In the later research, lab tests showed that cannabigerolic acid and cannabidiolic acid prevented infection of human epithelial cells by the coronavirus spike protein and prevented entry of SARS-CoV-2 into cells.
“These compounds can be taken orally and have a long history of safe use in humans,” van Breemen said. “They have the potential to prevent as well as treat infection by SARS-CoV-2. CBDA and CBGA are produced by the hemp plant as precursors to CBD and CBG, which are familiar to many consumers. However, they are different from the acids and are not contained in hemp products.”
Van Breemen explains that affinity selection mass spectrometery, which he abbreviates to AS-MS, involves incubating a drug target like the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein with a mixture of possible ligands – things that might bind to it – such as a botanical extract, in this case hemp extract.
The article later says that licorice might also show some promise but they havent done tests yet.
Dont tell me kids because theyll spend all day eating candy saying its for medical purposes.
What cant Hemp do? seriously
Gov. Abbott needs to get his act together and legalize cannabis - its still a Schedule 1 substance here which is friggin ridiculous. You can go to jail or get fined if your caught and cant convince the cops to look the other way.
