Common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) efficiently blocks the interaction between ACE2 cell surface receptor and SARS-CoV-2 spike protein D614, mutants D614G, N501Y, K417N and E484K in vitro

On 11th March 2020, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, was declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). To date, there are rapidly spreading new “variants of concern” of SARS-CoV-2, the United Kingdom (B.1.1.7), the South African (B.1.351) or Brasilian (P.1) variant. All of them contain multiple mutations in the ACE2 receptor recognition site of the spike protein, compared to the original Wuhan sequence, which is of great concern, because of their potential for immune escape. Here we report on the efficacy of common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) to block protein-protein interaction of spike S1 to the human ACE2 cell surface receptor. This could be shown for the original spike D614, but also for its mutant forms (D614G, N501Y, and mix of K417N, E484K, N501Y) in human HEK293-hACE2 kidney and A549-hACE2-TMPRSS2 lung cells. High molecular weight compounds in the water-based extract account for this effect. Infection of the lung cells using SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudotyped lentivirus particles was efficiently prevented by the extract and so was virus-triggered pro-inflammatory interleukin 6 secretion. Modern herbal monographs consider the usage of this medicinal plant as safe. Thus, the in vitro results reported here should encourage further research on the clinical relevance and applicability of the extract as prevention strategy for SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Where’s the coverage?

Like that lady doctor in Peru with peroxide, ivermectin, and vitamins, why haven’t we heard about this?  Either positive or negative.

I know Big Pharma ain’t going to make a lot of money off of dandelions either but where are the Gooferment “scientists” studying this — quickly.

I found it via survival blog can’t they.

HEALTH: Blatant suppression — doctors with impeccable credentials are being deplatformed

Wednesday, July 7, 2021

https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2021/07/04/covid-vaccine-risks.aspx?ui=f9839516412491bb1e06c9e47058c6fb81b9b9b6acedf03e65e93dfdb263c1b9&sd=20210317&cid_source=dnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1HL&cid=20210704&mid=DM926909&rid=1200052769

Might COVID Injections Reduce Lifespan?
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
July 04, 2021

*** begin quote ***

My problem is not with the vaccine. My problem is with the government, governing bodies and certain people that are obstructing the flow of life saving information and suppressing the truth from people, and then using coercion to force people to take this vaccine. That’s the nefarious part.

The suppression is so blatant and so overt that doctors with impeccable credentials are being deplatformed for just voicing an opinion. And then you couple that together with proven prehospital treatment approaches and protocols that have been proven to reduce hospitalization and death by 85%, and that information is being suppressed.

So here you have a dual censorship where the positive, hopeful, life-saving information is being suppressed and the dangerous outcomes of the vaccination approach is being suppressed. It’s a perfect setup for genocide.”

*** end quote ***

I wonder if anyone is ever going to be held accountable for their support of the COVID Injections.

Remember EPA Christie Whitman: “Ground Zero Air Is Safe” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/sep/10/epa-head-wrong-911-air-safe-new-york-christine-todd-whitman

Yet, “everyone” knows that Big Pharma is in for the big payday.

It seems like everyone has suspend their good judgment.

Argh!

HEALTH: Make every day a “broccoli” day without “proof”

Tuesday, June 22, 2021

https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-food-that-can-downregulate-a-metastatic-cancer-gene/?utm_source=NutritionFacts.org&utm_campaign=0f84580fc5-RSS_VIDEO_WEEKLY&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_40f9e497d1-0f84580fc5-25228005&mc_cid=0f84580fc5&mc_eid=f40a62cbab

The Food That Can Downregulate a Metastatic Cancer Gene
Michael Greger M.D. FACLM June 14th, 2021 Volume 54 

  • Women with breast cancer should include the “liberal culinary use of cruciferous vegetables.”

*** begin quote ***

Ovarian cancer. “Cruciferous vegetable…[intake] significantly favor[ed] survival”, whereas “a survival disadvantage was shown for meats.” Milk also appeared to double the risk of dying. Here are the survival graphs. Eight years out, for example, about 40 percent of ovarian cancer patients who averaged meat or milk every day were dead, compared to only about 20 percent who just had meat or milk a few times a week at most.

Now, it could just be that the fat and cholesterol in the meat increased circulating estrogen levels, or because of meat’s growth hormones, or all the carcinogens. And galactose, the sugar naturally found in milk, may also be directly toxic to the ovary, and dairy has got all the hormones too. However, the lowering of risk with broccoli and the increasing of risk with meat and dairy are also consistent with the CD36 mechanism of cancer spread we’ve been talking about.

