New Study Shows Bee Venom Kills HIV

[mson]

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have undertaken a breakthrough study that will change the future.

The study shows that a toxin in bee venom called melittin is capable of killing the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). The toxin works by poking holes in the envelope of the virus, essentially destroying it’s protective coat and “killing” it.

Research instructor Joshua L. Hood MD, PhD stated, “We are attacking an inherent physical property of HIV. Theoretically, there isn’t any way for the virus to adapt to that. The virus has to have a protective coat, a double-layered membrane that covers the virus.”

According to U.S. News & World Report, the study was published last Thursday in the journal Antiviral Therapy.

You cant stop a bee venom cure can you. All you need is an agent to deliver the bee venom to those cells.

my skeptic alarm goes off immediately when I see "cure" or "kills" along with "HIV".

take a bunch of benadryl and hope you don't go into anaphylactic shock
