Dialysis To Treat AIDS

August 22nd, 2007

As part of my mission to discuss and inform folks about issues pressing the Black community, part of my focus is on health. One particular point of passion with in health is the AIDS Epidemic. So I will periodically be bringing you information on Aids treatment, prevention, funding, ect.

I’ve recently learned of an exciting treatment possibility in HemoDialysis Aids Treatment

I heard about this from my chiropractor when talking about an Aids article in a magazine in his office. He claimed that he read some time back about dialysis been used to “cure” Aids in Norway (or somewhere in that part of the world) going back 10 years ago.

Well ,I didn’t find evidence that it cures Aids, nor that the process has been around for 10 years, but that PDF report shows what seems to be a very strong treatment possiblity.

Aids works by the HIV virus entering your T Cells (which are your immune system’s cells) feeding off the cell to replicate itself multiple times, destroying that cell; then moving on to the next cell until your immune system is compromised and you can no longer fight off infection.

The human body’s inability to clear the Aids virus from the system, unlike with other viruses is what makes Aids so much more destructive.

Essentially, this dialysis process clears much of the virus from the system, greatly reducing cell infection and maintaining patient health. Combined with other treatments in the future, this potentially can give the body the chance to defeat the virus.

Have you ever heard about this?

I should have some information soon on a new microbicide jel that may fight infection.

For those wanting an elementary but more elaborate explanation of what Aids is and how it works, you can read here About HIV.

And as always when bringing forth info on this subject, I strongly encourage everyone to watch the powerful, very interesting and informative PBS/Frontline documentary “The Age of Aids”. You can see it online here. The clips are broken up into 10 to 15 minute sections, so you can easily watch it a little a time.
