Cistus Incanus is a natural product and sold as a nutritional supplement. It works against the retrovirus HIV by targetting the proteins[1]. It works as an entry inhibitor[2] at the entry level which means it prevents the entry of the virus into the cell in a very early state and prevents virus particles from docking on cells.
It works also against bacteria[3] and viruses [4] and has antifungal activity[5].
It seems that it also has positive effect against the cause of ME[6]
