🛡️ Virus nature, history and plants that the body can use to defend itself.

A virus is a sub microscopic infectious that replicates it only inside is living in organisms. Viruses naturally exist in the microbiome (intestines) surprisingly enough. There has been viruses since the existence of time. Deadly outbreaks such as the Black death, new world smallpox, 1918 flu, the c19 ETC are just a few. For millions of people have lost their life. Viruses are constantly involving and so does the methods to protect the body. Thankfully nature provided powerful plants that have antiviral agents. Plants are stationary by majority and cannot leave when a potential threat happens. During the evolution of plants they had to develop ways to protect themselves against viruses, parasites, funguses, bacteria etc.

When we consume plants we ingest the ability to help inhibit replication, boosting immune response, reducing inflammation etc

When we kiss on these plants we obtain the ability to inhibiting replication, boosting immune response, and reducing inflammation.

The Victory2Health antiviral supplements contain lemon balm, astragalus, chlorella, olive leaf, sea moss, green tea, elderberry, kelp, matcha, and black seed.

🍋 1. Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis)

rosmarinic acid and eugenol, which block viral replication and protect healthy cells from infection. Viruses targeted herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), Influenza A, Enteroviruses

🌿 2. Astragalus Root

Astragalus is an immunomodulator, stimulating interferon production—your body’s natural antiviral protein—and enhancing white blood cell activity.

Viruses targeted Coxsackie B virus, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Hepatitis B

🌊 3. Chlorella

Chlorella is a nutrient-dense algae with chlorophyll, beta-glucans, and peptides that enhance natural killer (nk) cell activity and block viral attachment.

Viruses targeted Influenza, Adenovirus, HIV (in studies)

🌿 4. Olive Leaf Extract

Olive leaves contains oleuropein, a compound that interferes with virus entry and inhibits replication.Viruses targeted Herpes simplex viru HIV

• Rotavirus

• Respiratory viruses

🪸 5. Sea Moss (Irish Moss)

Is a good source of iodine, zinc and sulfated polysaccharides that can trap and neutralize viruses before they infect cells.

Viruses targeted:

• Human papillomavirus (HPV)

• Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)

• Herpes simplex virus

📚 Study:Journal of Applied Phycology found carrageenan from sea moss reduced viral load significantly in vitro.

🍵 6. Green Tea (Camellia sinensis)

Loaded with catechins—especially EGCG—green tea fights viruses by binding to their membranes and blocking reproduction.

Viruses targeted:

• Influenza

• Hepatitis B and C

• Dengue

• HIV

📚 Study: EGCG has been found to inhibit influenza virus infectivity by more than 90% in lab settings.

🌑 7. Elderberry (Sambucus nigra)

How it works: Elderberry's anthocyanins and flavonoids directly block viral binding and increase cytokine production for stronger immune signaling.

Viruses targeted:

• Influenza

• Rhinovirus

• Coronaviruses (studied against previous SARS-CoV strains)

📚 Study: A randomized controlled trial in The Journal of International Medical Research found elderberry extract reduced flu symptoms 4 days faster than placebo.

🌊 8. Kelp

How it works: Contains fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide that inhibits viral replication and stimulates antiviral immune responses.

Viruses targeted:

• Herpes

• Dengue

• HIV

📚 Study: Research in Marine Drugs shows fucoidan’s strong antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects.

🌑 9. Black Seed (Nigella sativa)

How it works: Rich in thymoquinone, which has been shown to boost immune function, inhibit viral enzymes, and protect lungs and tissues from viral damage.

Viruses targeted:

• Cytomegalovirus (CMV)

• HIV

• Hepatitis C

• SARS-CoV-2 (in preliminary studies)

📚 Study: A 2021 study published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine reported that black seed significantly improved recovery from mild COVID-19 when used alongside standard therapy.

Other Notable Antiviral Herbs & Spices:

• Garlic – allicin directly disrupts viral membranes

• Ginger – prevents viral replication & protects respiratory lining

• Oregano oil – carvacrol fights flu, norovirus, and more

• Licorice root – glycyrrhizin shown effective against SARS-CoV-1

• Cinnamon (Ceylon) – contains antiviral polyphenols

🧠 Why You Should Use Antivirals Regularly

Most people only take herbs when they're already sick. But building antiviral resilience daily helps your body:

• Prevent viral infections before they take hold

• Shorten duration and severity of symptoms if you do get sick

• Reduce long-term complications from recurring or latent viral infections (e.g. herpes, EBV)

• Support long-term immune balance, especially in times of stress
