Thus arose the need to investigate the relationship between body composition and eating habits of post-infected patients, since, to date, evidence about this potential relationship was scarce. Objectives: To relate the nutritional status and adhering to the Mediterranean diet of individuals who were infected by SARS-coV-2 with the existence of symptoms and their persistence in acute infection and post-covid condition. Methodology: An observational and cross-sectional analytical epidemiological study, applied to a sample of people over 18 years of age, infected with SARS-coV-2 between 30/10/2020 and 03/02/2022. Twenty-nine participants were recruited. Nutritional status (body composition and food intake) was assessed, and a questionnaire was applied, with questions related to sociodemographic and health characteristics, physical activity, and Mediterranean diet adhering. Data collection took place between June 2021 and March 2022. Results: The 29 participants had an age of 27.0 years (22.0-42.5) and body mass index (BMI) of 22.0kg/m2 (20.5-24.1). The BMI classification seems to have a perfect association (Cramer V 1.000; p=0.034) with the presence of symptoms in the acute phase. On the other hand, increasing age is associated with a higher probability that symptoms will persist more than 12 weeks after initial infection (OR=1.109; CI95%: 1.001-1,228; p=0.047). A low intake of vitamins D, E, Iron and fiber was reported. Conclusions: Advancing age seems to be related to persistent symptomatology due to SARS-coV-2 infection and a higher BMI appears to be related to the presence of symptoms in acute infection, in line with existing research. Age is a non-modifiable factor, but BMI is, and therefore preventive nutrition should be increasingly emphasized | ||
