Dr. Mercola has issued this warning re: Oleandrin, which I noted in a
prior email with this link in it:

Sept. 2, 2020
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola Fact CheckedSTORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Rumors about the possibility of an oleandrin remedy has been swirling in recent weeks following the posting of a study on the preprint server bioRxiv, in which oleandrin was found to inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro
- This was an in vitro test, meaning these results were observed in a cell culture. Oleandrin has not been tested on animals or humans. This is a crucial distinction, as the oleander plant is well-known for its extreme toxicity
- The fact that it killed the virus in a cell culture does not suggest it would be an effective remedy for the simple fact that its high toxicity just might kill the patient along with the virus
- The American Botanical Council, an independent, nonprofit research and education organization, has issued an advisory, warning consumers against producing oleander-based home-remedies due to the plant’s extreme toxicity
- All parts of the oleander plant are poisonous. Oleandrin causes arrhythmia by interfering with the sodium-potassium pump of your heart
