Until now there is no cure to the Novel coronavirus also known as Covid-19.  The best way to defend yourself is to enhance your immune system.

Many doctors have suggested that we can do that by adding supplements to our diets.

One of them is Prof. P. van der Voort. He has been in the Dutch news endorsing Resveratrol and as a result Resveratrol has been selling out. 

He claims that resveratrol is an interesting supplement that can be beneficial in multiple ways to fight Corona.

Resveratrol is an anti-oxidant

It has very good anti-inflammatory properties. It restores the balance between the ACE2- and AT2 receptors in a way that inflammation is being reduced.

Resveratrol also inhibits leptin production by fat cells. Corona patient in the ICU have a hightened leptin value which is a precursor for Trobose. It appears the Corona virus promotes leptin production, resveratrol counteracts this extra leptin production.

Resveratrol has a direct anti-viral properties. Because of this the virus is less likely to enter a cell and cause an inflammatory response.

And finally  resveratrol may prevent the coronavirus to bind to the receptor of a body cell.
