Snake poison, I don’t think so...I’ll pass.
A dry cough for someone who has lung problems. Yes, that’s the ticket. s/
Not anywhere near the concentration of the viper. The chemical affect of the viper’s bite is to reduced the blood pressure of it’s prey so low as to kill the mammal.
Controlled synthetic Angiotensin Converting Enzyme results in tissue level minute reductions in blood pressure naturally (just as ACE itself localizes the blood pressure needed by a person to stand up, run (run away from a predator) walk, maintain balance) and maintain blood oxygen to vital organs.
Nobel Prize for Medicine- for this discovery several decades ago.
Not “snake poison”. Read about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_and_development_of_ACE_inhibitors
Should also mention that the use of an ACE inhibitor down regulates the mode of infection of coronavirus, which is “infected” into a person through the ACE receptors of the lungs- engaged by the S-spike protein of a virus inserted into the ACE receptor on the lung lining— and voila- in comes the massive content, the long strand of RNA that codes for the virus— replicated in each successive cell of the lung, killing each. An ACE inhibitor drug, or an ACE blocker drug prevents the Spike S protein from inserting.
Study of the snake’s poison enabled the understanding of the entire human cardio-vascular endothelium and the means by which Oxygen carried in red blood cells—gets to the critical organs that keep us all alive.
