The dietary supplements of various embodiments comprise a water-soluble vitamin component, an oil-soluble vitamin component, magnesium or derivatives thereof, a primary polyphenolic compound, a secondary polyphenolic compound, and an omega-3-phospholipid complex. The methods include maintaining health, maintaining brain health and reducing the risk or rate of neurodegeneration or cognitive decline. Methods, including algorithms, for systematically determining a dietary supplement are also described.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating COVID-19 diseases, comprising an organic solvent extract of Justicia procumbens as an effective ingredient, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating COVID-19 diseases, comprising justicidin-A as an effective ingredient, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating COVID-19 diseases, comprising justicidin-B as an effective ingredient, or a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating COVID-19 diseases, comprising 6′ hydroxyl justicidin-B as an effective ingredient, and a food composition thereof for preventing or ameliorating COVID-19 diseases. According to the present invention, an anhydrous ethanol extract of Justicia procumbens, justicidin-A, justicidin-B, and 6′ hydroxyl justicidin-B effectively inhibit SARS-CoV-2 virus, and thus may effectively prevent, treat, or ameliorate diseases caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus.
