Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 HIV infects a cell, and implants its genetic material inside the nucleus. Nothing happens until the cell becomes " active " . This can be triggered by a disease, or by the general activity level or " zestiness " of the cell. At that point, what would have been a healthy cell cleaning you up becomes a nightmare. The virus's genetic material becomes copied many many times, releasing new virus through the walls of the host cell. Now, where there was one virus, there are dozens, or hundreds of them. It's like an incubator that only turns on when it needs to destroy a germ, it actually hatches more of them! This process kills the host cell, which bursts open, spewing viral particles into the surrounding area. Some of these particles and chemicals are used in diagnostic tests to determine how active the virus is. Now...enter electricity. The host cell may activate just from the electricity, and become very prolific and high metabolism. But, it accelerates its own demise. The faster it does its cell things, the more toxins and viral components are developed and the faster the thing explodes. This can mean toxic dieoffs to the person, flulike symptoms, etc from the release of these toxins. That's why we say drink water, flush it out. But, the cool thing is, we have limited how many of the complete viruses got produced. The fast activity means the cell burst before the virus finishes making whole copies. Junk results instead of virus that can reinfect! The remaining host cells, the ones that have not been infected, get busy, too. They go around doing their thing and attacking various germs, opportunistic infections, etc. So, this is win-win, even though the perplexed doctor will scratch his/her head wondering why this patient's Tcell count is low, but they look and feel so much better. In time that will change, and the T-cell count will improve if this is continued. All this would lead you to think that the virus levels in the body would actually go down faster than in the petri dish experiment. That's because you are electrifying the cells as well as the virus. In the einstein college study, only the virus was electrified, then allowed to try to infect the cells. The cells were electrified, but not after having become infected. The whole system is unique...what other system works better in the body than in the test tube? I simply can't think of anything like that! bG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
