CBD and COVID

COVID under a microscope

Can cbd help with covid

Does CBD Oil help with COVID?, We know CBD is great for sleep, appetite, MS, menopause and pain but did you know, it’s also great in the wrestle with COVID.

CBD works with your Immune system

Twenty Scientists from Chicago, carried out a study ‘COVID and CBDs Fight against infection’ and concluded;

Natural non-synthetic CBD Oil (Cannabidiol) from the cannabis plant has the potential to prevent and inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection. (Cannabidiol Inhibits SARS)

it makes Perfect sense

It does make perfect sense that CBD would play an amazing role in fighting the disease, as the Endocannabinoid system is the master controller of all our major systems.

CBD works in harmony with our Immune system. It works on a system of signals and receptors. If our bodies are out of sorts the ECS sends out a regulating message to correct any misfires.

Our bodies naturally produced Cannabinoids, if for some reason we are not creating enough Cannabinoids, we can consume CBD from the plant as a natural supplement to aid our ECS system.

lets look at cbd against covid

Please note the tests were carried out ‘in Vitro this means in a petri dish only. None of this part of the study was carried out on humans.

In a Lab CBD Oil reduced The SARS infection by 50% very interesting, the potential is huge.

The report tells us:

  • CBD inhibited or suppressed Viral replication.
  • CBD could be acting to block viral entry to host cells or at later steps following infection.
  • CBD acts to prevent viral protein translation and associated cellular changes.

So it appears CBD could slow the virus from spreading in your body

Following this realisation

These twenty-one researchers joined another team of twelve from the University of Louisville and created a survey of 1212 US patients taking prescription CBD 100mgs, Cannabidiol inhibits SARS-CoV-2.

The results on CBD returned lower COVID-19 test rates than the opposite control groups with similar medical backgrounds who did not take CBD Oil.

This group furthered the study with mice and concluded that ‘Future studies to explore the optimal means of CBD delivery to patients along with clinical trials will be needed to further evaluate the promise of CBD as a therapeutic to block SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Our animal studies provide preclinical support for evaluation of CBD as an anti–SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic agent in clinical trials.’

For COVID and CBD Fight against infection ‘We advocate carefully designed placebo-controlled clinical trials with known concentrations and highly characterized formulations to define CBD’s role in preventing and treating early SARS-CoV-2 infection.’.

our conclusion

CBD can block SARS-CoV-2 infection at early and even later stages of infection in animals.

SARS-CoV-2 infections did reduce in humans who consumed CBD.

The scientists agree, that there is a lot of cause to further these studies, it’s looking positive that CBD can help us with our battle with COVID.

As the Science is looking positive for CBD oil. We are looking forward to hearing the next report.  So when we ask the question Does CBD Oil help against COVID? the answer is Yes.
