Can You Protect Yourself Against Herpes or AIDS if HIV Positive? by Connie Hargrave, MA GLUTATHIONE protects against Infectious Diseases Don’t want herpes or genital herpes? Don’t want it again? Or do you want to stay HIV positive and not get AIDS? Or go back to HIV status? Science has learned a lot about how best to protect yourself. Here’s what you need to know to keep your system in top shape and not be susceptible to all kinds of viruses. If you are prone to those unwanted blisters, or are HIV positive, you would do well to be up do date on THE SCIENCE OF DEFENSE, because by the time you need OFFENSIVE weapons like antivirals, you are already down a path you’re best to avoid altogether! Nipping a blister outbreak in the bud? I have found that taking the amino acid L-Lycine stops mouth blisters, and that there are excellent remedies: Herpes Remedies Compared; Strategy of Warriors: Good Defense You will want to know the latest in how best to protect yourself from herpes as well as maintaining HIV rather than full blown AIDS. Apart from safe-sex, what are the scientific discoveries for best protection? Medical scientists are focusing more and more on defense, because offensive weapons like antivirals are proving to be limited. Let’s face it, medicine does not have infectious diseases under control! Not according to the Centers for Disease Control, which admits that “we are losing the war against infectious diseases.” And the next threatening virus is just around the corner, such as the bird flu, and bacterial diseases such as anthrax. Bird Flu Alert Fortunately, over the last few decades scientists have learned a lot about the immune system, especially from studying AIDs, which is an immune-compromised state, so that we have come a long way in knowing how to protect ourselves against viruses, including herpes and HIV. Thanks to AIDS and HIV, medical scientists have studied the immune system. They found out how white blood cells work best to protect us against invading micro-organisms such as herpes, and HIV. White blood cells are the front line of our defense, and that is why white blood cell counts are so crucial for many diseases from AIDS HIV to cancer – these counts tell us whether we are winning or losing! How To Nurture White Blood Cells? “One of the most important factors in keeping WHITE BLOOD CELLS active is their supply of glutathione, a substance manufactured by our bodies” says Dr. Jimmy Gutman, a specialist in emergency medicine, and former Chief Resident in Emergency Medicine at Emory University in Atlanta, “there is an impressive amount of research on glutathione and infectious diseases such as AIDS” and herpes. GSH Glutathione Blocks Viral Infection; AIDS, HIV and raising glutathione Dr. Gutman points out that glutathione depletion will eventually exhaust any ability of the WHITE BLOOD CELLS to keep fighting, so without a constant supply, we lose the battle. The trouble is that glutathione is rapidly consumed on a daily basis through normal metabolism, illness and even exercise. GLUTATHIONE protects against Infectious Diseases Turns out that “raising your glutathione is an effective way to ensure a strong body and vigorous resistance to microbial diseases such as herpes and HIV AIDS,” according to Dr. Gutman. HOW? “Eating glutathione to raise it is like eating brains to get smart,” he cautions. Rather, “an effective way to ensure that you have a good supply is by adding cysteine-rich protein to your diet.” This protein supplies the building blocks for your body to MAKE glutathione. It has undergone a number of clinical studies, and was proven to raise glutathione levels IN WHITE BLOOD CELLS by 35%. CYSTEINE - RICH PROTEIN Recovery from AIDS, HIV and Herpes When they gave this protein to people with AIDS who were so ill that they were not responding to their drugs, their immune kicked in again, they re-gained weight, and could eventually tolerate the drugs they were supposed to take! Discovery Fortunately, medical science says it is possible to protect against outbreaks of herpes, and retaining HIV. “Raising your glutathione levels – safely and naturally – is an effective way to ensure a strong body that is resistant to viral and microbial disease.” Dr Jimmy Gutman: Glutathione, Your Body’s Most Powerful Protector.
