Re: Interesting Hypothesis To Control HIV/AIDS Nutritionally

[Guest guest]

While an optimum mix of vitamins, minerals, and other supplements is essential in maximizing health, I am unaware of any significant direct impact that these can have on the virus. A few percent of people have some genetic protection against HIV disease protection .. about 2% from what I have read in the literature. The rest of us have to deal eventually with the (#@$%$#!$) meds.

Selenium (brand Selenomax) is said to result in an increase of CD4 cells, and mine did go from 250 to 390 during the several months I tried it. However, since CD4 counts bounce around (and my percent CD4 cells stayed constant during this period) I am not sure that my experience has any medical significance. If you search on line you will find some clinical study information on this mineral.

That is plain fiction, supplements do not prevent

facial wasting,

nor do they improve it.

Many thanks to Mooney for sharing this article from Townsend

Letters. Harold 's article about deficencies of Selenium,

Cysteine,Glutamine,and Trypophan in people who are HIV-1 seropositve

is enlightening. 's book 'What Really Causes AIDS' can be

accessed from the www.Townsend Letter.com site. In his book he makes a

compelling argument that eliminating the deficencies of these four

nutrients is a key step in preventing progression to AIDS in people who

are infected with HIV.

There is no evidence that "deficiencies" of supplements are involved in the pathogensis of AIDS, and to post such missinformation does no service to anyone living with HIV.People who are seronegative and not healthcare providers, and who have at best a limited understanding of HIV pathogenesis should not be trying to guide the treatment decisions of people living with HIV, especially if they are making money from their efforts.JB
