After reviewing the immune potential of nutraceuticals based on laboratory studies and human studies, it was concluded that bioactive compounds such as resveratrol, quercetin, curcumin, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), and palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) with proven antiviral properties enhance the immune system. immune system thus plays an important role in treating various infections caused by viruses in addition to strengthening the immune system.Keywords: nutraceutical, immune system, viral infection