*** end quote ***

Hmmm, docs can NOT “prove” that broccoli is a miracle anti-cancer “drug”.

But, low cost side effect free “treatment”?  How much proof does one need?

Even if they’re wrong and they can’t say why there’s a broccoli effect, why not just jump ahead of the “proof” in case they are wright?

Doesn’t seem much downside!

HEALTH: Low fat prescription for breast cancer reoccurrence

How to Help Control Cancer Metastasis with Diet
Michael Greger M.D. FACLM June 9th, 2021 Volume 54 

*** begin quote ***

Randomized controlled trials show lowering saturated fat intake can lead to improved breast cancer survival.

*** end quote ***

Not sure if one can make the leap that if after is good, then before is better.

Nor am I sure that if it’s good for the gals, then it’s got to be good for the boys.

BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), there appears no real “cost” to doing it, nor any apparent real “side effects”, so why not?

“Low fat” from everyone until there’s evidence otherwise.

It’s a “no brainer” like subbing in veggies for meat.

HEALTH: Are COVID Vaccines a Good Bet? (NO!)

Are COVID Vaccines a Good Bet?, by L. Reichard White
Special to L. Neil Smith’s The Libertarian Enterprise

*** begin quote ***

Everything’s a gamble, even crossing the street. That’s clearly the case with the COVID-19 vaccines, bum-rushed into production in less than one-sixth the normal time.

*** and ***

Given the facts, should these experimental vaccines be bums-rushed off the market?

HEALTH: Decide about the WuFlu vax?

Monday, May 31, 2021

FROM AN EMAIL TO A FRIEND:

I sympathize with everyone because “knowing” what the right thing to do is currently impossible.  There is so much “noise” from “experts” that seems to change with the time of day. 

As far as healthy children taking the new “vaccines”, that seems “unnecessary” given that the data suggests they don’t get the WuFlu and if they do it’s very mild.  But, each parent must decide what risks they will and won’t take.

I’ll never criticize anyone who makes one choice or another.  You pays your money and takes your chances. 

For me personally, I’m not very keen on the whole decision process.  Seems unsubstantiated and rushed. Even my doctors have said privately “wait and see”.  One suggested that with my various blood chemistries (i.e., high levels of D, B1, C; lack of any severe medical problems) that I may be naturally immune. (Surprised me?). 

I’m not an anti-vaxer by any means  — just finished the shingles vax and planning to get the pneumonia vax in mid-Jun  — but i never get the flu vax because it’s low benefit for the risk  — but I think one must be extremely careful about what we do is for the right reasons.  There’s no undo button.

Every time I hear a “public service announcement” by anybody, I think of ex-EPA Christie Whitman: “Ground Zero Air Is Safe” and all the mesothelioma lawyers on TV.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/sep/10/epa-head-wrong-911-air-safe-new-york-christine-todd-whitman 

So to, I try to be charitable to those who have drank the Kool Aid, taken the blue pill or are making imho a “big mistake”.  I’m not a doctor, lawyer, or Indian Chief and I could be very wrong.  If I suffer harm following my opinions, then I know who to blame.  If I follow the herd, ignore my own opinions, and harm befalls me, then who do I blame.

I can state my opinions and reasons relatively firmly but everyone has to chart their own course.

As far as interference with God’s design, that’s so far above my pay grade that I can’t see it.  I do think that we are like children playing with guns  — we know so little, we don’t know what we don’t know, and have no concept of the consequences  — it’s a bad gamble.

In twenty years, maybe the TV commercials will be “if you took the J&J vaccine and had all your hair ingrown, you or your estate can be eligible for a large cash settlement.”

HEALTH: Reopening Texas ‘100 Percent’ Had “No Impact”

Saturday, May 29, 2021

https://www.allsides.com/news/2021-05-21-1458/new-study-confirms-reopening-texas-100-percent-had-no-discernible-impact-covid

A New Study Confirms That Reopening Texas ‘100 Percent’ Had No Discernible Impact on COVID-19 Cases or Deaths
Reason (analysis) 

“Anthony Fauci, Biden’s top COVID-19 adviser, said lifting mask mandates ‘is really quite risky,’ because ‘when you pull back on measures of public health, invariably you’ve seen a surge’ in cases and deaths. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said she had a ‘recurring feeling’ of ‘impending doom,’ warning that premature relaxation of ‘public health prevention strategies’ could lead to a ‘fourth surge.’ More than two months later, the public health disaster predicted by Abbott’s critics has not materialized.”

