Can Medicinal Cannabis Help Long Covid Patients?

Medical cannabis or Cannabidiol (CBD) is taking the cannabis market by storm. Self-studies showed that CBD is instrumental in the fight against anxiety or depression, chronic pain, diabetes, and opioid addiction. Now, the big question is, can it help long covid patients?

Covid damages and upregulates four proteins; ACE2, cytokine Interleukin-6 (IL-6), transmembrane serine protease (TSP), and NRP1. My research established that CBD and cannabivarin (CVN) bind and dysregulate the aforementioned proteins, reducing the symptoms of long-covid. Although the results of Cannabis-Covid treatment are promising, further clinical studies are needed to blow out the effectiveness of cannabis fully.
