Canadian scientists are testing whether compounds in marijuana can prevent coronavirus from 'hijacking' human cells

Researchers from the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada looked at 400 cannabis strains and focused on about a dozen

They studied how extracts high in CBD, the main nonpsychoactive ingredient in, interacted with receptors coronavirus uses to attack cells

The extracts lowered the number of receptors the virus uses to infects cells and multiply by more than 70%
