According to a study published in the *Journal of Internal Medicine*, up to 79% of people who lost their sense of taste during COVID-19 had it back within 30 days, but for many, lingering issues with appetite and flavor can persist for months. Learning how to start eating again after COVID is key to replenishing your body and regaining your strength.

During a COVID-19 infection, the body breaks down muscle protein to create new proteins for the immune system, leading to muscle weakness and wasting. Providing the body with what is the best protein for COVID patients is therefore a critical component for tissue repair and immune function during and after the illness.
