Effects of CBD on Covid-19

How Can CBD Help the Spread Against Covid-19?

Effects of CBD on Covid-19 – Covid-19 has been apparent for the last two years and counting. Many of us have been affected by the pandemic, with financial stresses and a decline in mental health. With its rapid increase in infection rate as well as transmissions, individuals have been seeking ways to protect themselves from the infection. With mental and emotional toles taken during the pandemic, a large majority of people have turned to the world of cannabis for help. But how exactly does CBD affect Covid-19? How does CBD have the potential to prevent and inhibit the virus?

The Effects of CBD on Covid-19

For those who are new to our blog at the Healing Co, we talk A LOT about CBD. CBD is the non-psychoactive component to the cannabis plant, and works in opposition to THC. It carries its own array of benefits, which you can read about HERE. How exactly can we benefit from CBD in terms of Covid-19? CBD is said to inhibit the viral replication of the virus in our body’s cells. A study was conducted at the University of Chicago where human lung cells were treated with a small amount of CBD for two hours before being exposed to Covid-19. The cells were infected and monitored for 48 hours. The results were quite surprising. An inhibition in cell expression for Covid-19 was observed. Furthermore, it was proven that Covid-19 cells could not replicate while CBD was present in those cells. CBD was shown to suppress the virus by making changes in the gene expression of Covid-19 cells. This means the virus was altered permanently, not being able to be replicated further or expressed properly. Another study performed by the University of Waterloo revealed that CBD helped the body activate its immune response to viruses more effectively. In terms of Covid-19, our first line of immune defence doesn’t work as well comparatively to other viruses. CBD allows this first line to activate more effectively against Covid-19, resulting in a greater ability to fight the virus. Through both of these studies, CBD was shown to suppress the virus by making changes to the gene expression of the virus permanently, thus not being able to be expressed or replicated properly.

Mechanisms CBD Uses Against Covid-19

A potential mechanism that CBD could use to degenerate Covid-19 cells and suppress viral infection is through the activation of our bodies interferon signaling pathway. Interferons contribute to our bodies immune responses. Covid-19 is said to suppress this system, which causes the spread of the infection throughout our body. CBD is said to activate, or induce interferons, thus inducting our immune response to disease. Because of this induces response from CBD, Covid-19 isn’t able to transmit as easy, thus preventing further infection. Not only does CBD prevent the spread, it also lowers the total risk of infection in humans. Additionally, CBD has shown to help activate another protective process in infected cells known as the “unfolded protein response”. This response works on the area of cells that get taken over by virus cells in order to copy more virus cells within the body. The unfolded protein response works to maintain the functionality of cells that are under stress, often times from viruses. This response helps prevent the overall production of additional viral proteins, allowing the body to rid itself of infection and illness. Covid-19 uses spike proteins to enter healthy cells. Once invading healthy cells it then works to replicate itself and produce more viral cells, overall infecting a person with Covid-19. Due to the unfolded protein response, Covid-19 proteins are unable to replicate, thus containing the virus within the body.
