Abstract

COVID-19, a respiratory illness, has affected more than 50 million people by November 2020 and caused thousands of deaths worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic threatens safe, fearless living. Preventive measures, like imprisonment, led to dietary and lifestyle changes. Even though a number of vaccines have been developed, and immunization is being provided, the world is still dealing with the disease's social, medical, educational, economic, and political effects. The changes in eating, sleeping, physical activity, smoking, drinking, moods, emotions, social interactions, behaviors, attitudes, and domestic violence affected mental health. Restrictions or confinements have caused depression, anxiety, and stress. Quarantine stopped the virus spread but changed lives. Diet and lifestyle have been changed after COVID-19 shutdown. This study examines maximum factors involved in lifestyle changes post COVID-19 infection.
