Researchers in Maine have determined that uncooked lobster hemolymph — a fluid equivalent to blood in most invertebrates — has a number of antiviral, medicinal purposes and may even be effective against the viruses that cause shingles and warts.
According to the Bangor Daily News, the industry researchers have even developed a lobster blood-based healing cream called LobsterRx that is supposed to be the cat’s whiskers for treating dry skin, chapped lips, cold sores, minor cuts and burns.
