Hepatitis B Treatment and Holistic Cures

Closed Eyes from LA, I would like to thank you for your very informative letter. I would like more info on all of the doses of EVCO, salvia, ligustrum and so on. I hate living with Hep B and have remained single for 3 years because I am embarrassed to share my virus with them. This is the first time I have ever responded to comments, but I believe you are on to something.I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you...ycats

Hey there, Curious on your current viral load. Do you think Chanca alone can help. I have taken salvia alone before and my load dropped from 10K to 2K in 6 months.

I was a hep b patient before I graduated in college as an engineer. Found out that im a hep b healthy carrier. But I cant go work abroad since I have hep b- I insist I am a healthy carrier but the doctor in clinic says it might turn to active stage. My world seems to go in black and my heart likes to burst. Why me, why does this kind of illness. Many questions still running on my mind even its 9 years ago. My doctor told me before I can only live for 20 years span. And im lucky if I can reach that 20 years. I panicked, I cant sleep, I cant eat as well. But I still continued life, now im still not cured. I'll try this herbal. I used to cut them of my house at povince at la union before, not knowing this herb might help me. Thanks for this comments that ive just read.. I'll try and plant some again im my vicinity. ''Phyllanthus niruri or Chanca Piedra''.. Life goes on and don't lose hope.. Our body might be affected but our heart and spirit to live a normal life must be on top of us.. Live without fear just visit your doctor twice a year after you take this plant.. Good luck to us friend out there. GOD STILL KNOWS BEST FOR US....

Merejem from La Union, you are going to be fine! You are going to live a long healthy life. Just taking the Chanca Piedra alone made my VL drop from over 10 Million down to 300 thousand in 2 months. I made it very strong and drank it 3 or 4 times a day. The Salvia/Lungustrum works too! Its easier to take as you can pop 4 pills, 4 times a day. I mostly use this now as I have grown tired of drinking so much tea! BUT the tea worked the most dramatic and with the fastest results! Selenium is also Very important as the HBV has a gene that is the same as humans in that it takes the enzyme your liver makes out of selenium to thrive in your liver, depleting you of selenium livers and glutathione levels. This is the reason why we are so tired or in a mind fog sometimes. I have read selenium alone reduced viral loads. Like I mentioned above it MUST be the natural plant based Selenium and NOT chilated selenomethionine!!!! The most I have ever taken was 800 micro grams a day (one pill=200 micrograms, four times a day). I cant stress this enough STAY AWAY FROM selenomethionine! Reading the back of the bottle, it should say high yeast selenium. Sometimes it just says food based Selenium. The High yeast, food based selenium is less commonly sold so be sure you go to a healthfood store and ask for the food form, usually sold as high yeast selenium.

Eating anti viral foods like shitake mushrooms and cooking with extra virgin coconut oil will make an impact as well. Vitamins are important to minimize oxidation stress on your body especially your liver. Most important is vitamin D. With liver disease comes vitamin D deficiency. Be sure you are getting higher levels of Vitamin D. The best way is sun exposure. If medical research suggests that with pharmaceutical drugs, elimination of HBV is possible, why not with natural substances as I mentioned above.

My last VL count was 253 in August. Can you believe it! My doctor did not know what to say. He originally said to stay away from alternative things as "they just don't work" and "that stuff is not regulated and who know what you are getting" I'm glad I did not listen. I tried to post this data at medhelp but everyone was so big pharma and anti herbal they chased me out of their forum. IF you have success with any of the above, you must post it places like this to help others. Pass on your good fourtune to help someone else heal rhemselves and eliminate the fear that comes along with HB. I have a feeling it will be 0! I'll update here! Sorry it took so long to comeback here!

Closed Eyes from Los Angeles,

Thank you for your post. Did you see a holistic/ ayurvedic doctor in Los Angeles? I have a small boy with chronic Hep B, (from his birth mother) and I am not sure of the correct dosages. He is only 4.

Thank you all so much for sharing your information.

Hi I have hepatitis b how long ive had it im unsure but I found out 2 1/2 years ago when I was pregnant. My viral load isnt that high about 5800 but its risen from about 2500. My doctor doesnt seemed worried about it at all just telling me to come in every 6 months to monitor it. I dont like this and believe that western medicine is all about pharmacueticals(?). I want to start taking care of myself before its too late can someone help me with herbs and things

Closed Eyes from LA: I just purchased chanca piedra in capsule form from raintree nutrition do you believe that is as affective as the tea? I notice alot of people use it for hep c and you are one of the few I have seen that use it for hep b. I dont want to listen to my dr anymore and there oh dont worry about it attitude. Im ready to take charge and find a way to become healthier than I already am. Any input I'm grateful for. Thankyou

Hi Jamila728... Chanca Piedra is one of the finest all-round herbs out there. It quickly reduces blood calcium levels, is a liver/kidney protective, reduces blood acidity, reduces high blood, reduces blood sugar, is an anti-inflammatory, reduces pain and is a strong anti-viral. Here is the full spec, with all the research, of exacty how useful Chanca Piedra is as a herb:

http://www.rain-tree.com/chanca.htm

Chanca Pidra(CP) is also more well-known as a successful anti-viral against Hep B. CP stops the Hep B virus by interferring with the Reverse Transcriptase enzyme during the Hep B virus's reproduction stage. So CP actually stops the Hep B virus reproducing itself.

