The outbreak of COVID-19 started in Wuhan, china in December 2019. Since then this outbreak causes significant loss of life and sever economic crisis around the world. People who are older than 60 years of age and having clinical conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and low immune system suffered a lot due to this pandemic. Out of these whole scenarios we understand common criteria that those who have stronger immune system they would be able to fight this disease and recover. Enormous literature states that maintaining healthier life style would significantly improve immune system performance and this will prevent infection of uncertain virus outbreaks. Further dietary agents such as garlic, ginger, turmeric, lemon, cinnamon, black seed, and pepper etc has enormous potential to keep immune system stronger. Changing the modern life style such as eating junk foods, improper sleep, lack of exercise etc. would diminish the activity of immune system and these habits makes system more vulnerable to virus infections. Here we propose that adopting a life style with natural ingredients, regular exercise, remain hydrated would significantly enhance the immune system function.
