The aim of the present work was to review data on the antiviral activities of some fruit plant species and their macronutrient composition. This was done with the aim of promoting these plants for the management of viral diseases, particularly covid-19. Several fruit plant species are mentioned in the literature for their antiviral properties. These include: Cocos nucifera, Garcinia mangostana, Malus domestica, Mangifera indica, Musa acuminate, Musa balbisiana, Musa paradisiaca, Nephelium lappaceum, Passiflora edulis, Persea americana, Syzygium aromaticum, Syzygium guineense, Syzygium malaccense, Vitis vinifera. Some compounds of the above-mentioned fruit plants can interact with the therapeutic targets of various viruses including SARS-Cov-2 proteases. Others, on the other hand, are known to have immunostimulatory or both antiviral and immunostimulatory activities.
