Abstract

The entire world has experienced many pandemics and epidemics, but occasionally a new one called SARS-CoV-2, or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, has put the global health care system under strain. Long Covid, or "long-haul COVID-19," refers to Post COVID-19 problems in individuals who recover from a COVID-19 infection, resulting in various complications such as cardiac, pulmonary, systemic, neuropsychiatric, tinnitus, acute kidney damage, renal failure, and thrombotic issues. After recovering from a COVID-19 infection, everyone must maintain a healthy diet because the infection may eventually harm their critical health. Ayurveda, a traditional healthcare system, emphasizes the importance of food and lifestyle in maintaining health and preventing diseases. Aahar is regarded as the "superior medicine," or Mahabhaisajya. Improper dietary habits lead to a variety of lifestyle health problems that can be avoided with appropriate Aahar and eating practices. According to Ayurveda, an individual's Prakriti, or constitution, should be taken into consideration when defining an Aahar. The article aims to assess a lot Aahar methods and concepts that are scattered over various Samhitas that can help manage Post COVID-19 complications and promote a quick recovery without future disease complications.
