Friends I have taken so far 15 RTPCR tests during last 11 months all came negative .*
I have taken over 30 flights in last one year . Also I was with my mother in hospital taking her care at Nagpur . *Even at one time all my 3 family members were Covid postive and I was staying with them with precautions but I was negative
One reason why I could prevent Corona is , I apply coconut oil in the nose 4 times a day . Yes it works
How it works ?
Mechanism of action of coconut oil :
There are three modes of action which explained the antimicrobial efficacy of coconut oil and it metabolites (Lauric acid and Monolaurin), these are given as follows
1. Disintegration of the lipid membrane
The antiviral activities of lauric acid and monolaurin was initially reported in 1979 by Sands and team (Sands et al. 1979) and later it was investigated in 1982 by Hierholzer and Kabara (HIERHOLZER and KABARA 1982). It was found that monolaurin was able to reduce the infectivity of human RNA and DNA enveloped viruses in cell culture by >99.9% by disintegrating the virus envelope. Another study confirmed this effect and stated that lauric acid and monolaurin has an ability to inactivate the viruses by disintegrating the cell membrane (Thormar et al. 1987). Also, lauric acid is used for the production of sodium lauryl sulfate which is strong surfactant having potent antiviral properties; study showed that it is bale to denature the viral envelope (Dayrit and Newport 2020, Piret et al. 2000).
2. Inhibits pathogen maturation
Metabolites of virgin coconut oil used to produce highly ordered membranes, which is supposed to disrupt pathogens’ cellular function by affecting signal transduction owing to blockage of promoters, disentanglement of energy systems, changed respiration state, and altered amino acid uptake. Among the saturated fatty acids from C10 to C18, lauric acid was found to be most active inhibitor against Junin virus (JUNV). It was reported that Lauric acid alters the amino acid sequence of virus results in formation of blockages in the assembly of viral progeny (Bartolotta et al. 2001).
3. Prevents pathogen binding to host cell
As discussed above, lauric acid doesn’t allow the protein synthesis of pathogen by preventing the binding of membrane protein with host cell. In 1994, researchers proposed that in the presence of lauric acid, the production of infectious vesicular stomatitis virus was inhibited in a dose-dependent and reversible manner: after removal of lauric acid, the antiviral effect disappeared
(Hornung, Amtmann, and Sauer 1994).
So you also can try and get benifits
Please start doing it, it works.
Once you apply it covers for 3 to 4 hrs so I apply 4 to 5 times a day . Infact, I carry small bottle of. Coconut oil with me .
This is my own experience and it's scientific and traditional ayurvedic belief also .
You can use any pure coconut oil edible grade
These are my personal views and sharing you to prevent spread of covid
Thanks !
