a deadly or devastating disease is known to affect thousands of people every day, many of them dying all over the planet. The main reason for the massive effect of COVID-19 on society is its unpredictable spread, which does not allow for proper planning or management of this disease. Antibiotics, antivirals, and other prescription drugs, necessary and used in therapy, obviously have side effects (minor or significant) on the affected person, there are still not clear enough studies to elucidate their combined effect in this specific treatment, and existing protocols are sometimes unclear and uncertain. In contrast, it has been found that nutraceuticals, supplements, and various herbs can be effective in reducing the chances of SARS-CoV-2 infection, but also in alleviating COVID-19 symptoms. However, not enough specific details are yet available, and precise scientific studies to validate the approved benefits of natural food additives, probiotics, herbs, and nutraceuticals will need to be standardized according to current regulations. These alternative treatments may not have a direct effect on the virus or reduce the risk of infection with it, but these products certainly stimulate the human immune system so that the body is better prepared to fight the disease. This paper aims at a specialized literary foray precisely in the field of these "cures" that can provide real revelations in the therapy of coronavirus infection.
严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）作为一种致命或具有毁灭性的疾病在全球范围内传播，每天都有数千人受到影响，其中许多人在世界各地死亡。新型冠状病毒肺炎（COVID-19）对社会产生巨大影响的主要原因是其不可预测的传播，这使得无法对该疾病进行适当的规划或管理。抗生素、抗病毒药物和其他用于治疗的处方药，显然会对患者产生副作用（轻微或严重），目前仍没有足够明确的研究来阐明它们在这种特定治疗中的联合作用，而且现有方案有时也不明确和不确定。相比之下，人们发现营养保健品、补充剂和各种草药不仅可以有效降低感染SARS-CoV-2的几率，还可以缓解COVID-19的症状。然而，目前还没有足够具体的细节，根据现行法规，需要对验证天然食品添加剂、益生菌、草药和营养保健品的既定益处的精确科学研究进行规范。这些替代疗法可能不会对病毒产生直接影响或降低感染风险，但这些产品肯定会刺激人体免疫系统，使身体更好地准备抗击疾病。本文旨在专门深入研究这些“疗法”领域，以便在冠状病毒感染治疗方面提供真正有启发性的内容。
