Since the outbreak of COVID-19 disease, medical and scientific communities are facing a challenge to contain its spread, develop effective treatments, and reduce its sequelae. Together with the therapeutical treatments, the use of dietary bioactive compounds represents a promising and cost-effective strategy to modulate immunological responses. Amazonian oilseeds are great sources of bioactive compounds, thus representing not only a dietary source of nutrients but also of substances with great interest for human health. This narrative review compiled the available evidence regarding the biochemical properties of some Amazonian oilseeds, especially , berry, , , and fruits, on human health and its immune system. These effects were discussed from an etiological and pathophysiological perspective, emphasizing their potential role as a co-adjuvant strategy against COVID-19. Besides this, the cost associated with these strategies hinders their applicability in many nations, especially low-income countries and communities living in social insecurity.
自新冠疫情爆发以来,医学和科学界面临着控制其传播、开发有效治疗方法以及减少其后遗症的挑战。与治疗性治疗一起,使用膳食生物活性化合物是调节免疫反应的一种有前景且具有成本效益的策略。亚马逊油籽是生物活性化合物的重要来源,因此不仅是营养物质的膳食来源,也是对人类健康极具价值的物质来源。这篇叙述性综述收集了有关一些亚马逊油籽,特别是 浆果、 、 、 和 果实的生化特性对人类健康及其免疫系统影响的现有证据。从病因学和病理生理学角度对这些影响进行了讨论,强调了它们作为对抗新冠病毒辅助策略的潜在作用。除此之外,这些策略的成本阻碍了它们在许多国家的应用,特别是低收入国家以及生活在社会不安全环境中的社区。
