Sections provide traditional medicine approaches and their potential to prevent and treat COVID-19 infection, including traditional Chinese, Ayurvedic, Persian, and Kampo medicine, alongside an overview of nutritional regimens and their therapeutic potential. Other sections cover natural molecules such as flavonoids, saponins, coumarins, alkaloids, terpenes, polysaccharides, and several microbial natural products of relevant action against viruses. Final chapters cover nanotherapeutic approaches.
