In the news: CBD in therapeutic amounts seem to increase the innate anti-viral system of cells readiness to respond to viral infection, including COVID.
Researchers found that synthetic cannabidiol (CBD) augments the anti-viral response of cells to three key proteins produced by the SARS-CoV-2 genome – which was, until now, an unknown effect.
The researchers studied these proteins in human kidney cells, both alone and in combination with CBD, as well as the effects of CBD in healthy control cells.
