https://www.cbsnews.com/news/coronavirus-cannabis-treatment-potential/ "CBD has very few side effects, so it's something that's being looked at as a much more mild treatment that still has a lot of anti-inflammatory powers," Earlenbaugh told CBSN. " "The authors of the study said that CBD increases the production of interferons, "a type of signaling protein that activates immune cells and prevents viruses from replicating," Earlenbaugh said. But given the very early stages of this research, Earlenbaugh warns that people should "definitely express caution" against using cannabis to fight COVID-19. She said some researchers have warned using the drug early on in the infection stages could cause negative side effects. "We're very pretty far away from human research that could really definitively answer those questions for us," Earlenbaugh says. "The other reason for caution is that cytokines are important in fighting off infections. So, we don't want to reduce them as a preventative measure or in early stages of the infection."" |

CBD really does work i'm think about taking it for my anxiety, it's worked wonders for my brothers painful back problems mainly because of an out of place hip cos of his weight or maybe it was from the fall he had when he broke his wrist who knows.. but it only takes 1 CBD pill and most of the pain is gone it's FAR better than pain meds, doesn't make you high and he honestly seems FAR less anxious and restless too and may also be helping him with his Stress Eating :) it's worth a try. |
