The present study on C57BL/6 mice revealed that WBM is a unique food that <b>A</b> ) interrupts DHT induced AR-TMPRSS2 expression in putative COVID-19 targeted organs through its AR antagonistic activity and <b>B</b> ) attenuates serum pro-inflammatory cytokines which have been implicated in COVID-19 pathogenesis. The gene discussed is TMPRSS2; the disease is COVID-19.
