The Olive Oil vs. Corona Online Challenge

Are you ready for a new science experience? Fancy an online challenge that could curb the spread of Corona? The goal is for you to learn about your body, how olive oil reacts to your unprotected mucosa- how the fat protects those areas of skin like a skin cream for days to come. Let’s take the oil in your body to where the PCR test is taken. Along the way, you’ll learn about the ingredients in olive oil (Wikipedia: hydroxytyrosol) which has been used by certain cultures for 1000’s of years to treat colds or throat irritations. I suspect this was simply overlooked in the fight against Corona right at the beginning and then many were too embarrassed to question it later. Now let’s create the material about this experiment that will force a professional to address this question.

“May the exercise succeed…”

Let’s get started… But beware, this should burn in the nose, so first read the entire text and then consider if you want to do this or if you have a few more questions for whoever recommended this challenge against Corona to you (linseed oil and coconut oil don’t burn, by the way).

1. First, you gargle in the back of your throat (with your head bent back, a tablespoon of olive oil, about 10ml, for 2-5 sec), similar to using a mouthwash (it may burn slightly).
2. Then, while the olive oil is still in your throat, bend all the way forward, so that your head swings freely (see picture below)… The olive oil will follow gravity and thus come into contact with the unprotected back of the nasal mucosa.

3. The burning sensation that comes now is the effect we are talking about. The more sensitive this area is, the more intense the burning sensation will be. Certain ingredients that have an antiviral effect in olive oil (polyphenols) penetrate the mucous membrane at the top of the nose along with the oil. Olive oil as an antiviral skin cream, so to speak.

The burning can last between 5 and 20 seconds. The fat in the oil covers these areas at the same time, so they are more protected in the future. I suspect it supports future regeneration in that area. This would explain why these areas are then more protected for the next 5-21 days (experience). Because it only burns intensely the first time and can vary from person to person depending on weather and skin condition. The more often it is repeated, the less it will burn. Feel free to try it a second time. You can then add that to your experience as well.

Connection to Corona:
You would feel a similar burning sensation if Corona left large areas of irritated mucosa in your throat and you gargled normally with olive oil. The effect is absolutely comparable and when gargling normally the burning sensation can extend to the ears in a moderate form with a Corona infestation. All mouthwashes or salt water rinses, which are supposedly in use against Corona, act on the mucous membrane. Only olive oil seals the mucous membrane and heals irritated areas over a period of days. It maintains and repairs the natural oral mucosa in the throat.

How is explained what is happening:
If the mucosa is intact, then olive oil cannot penetrate the cells underneath. However, if due to weather, age, pre-existing conditions, snoring or a viral infection (like Corona) the mucosa is irritated (short or long term), it becomes permeable. In the nose, the protective mucous membrane is completely absent. There, the ingredients then penetrate the skin together with the oil. Now, plant substances (polyphenols) are in the olive oil. I specifically mention the hydroxytyrosol, because there are many scientific publications that show how you can use this as an active ingredient against Corona. For example, there is a nasal spray (0.5 ml daily dose).

Now polyphenols – in an appropriately strong dose – slightly attack the mucosa. I suspect that this is the cause of the burning sensation. Since Corona is also supposed to be surrounded by a lipid membrane similar to human cells, Corona should also have this chemical effect (i.e. the burning sensation). The lipid membrane of Corona is a gift from the host cell in which it was produced. There is a diagram in the publication (Figure 1) showing how hydroxytyrosol attacks the virus.

The goal of this challenge is now to get this question to an expert and to the media. We need someone who can give a scientific statement and not only his opinion. Does the hydroxytyrosol in olive oil attack the virus, “yes or no“? And if so, what would happen if we all gargled with it as a preventive measure?

Summarized:
The olive oil works with its antiviral plant active substances exactly where Mr. Drosten looks for Corona in us with his Corona test sticks.

I guess neither Mr. Drosten, nor Mr. Lauterbach or the scholars of the WHO have managed to examine olive oil with a scientific accuracy in two years; and that while we entrusted them with billions of taxpayers’ money in the beginning as well as in the future. If hydroxytyrosol helps against corona, it would be very easy to confirm. We have thousands of people in the hospitals hoping it doesn’t get worse. Let’s have them (PCR positive tested) gargle with olive oil about 4 times 10 ml a day. Let’s saturate their mucosa with this antiviral agent and measure over time the concentration of the virus in the throat. If my experience is correct, the concentration of viruses in the throat should decrease significantly within 36 hours. This scientific fact can then be transferred by any government to those people who want to protect themselves preventively against Corona. Just like grandma used to do. “Here’s some olive oil and if it gets worse you stay home and give the immune system the rest it needs to fight against Corona.” And then if it gets much worse, there are plenty of free beds in the hospital. If we had prevented just 50% of fatal courses with this procedure that would have been a lot fewer deaths worldwide. How many people would never have ended up in the hospital because we simply used Grandma’s old home remedy for colds? A disease that started in a dictatorship and lobbyism can, if we want to, be ended scientifically by democracy and by the internet community working together. All you have to do is join in, gather new experiences, and thus give the idea room to grow.

At Google Scholar there are more publications about the effect of hydroxytyrosol on corona viruses. Have fun browsing.

Important:
As long as this is not scientifically confirmed minors should not do this challenge!

Basically:
Everyone who takes part in this challenge is responsible for himself and his actions.
There are allergy sufferers who do not tolerate olive oil, these should discuss this challenge in advance with a doctor.
