Abstract
The target is to evaluate ascorbic acid effect on prevention or treatment of the most recent viral infection, SARS-CoV-2. Covid-19 is a Systemic disease that can cause a sharp increase in cytokines, resulting in pulmonary capillary endothelial cell activation. Increasing neutrophil infiltration and oxidative stress. Coronavirus activates macrophages to release molecules such as NO. Vitamin C enhance chemotaxism, migration and decreases ROS release. It also reduces the secretion of cytokines, especially 6-IL and TNF-α. Vitamin C can help increase the rate of recovery in hospitalization by 70% and quantitative analysis indicated that it may reduce patients' symptoms by 30%. High dose Ascorbic acid infusion causes positive interference in sodium, glucose and creatinine also negative interference in lipase, Triglycerides, direct bilirubin and LDL / HDL cholesterol. Co-treatment of vitamin C with Melatonin, Vitamin D and Zinc can have a synergic effect on treatment. Although; in a study high doses of zinc gluconate and ascorbic acid, had no significant effect on reducing the course of symptoms.
