We know from use and clinical investigation in the Western world that the root of this legume (a type of plant which enriches the soil and produces proteins by having nodules or "bumps" on its roots that collect nitrogen from the air) does indeed activate the liver to produce a substance called interferon. Interferon holds tightly to the surface of body cells and causes them to produce the body's own antibodies (proteins) which kill viruses and viral infections.
