2 FOR 1 FOREVER!!! Reposted from @dkwars Posted @withregram β’ @da808feedofficial Cannabis compounds prevented the virus that causes COVID-19 from penetrating healthy human cells, according to a laboratory study published in the Journal of Nature Products. The two compounds commonly found in hemp β called cannabigerolic acid, or CBGA, and cannabidiolic acid, or CBDA β were identified during a chemical screening effort as having potential to combat coronavirus, researchers from Oregon State University said. In the study, they bound to spike proteins found on the virus and blocked a step the pathogen uses to infect people. The researchers tested the compoundsβ effect against alpha and beta variants of the virus in a laboratory. The study didnβt involve giving the supplements to people or comparing infection rates in those who use the compounds to those who donβt. Hemp is a source of fiber, food and animal feed, and extracts are commonly added to cosmetics, body lotions, dietary supplements and food. βThese compounds can be taken orally and have a long history of safe use in humans,β said Richard van Breemen, a researcher with Oregon Stateβs Global Hemp Innovation Center. βThey have the potential to prevent as well as treat infection by SARS-CoV-2,β he said in a statement.