# – # – # – # – #

“Well, I’m not a <insert profession that requires a lot of study>, I have never played one on TV, and I didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but here are some simple thoughts.” (My standard disclaimer!)

But putting on my “infectious disease” costume, white coat and all, and I think it is factual to say that we don’t know squat about the WuFlu.

And certainly should be taking “medical advice” from new readers, celebrities, Gooferment bureaucrats, or politicians.

Safest is to decide for yourself, with input from YOUR doctor, what risks you want to take.

I have; I urge you to do likewise.

HEALTH: Scientists predict the maximum human lifespan

Wednesday, May 26, 2021

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-9617293/Scientists-predict-maximum-human-lifespan-suggest-150-oldest-age-reach.html

Scientists predict the maximum human lifespan – and suggest 150 is the oldest age we’ll EVER reach

  • Researchers used extensive medical and fitness data from UK and US volunteers
  • This included blood test results, daily steps taken and information on their DNA
  • This was fed into an artificial intelligence system to calculate maximum lifespan 
  • The authors found that resilience and biological age play key roles in lifespan
  • Finding that the maximum a human can live naturally is from 120 to 150 years

HEALTH: A statin intolerance?

Thursday, May 20, 2021

https://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-common-are-muscle-side-effects-from-statins/?utm_source=NutritionFacts.org&utm_campaign=c675aa0655-RSS_VIDEO_WEEKLY&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_40f9e497d1-c675aa0655-25228005&mc_cid=c675aa0655&mc_eid=f40a62cbab

How Common Are Muscle Side Effects from Statins?
Michael Greger M.D. FACLM May 3rd, 2021 Volume 53

*** begin quote ***

When asked why, most former statin users, or discontinuers, cited muscle pain, a side effect, as the primary reason for stopping the pills. By far the most prevalent and important adverse events, up to 72 percent of all statin side effects are statin-associated muscle symptoms. Taking coenzyme Q10 supplements as a treatment for statin-associated muscle symptoms was a good idea in theory, but they don’t actually appear to help. Normally, side-effect symptoms go away when you stop the drug, but sometimes can linger a year or more. But there is evidently growing evidence that statin intolerance is predominantly psychosocial, not pharmacological. Wait; meaning maybe it’s mostly just in people’s heads?

*** end quote ***

Placebo effects are positive consequences falsely attributed to a treatment

Nocebo effects, kind of like the opposite of the placebo effect, are negative consequences falsely attributed to a treatment

Interesting. I’ve been complaining for a while about “stiff legs in the morning”. I never associated with the statin drugs that I have been taking. So it’s not nocebo in my case because I observed the sympton having never associated any connection to the drug. I’ll be interested if the “mystery” is ever figured out — if ever.

HEALTH: Guess the WuFlu “vaccine” isn’t a vaccine like we’re used to?

LATE NIGHT TV
‘Real Time With Bill Maher’ Cancels This Week’s Show After HBO Host Tests Positive For Covid-19
By Peter White, Erik Pedersen
May 13, 2021 3:29pm

*** begin quote ***

EXCLUSIVE: HBO has scrapped this week’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher after the comedian tested positive for Covid-19. Maher, who is vaccinated and asymptomatic, tested positive during the premium cable network’s weekly PCR testing ahead of the show.

It is a blow for the late-night show, which was set to entertain astrophysicist and StarTalkpodcaster Neil deGrasse Tyson as the top-of-show interview guest, and World War Z author Max Brooks and Hardcore History podcast host Dan Carlin as panelists.

“The Friday, May 14th taping of Real Time with Bill Maher has been cancelled. Bill tested positive during weekly staff PCR testing for COVID. He is fully vaccinated and as a result is asymptomatic and feels fine. Real Time production has taken every precaution following COVID CDC guidelines. No other staff or crew members have tested positive at this time. The show will be rescheduled at a later date,” an HBO spokeswoman told Deadline.

*** end quote ***

How can this be?

If I’ve been vaccinated for polio, I can NOT get it?

Guess we’re in new territory and you can’t believe the Gooferment, politicians, or bureaucrats!

EVER!
