It is a vegetarian dish that is healthy and perfect for all occasions! Enjoy this meal during your lunch hours, as a side dish, or over a video call with friends and family.

An international study led by researchers at McGill University has discovered that those with poor dental hygiene tend to experience more severe COVID-19 symptoms. By looking at digital medical and dental records of over 500 patients with COVID-19, they discovered that patients who showed signs of gum disease, or periodontitis, were 3.5 times more likely to be admitted to the intensive care unit, 4.5 times more likely to require a ventilator, and 8.8 times more likely to die from COVID-19. Oral bacteria can be inhaled into the respiratory tract, which can then lead to worsening conditions such as pneumonia or sepsis. Their research shows that good oral health is vital to the prevention and management of COVID-19 complications.
