A hospital in Austria makes headlines after treating COVID-19 patients with CBD oil.
\nA significant development in professional healthcare that promises a bright future for cannabinoid-based treatments during the coronavirus pandemic. Here\u2019s what we know about the treatment in Austria\u2014and the use of CBD oil for treating COVID-19 in general: <\/p>\n

CBD Treatment at the<\/strong>
\nHospital<\/strong> The Klagenfurt Clinic in Austria regularly uses cannabidiol (CBD) derived from industrial hemp to treat patients with COVID-19, reports the local news agency Heute<\/a>. Apparently, they have been successfully using the plant-based cannabinoid for quite some time. According to Rudolf Likar\u2014Head of Intensive Care at the clinic\u2014doctors observed \u201cinflammation markers in the blood decrease and patients are discharged from the hospital faster than those in the control group.\u201d
\nAs he concludes: \u201cCBD supports the immune system.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reportedly, patients with COVID-19 at the Klagenfurt clinic were treated with up to 300 mg of CBD per day.
\nA dosage created during the three-week treatment period. However, considering Israeli scientists have announced<\/a> a number of different research projects covering the use of CBD in patients with COVID-19. We could expect many more hospitals to start using CBD oils and other supplements to treat patients battling the new coronavirus. <\/p>\n

CBD Oil Against COVID-19<\/strong>
\nIt is well known that cannabinoids such as cannabidiol could have a positive impact on our immune system and our overall health<\/a>. The substance is widely used in the hope of treating various symptoms, ranging from mild discomforts to serious illnesses. However, in the case of COVID-19, the effects of CBD are a bit more complex than simply \u201cboosting the immune system.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are several animal studies suggesting that cannabidiol (CBD) could help protect against\u2014and may reduce existing\u2014lung damage caused by COVID-19. This is because CBD is able to reduce the cytokine storm in the lungs caused by Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS<\/a>).
\nThe latter is the leading cause of death in patients with COVID-19. <\/p>\n

As we have noted in studies on our blog:\u201cCBD oil and vitamin D3 could help treat and prevent COVID-19,\u201d<\/a> CBD\u2019s ability to reduce cytokine release\u2014and thereby reduce inflammation in the lungs\u2014stems from its effect on the body\u2019s production of apelin. Which, as we discovered, is somewhat inhibited by COVID-19, but fortunately appears to be restored after treatment with cannabinoids.
\nThis demonstrates the effectiveness of CBD oil in the treatment and\/or prevention of severe coronavirus infections.<\/p>\n

Use of CBD oil to prevent or treat the coronavirus<\/strong>
\nObviously, the information in this blog is intended solely for educational purposes and is in no way intended to replace medical advice from healthcare professionals. Although it points to a promising future for cannabinoid-based treatments against COVID-19 and other cytokine-induced respiratory problems. <\/p>\n

In addition to CBD, there are a number of other substances that have been shown to be potentially useful in treating COVID-19.
\nAs discussed in the blog post mentioned above, vitamin D could also help prevent and treat the novel coronavirus. Therefore, we have developed a\u2014completely VEGAN\u2014 CBD oil with vitamin D3<\/a>. In an effort to protect against such diseases and offer those seeking natural supplements a perfect blend for a healthier immune response. <\/p>\n