Chanca Piedra is also currenty being researched for it's beneficial effects against HIV AIDs and Cancer.

CP is also completely safe to take in large doses -- no side-effects have ever been recorded even at large dosages. However, since CP is also a mild diuretic, it might be advisable to supplement with fulvic acid drops or sea salt or a good mineral supplement as well -- if the CP is taken for a long period.

If you have the CP capsules, then take at least 1000 mgs two or three times a day at mealtimes.

I would also optionally use the following protocol to further protect your liver:

Taken at mealtimes

Alpha Lipoic Acid -- 300 mgs twice a day(lunch and dinner)

Selenium -- 200 mcgs twice a day

Milk Thistle -- 1000 mgs twice a day

This simple protocol works to significantly increase Gutathione levels in the liver to help to fight the Hep C virus, remove toxins and to help raise up and strengthen your immune system to proper levels.

Mamac fromShermanOaks

The best start in my opinion is to feed the 4 year old good food. There are also anti-virals foods such as coconut milk and shitake & Maitake mushrooms. These foods have been shown to lower HB viral loads. The chanca piedra tea would then be my other recommendation. I cant recommend the Salvia Lingustrum for kids as I don't know ratio portions for kids and what is appropriate. Also, ensure the child is taking daily vitamins. That make a difference also. Not directly but ensure all the necessary nutrients are present for a growing child.

Jamila728 fromRochester, Ny

Wow considers yourself lucky with such a small VL. Drinking Chanca Piedra tea every day, made strong 3 times a day for 4 months and according to a report from a well Know Doctor Bloomburge in the 60's and you have a high change of "Clearing the virus" from the chronic state. I recommend on shitakii mushroom daily too to increase the changes of clearing HB.

Also if you bought the rain-tree capsules, the best way to really get the most out of them is to take one capsule and pour it into scalding hot water, let it sit for 5 min and drink all of it like a tea. You pull more of the active substance out into the water which makes its way into the bloodstream waay more than swallowing the dry pill.

Do this 3 times a day. That will make your bottle last much longer and you will get more Chanka Piedra internally. Do include anti-viral foods in your regimin and a daily vitamin with high levels of Vitamin D. People with liver issues like HB tend to convert less cholesterol in the liver and skin into vitamin D.

Close Eyelids Poen from Los Angeles, Ca

thankyou so much for your reply I will start putting the capsules in the tea to see if that helps as ive been just taking them in pill form. Also do you have any recommendations for a multi-vitamin? am I looking for like a womens one a day? And should I just eat shitake mushrooms or take a supplement and what kind of anti viral foods should I be eating? Thank you so very much

Hi everyone,

Here is an update on liver health I have personally found effective in the last few months.

Without any explanation from my doctors or evident on nay measurable tests, I still have liver pain. According to all prior tests, liver enzymes are low(normal range), I am healthy and there is not liver damage. I also cannot sleep on my right side like I could earlier in the month when eating the below mentioned foods. Measurable dna/rna remains extremely low although I am due for tests in the next month or two. FYI, I am not taking any supplements with the exception of a daily multivitamin and a separate vitamin D 1000 IU capsule. GNC MeggaMens formula is perfect as its selenium and vitamin D levels have recently (in the last 2 years) been increased as science continues to support medical reports of liver and immune health with high daily doses of each in recent findings.

After reading how beneficial watermelon and avocados are to the liver, I decided to incorporate them in to my daily diet. For the first time with out taking a supplement, the liver pain went away on its own! I ate one avocado a day and a plate full of watermellon a day, sometimes twice a day.

I recommend googling "watermelon liver health "and "Avocado liver protector" to read just how beneficial they both are. Usually with the articles are listed the scientific published medical journals that have researched the benefits, explain the why it does what it does and the substances isolated in the foods promoting the positive results.

Also extremely important is what I stopped eating. I reduced my intake of grains such as pasta, rice and breads. I also reduced my meat intake. I increased my raw vegetable intake like tons of spinach or other dark green leafy salads. Do not eat any foods containing canola oil. Read all about what canola oil is made from and how the plant seed, rape-seed is legally classified as an insecticide and how processing of this oil when heating, makes it less friendly to the body by sucking up vitamin e levels in the body.

If one grows tired of eating a lot of watermelon, you can juice it as well. I just got a juicer and juice it with a half of a whole lemon, peel and all. Lemon is also good at cleaning the liver!

It was amazing! To feel great and no liver pain without taking anything was awesome!

