vitamins debunk anti-HIV drug propaganda

[Guest guest]

The following result may be due to the fact that half of

AIDS is caused by factors such as bad water and malaria

and malnutrition, while half might be caused by under

nourishment and resulting cortisol secretion which

suppresses immunity.

Contrast what you know of the effects of anti-HIV drugs

on the immune system with the quoted 50% effectiveness

of vitamins being characterized as " slightly slower

progression...the effect is not dramatic " . If 50% is slight

and not dramatic, might we not expect more than " 50% "

success from anti HIV drugs? And what do they actually

deliver? Might a discrepancy here prove media bias?

Multivitamins Slow AIDS Effect in Study

People infected with the HIV virus who take multivitamins

every day have a slightly slower progression of their illness,

researchers are reporting today.

The effect is not dramatic but probably enough to warrant

a recommendation.

Supplements minus vitamin A[makes you wonder where

they found multivitamins " minus vitamin A " , did they

make them up special to prevent A from increasing the

" slight not dramatic 50% " ? reduced risk of progressing

to [even!] moderate AIDS or of developing oral ulcers[herpes]

or painful swallowing[thrush?] by 50%[= " slight not dramatic " ?!].
