Water is the major constituent of the human body. Water is essential for life and maintaining optimal levels of hydration is important for humans to function well. Water makes up a large proportion of our body weight, distributed between the intracellular (inside cells) and extracellular (water in the blood and in between cells) compartments. Water is the major component of body fluids, such as blood, synovial fluid (fluid in the joints), saliva and urine, which perform vital functions in the body. Human body cannot produce enough water by metabolism or obtain enough water by food ingestion to fulfil its needs. As a consequence, we need to pay attention to what we drink throughout the day to ensure that we are meeting our daily water needs, as not doing so may have negative health effects.

Diet in childhood influences not only the immediate health of children but also may have an impact in a positive or negative manner on the future health status. Dietary fiber has many physiological effects including reducing postprandial glucose concentrations, improving fecal bulk, promoting laxation, interfering with fat and cholesterol absorption, and altering bacteria populations in the gut microbiome. The first years of life may be critical for the establishment of a healthy colonic microflora, as well as good eating habits.

Healthy aging has become one of the important focus in many countries. The World Health Organization and the United Nation have initiated The Healthy Aging Decade (2021 – 2030) which focus on collaborative efforts to reach healthy aging condition – a condition in which the senior population remains productive, has good quality of life and not become economic burden for the country. To reach this condition, one should put efforts as early as possible. In Indonesia, it is predicted that in 2040 there will be an increment in aging population. Pre-senior population (aged 45 – 60 years) will reach 17.5% and senior population (aged >60 years) will reach 10.1%. These numbers will make Indonesia one of the countries with the highest senior population in the world.

Patients with COVID-19 who are in the ICU considered to be extremely high malnutrition, which is caused by food intake matter and the disease itself. In critically ill, the definition of malnutrition is not only based on weight loss but also muscle wasting, sarcopenia and metabolic dysregulation. Good nutrition management prevents malnutrition getting worse. Nutritional theraphy is an essential element of the patients management. Nutritional screening and assessment, as well as nutritional management, should be integrated into general therapeutic strategy. Nutrition theraphy to ICU patients with COVID-19 has been published by some institutions/organizations.

About 80% of COVID-19 cases are asymptomatic and mild, and most of the cases resolved within 2-4 weeks. While severe pneumonia and critical multi-organ failure occurs in 15% and 5% respectively, and can last for 3-6 weeks. The post-COVID symptoms, initially referred to as ‘long COVID’ or ‘long-haul COVID’, are now collectively referred to as ‘post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection” (PASC).
