Hepatitis C

What supplements are helpful for Hepatitis C?

Studies (3) have shown that lipoic acid at 200 mg 3 times/day and selenium 200-600 mcg/day appear to be an effective combination. In my opinion, the best price for high quality lipoic acid can be found here, and high quality selenium can be found here. I also like Puritan Pride's special promotions, which they hold regularly.

Natural Hepatitis C Treatment

1. Fortunately, hepatitis C seems to cause problems later, rather than sooner. This gives a person infected plenty of time to optimize their immune system. The first step toward this goal is usually implementing a healing diet.
   
2. Once a proper diet is being followed, it's critical to minimize other toxic influences to the immune system. Amalgam fillings are typically present and ideally should be removed along with a comprehensive mercury detoxification program. Eliminating toxins from the body, in particular pesticides through sauna detoxification is also important.
   
3. Is Hepatitis C Contagious? Hepatitis C Transmission today is primarily through needle sharing. Prior to effective screening was implemented in 1990-92 blood transfusion was a major source of this infection for Hep C as was the giving of clotting factors. With Hepatitis C, any blood-to-blood contact can be a risk be it tattoos, sharing straws, razors, tooth brushes, finger nail clippers. The Hepatitis C Virus is not spread through casual contact such as hugging, kissing or sharing food or water.
   
4. Conventional Hepatitis C Treatment Conventional treatment for Hepatitis C normally involves repeated injections of interferon, often coupled with ribavarin, to stop the virus from reproducing. At best, the conventional treatment for Hepatitis C is effective in no more than 30-40% of infected people. But the side effects of the conventional Hepatitis C treatment are frequently so unbearable that many victims of the disease quit in despair and search for alternative therapies.
