My mother tested COVID+ on 28/08/20. She has not repeated the test. Her latest blood report shows CRP higher than 0.20 and serum ferritin 130 (screenshot attached). She still feels weak and has gastric issues. Could you please suggest some diet tips or a tonic to improve her strength?

Her CRP and ferritin look fine, weakness may just be post viral fatigue. Give high-protein soft meals (dal, eggs, paneer, curd, rice). Small, frequent meals with vitamin supplements help. Tonic like B complex with iron can support recovery. Rule out anemia or thyroid issues if fatigue continues.

What are characteristics only red blood cells posses?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Good evening sir or madam, please see my test report and suggest remedies and what you think is most relevant for me. My height is 172 cm and my weight is 90 kg. I do not use alcohol, cigarettes, junk food, cold drinks, or oily food. I do approximately 20 minutes of yoga and a daily walk after meals. I eat only 2 to 3 rotis, use dry fruits, hand made juice, and some eggs and non vegetarian food. I am a UPSC aspirant, so I have to study 10 to 12 hours daily. I consume proper water and sleep. Please suggest?
