Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Norm, Thanks for the excellent info. This is the sort of thing that might make a trip to the supplement store interesting.On Mar 3, 2006, at 9:17 AM, PozHealth wrote:Post-mortem and liver biopsy studies have shown that more than 80% of people with HIV have "non-alcoholic fatty liver." Fatty liver deregulates lipid metabolism and eventually leads to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. The "Diet for Metabolic Syndrome" you posted lists Betaine as a treatment. I previously posted a study by the Mayo Clinic, reproduced below, which showed 6 grams per day of Betaine, a metabolite of Choline and a methyl-donor, was very effective in reducing fat deposits in the liver after one year of treatment. There was a reduction in liver enzymes after only one month of usage. I take Betaine in eight 750 mg tablets divided into two doses. It smells fresh and if you suck on it, slightly acidic and citrus. I have found it to be very effective. Barrowpozbod@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
