Re: Indications of yin and yang liver conditions

[Guest guest]

Chaparral can cause hepatitis, and has been implicated in more than

one death from liver failure. It should be avoided, especially by

anyone with a preexisting liver disease.

>triple anti-oxidant therapy / regimen?

I've been doing it for about a year but I've never been tested so I can't

tell you how it's affected me. I'm taking just in case I'm sicker than I

think. I've taken all sorts of things, been on all sort of diets, have

consumed alcohol and have abstained. While I'm currently living a pretty

clean life and supposedly taking all the right supplements, I never feel any

difference one way or the other. How's that for an endorsement?

I am doing the same type of alternative as you Monte and can definitely say

I feel good. Viral load lower and LFTs excellent.

[Guest guest]

Ginmaree,,

what type of alternative treatment are you taking? Im

getting ready to start the interferon/ribavirin and

hopefully I can incorporate some homeopathy as well,,

thanks,, jackie

Dear Jin,

How long did it take Dr. Zhangs herbs to work for you in terms of lowering

enzymes?
