Garcinia extract suppressed coronavirus symptoms
Garcinia extract can suppress pneumonia and other symptoms of coronavirus infection, Vechernyaya Moskva reports, citing research by scientists.
“Many of the symptoms of coronavirus infection are believed to be related to the fact that the proteins in its shell cause a powerful inflammatory response and cause immune cells to produce substances that enhance it. We have shown that this can be prevented with the help of garcinia extract and seeds, ”the doctors say.
Garcinia is a tropical plant whose fruits, seeds and bark are widely used in traditional African medicine for parasites and bronchitis. Several substances are present in plant cells at once, which have a strong anti-inflammatory effect.
Scientists prepared an extract from garcinia seeds and treated them with coronavirus-infected cells. Within a few hours, the production of coronavirus proteins decreased. According to doctors, the effect of garcinia is comparable to the powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that doctors use to treat severe forms of COVID-19.
Researchers from the Joint Institute for High Temperatures of the Russian Academy of Sciences have come up with a new way to fight viruses and bacteria – an air purifier. The invention also works for SARS-CoV-2.
