Abstract: COVID pandemic adversities had diverted our inclination towards the remedial compounds which inhibit the potency of inflammatory markers during COVID-19 infection and reduce the severity of disease. Precisely, the Indian diet had played major role to combat the disease during COVID pandemic. The uptake of immune booster's phyto-compounds in form of daily diet had reduced the rate of severity during COVID infection, thus lower the burden of emergencies in medical crises. This review takes insight to those health benefitting dietary compounds that are used at a large scale, in almost every household due to their better affordability and easy access.
