Methods and formulations for treating and preventing LONG COVID sequelae are provided. An example method treats loss of smell and taste from SARS-CoV-2 infection, including assessing the patient, administering a composition with dosage between 1750-3600 mg per day, wherein the composition comprises a mixture of at least a withanolide-A, a boswellic acid, a [6]-gingerol, and a curcuminoid. Another example method treats memory loss or brain fog from SARS-CoV-2 infection, including assessing the patient, and administering a regenerative and neuroprotective composition comprising a mixture of withanoside VI, withanolide A, a Boswellia serrata plant, a Zingiber officinale rhizome, and a Curcuma longa rhizome. The compositions were found effective, achieving statistical significance in a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III clinical trial.

The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a purified cannabaceae biomass extract, wherein a crude alcoholic cannabaceae biomass extract comprising at least two cannabinoid compounds in an alcoholic solvent is circulating through a powdered layer of activated carbon and the purified cannabaceae biomass extract is recovered with a ratio of cannabinoid compounds in the purified cannabaceae biomass extract is higher than the ratio of the cannabinoid compounds in the crude alcoholic cannabaceae biomass extract.

Disclosed is a curcumin nanoparticle, including curcumin as core material and a wall material, where a weight ratio of the curcumin to the wall material is (5.5-7.5):100, and the wall material includes gum arabic and zein in a weight ratio of (1-5):5. The disclosure further provides a method of making the curcumin nanoparticle and a curcumin beverage containing the curcumin nanoparticle.

Generally, the inventive technology relates to systems, methods, and compositions to formulate short-chain fatty acid phenolic compounds, such as cannabinoids, terpenes and other volatile compounds found in cannabinoid-producing plants such as Cannabis. In one embodiment, a natural or treated aloe vera extract may act as a cannabinoid-carrier and/or solubilizing agent forming one or more cannabinoid-infused aloe vera extract compositions, generally referred to herein as a composition or formulation of the invention. In one preferred aspect, the formulations and compositions of the invention may include safer and more palatable cannabinoid-delivery methods for both medicine and recreation. The formulations and compositions of the invention may further exhibit enhanced pharmacokinetic properties, such as enhanced bioavailability and increase adsorption in the gastrointestinal system.

A process of extracting bioactive compounds from one or more plant material is provided. The process includes agitation of one or more plant material in the presence of piperine and palmitoylethanolamide to produce a powder blend, supplying of a polar solvent to the powder blend and then adding a nonpolar solvent after at least 24 hours of infusion of the powder blend in the polar solvents to form a slurry. The slurry is further filtered to recover bioactive compounds in a liquid extract form.

A method for preparing a Plectranthus amboinicus (PA) extract, the method comprising extracting an above-ground part of Plectranthus amboinicus with an extracting solution that comprises a solvent having a suitable polarity index, filtrating and concentration the extract thus produced, and subject the concentrated extract to a chromatographic separation process using a hydrophobic interaction chromatography resin to produce the PA extract.

The present invention provides for a method for obtaining an oil extract of cannabis. The method includes: (a) contacting cannabis biomass and an edible oil; (b) pressing between a pair of plates to provide spent cannabis and an oil extract of cannabis; and (c) separating the spent cannabis biomass and the oil extract of cannabis.

The present invention relates to a novel homeopathic composition useful for treating pain and/or inflammation comprising tinctures and/or diluted extracts. More particularly, there is provided a composition which contains a synergistic combination of extracts from Terminalia arjuna, Sticta pulmonaria, Colchicum autumnale, Gelsemium sempervirens, Ledum palustre and Cissus quadrangularis. The present invention also provides a method of preparation of the homeopathic drug composition as topical preparation, preferably as topical spray composition. Cissus quadrangularis extraction is also a novel process used in the composition where in cold extraction is applied for Cissus quadrangularis.

Cannabidivarin (CBDV) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(1R,6R)-3-Methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-propyl-1,3-benzenediol. Its empirical formula is C19H26O2 and its molecular weight is 286.4 g/mol. CBDV is a cannabinoid that naturally occurs in the Cannabis sativa L. plant. CBDV is an off-white to pale yellow crystalline solid which is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. The present invention encompasses the surprising recognition that certain CBDV preparations which are prepared from a botanical origin are more effective in treating diseases or disorders than preparations of CBDV which are synthetic or purified to the extent no other impurities in the form of other cannabinoids are present. Prior CBDV compositions have been prepared such that no psychoactive components, e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), remain in the final CBDV preparation. Surprisingly, the absence of such minor impurities reduces the efficacy of CBDV treatment. Such CBDV preparations are characterized by chemical components and/or functional properties that distinguish them from prior CBDV compositions. One or more components of the preparations described herein provide an unexpectedly synergistic effect when utilized in combination.

The present invention relates to a maca extract and uses thereof. The part of the maca extract extracted with polar solvent has anti-thrombotic activity, the part of the maca extract extracted with medium and low polarity solvents has anti-neutrophilic inflammatory and anti-allergic activities, the part of the maca extract extracted with low polarity solvent has anti-neutrophilic inflammatory activity and has pro-angiogenic activity.
