Two Omicron Symptoms That Appear When You Eat

RIAU24.COM – Omicron has become a variant COVID-19 which spreads very fast. Although the recovery percentage is better than the other variants, Omicron is quite difficult to detect because of its various symptoms.

According to researchers in the UK’s ZOE COVID Study, many COVID-19 patients experience gastrointestinal symptoms, including diarrhea, abdominal pain and nausea.

Experts also say that there are two symptoms of the Omicron variant that can appear while eating, namely loss of appetite and skipping meals.

They also said that loss of appetite was also an early symptom of Covid-19 last year.

The organization says skipping meals for a while is nothing to worry about.

“Skipping meals for a short period of time because you feel unwell is not something to be overly concerned about in people under 65. However, persistent loss of appetite in older people can be a sign that something is wrong and should be consulted by a GP or their health professionals,” the researcher was quoted as saying by the Times of India.

In line with the ZOE researchers, the UK’s national health agency (NHS) also said many patients infected with COVID-19 lost their appetite, which led to reduced intake of the food the body needs. This can affect the stage of the patient’s recovery.

“Many people experience a loss of appetite and reduced food intake when unwell due to COVID-19. If that happens, the recovery period can take a lot of time,” explains the NHS.

COVID-19 patients are advised to always monitor their weight and look for signs of weight loss, if they experience these two symptoms.

Loss of appetite due to infection with the Omicron variant can lead to weight loss.

During the recovery period, make sure to eat foods high in nutrition and always drink water.
