It is a well-known fact that vitamin D performs several important functions, from boosting immune health to regulating blood pressure. Over the past decade, multiple studies have also provided evidence that taking vitamin D could reduce the odds of developing infections like the common cold and the flu. Given these precedents and the ongoing pandemic, scientists are now eager […]

Rapid mutations cause doubts about long-term coronavirus immunity
A joint study by two top epidemic research institutes in China warns that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) has gone through rapid mutations since January, and these genetic changes may allow it to spread for much longer than expected. In a paper posted in the pre-print server bioRxiv, researchers at Guangzhou Medical University and Fudan University stated that the coronavirus has acquired six major […]

Here’s the lowdown on whether the coronavirus has already mutated
The Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) has now infected over 5.6 million people worldwide, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. As experts continue to study the contagion, some have suggested that there is more than one strain of the coronavirus. They believe that these mutations have greatly altered how infectious and deadly the virus is. Since the emergence of SARS-CoV-2, […]

Study finds that olive leaf extract exhibits anti-malaria effects in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei
Olives (Olea europaea) are drupes, or stone fruits, that grow from trees commonly found in the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean region, southeastern Europe, northern Iran, western Asia and northern Africa. Despite being fruits, fresh olives aren’t consumed as such because of their extremely bitter taste. Instead, they are marketed either as olive oil […]

Evaluating the anti-malaria effects of Olea europaea leaf (olive leaf) extract in mice
In this study, researchers from Ethiopia investigated the anti-malarial activity of Olea europaea against Plasmodium berghei infected mice and determined which fractions the constituents responsible for this activity are concentrated. Their findings were published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Drug resistance poses a challenge to malaria control measures, hence the development of new therapeutic agents is […]