Today, I am not too proud to say, I fell off of that great diet and the liver pain returned. I recently have been eating salads again, making fresh carrot/apple/half a lemon juice but not eating any watermelon at all. I think the difference is the lack of watermelon. I'm going to buy one today and cut it up in peaces to eat over the next 5 days. Watermelon contains a potent amino acid extremely beneficial to the liver that aids in the removal of ammonia in the blood.

Just to be clear, a half a watermelon should be consumed in less than 2.5 days. That's how much one should eat or juice. The only downside for me in eating all that watermelon was peeing more frequently!

Be sure if you try the daily avocado, watermelon with the reduction of grains and meats, increased raw veggies let us know if you feel a difference.

Closedeyelidso, thanx for your Liver post! If I might reply, it appears something is depleting your glutathione enzyme. Avocato, being one of the riches preformed glutathione foods (next to Asparagus), is obviously giving that boost. The watermelon supports the already taxed kidneys. Since your conditions seems sorta permanent, it seems you might need to do a whole house and whole body detox.

Also, in my own case, I too was using diet/nutrition and alternative cleansing for liver health w/ marginal releif. Then I found out about Milk Thistle Seed. MTS immediately stabilized my liver, but it appears a little too late as I soon became completely disabled. Supplimental NAC is also an excelent Glutathione booster. Another food highly recomended by naturalpaths is Broccoli Sprout Extract as it boost both phases of Liver P-450 enzymes. Good luck on your health journey.

Thank you for your reply. I never had liver pain until I had a Hep A vaccination. Thats when everything started. The hep B had been there unknowingly for a long time with never a symptom. It was literally the next day after the shot when the pain started.

I don't think this will be permanent. My liver is completely healthy with a very small viral count and no damage or visible signs of HepB according to the doctors I have seen over the last 2 years over at UCLA.

I just got finished eating the watermelon : ) I read it was best to eat it before bed for the liver. I started a few days ago and noticed a big difference. I can lay on my side again but just for five min or so which still is a significant improvement from when I wrote the post.

I'm very sorry to hear about your condition. I have read so many stories about how people who were disabled or in need of a transplant, turn themselves around with dietary changes, life style changes and a variety of herbal/amino acids. Hope a turnaround is in store for you soon!

A wise woman once said to me: "I find that nothing will get past the doors of our minds we keep closed - or in other words, remain open and that anything is possible"

That's how I lowered the viral load from Millions to hundreds!

Good luck to you!

Hi everyone. over 8 years ago I diagnosed with chronic HBV, and I was taking Lamovadine since, until last year I found out my body do not respond to that anymore so I started VIREAD as well.

I will post my blood result in 2 months. I have no idea how it's gone help, but I am taking them along with my normal medicine.

I will appreciate any comment.

thank you all

Hi Majid... Although your herbal regimen against Hep B is a good one, I think it needs clarifying.

You are already using Chanca Piedra as well as Milk Thistle and Selenium which is great. But you would stand a much better chance against Hep B if you also took Alpha Lipoic Acid, Acetyl Cysteine and low dose naltrexone(LDN) every day as well. See this article about how a child was cured of Hep B using this therapy.

http://curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1265528

The proper nutrients and dosages you should be taking for this CAM therapy are:

Milk Thistle -- 1000 mgs at meal times twice a day

Selenium -- 200 mcg twice a day at mealtimes

Alpha Lipoic Acid -- 300 mgs twice a day at mealtimes.

Acetyl Cysteine -- 200 mgs twice a day at meals.

LDN -- one 3 mg tablet taken with water at 9:00 pm at night just before bed.

The nutrients act in the following way:

Chanca Piedra -- inhibits the HBV Reverse transcriptase virus stopping its reproductive capability.

CAM therapy -- Kills the virus and repairs the liver by antioxidant action.

LDN -- Increases endorphin levels which doubles or triples the white blood cell count in the body. It also seems to fix any auto-immune signalling problems between the immune system and the anti-bodies which attack the liver. Thus the anti-bodies revert to normal immune behaviour.

This herbal therapy will not only kill the HBV virus -- it also helps to repair the liver damage bacause it greatly raises the Glutathione levels in the liver. This helps to fight the virus, detox and repair the liver as well.

Unfortunately taking Viread as well as Lamivudine will not help you that much. Lamuvidine can damage the liver as well as raise viral levels when used with other anti-virals. Type "lamivudine warnings" in Google search to find out about this. It is also quite difficult to come off Lamivudine but this is up to you.

Hi Bill,

Thank you very much for your comment, my doctor told me to stop taking lamevdine 2 weeks ago. And about adjustment I will do that. I have to order online so it gone two weeks before I get anything.

Thanks again for comment.

Update:

I have been taking the Salvia Lingustrum with GNC's brand of olive leaf extract for a month now. I find their brand was the most effective olive leaf out of the many brands I have taken over the years. I now have no pain regardless of what I eat as some foods would cause some pain when passing through the liver. I can lay on my side again unlike just a month ago. I started taking them both for something totally unrelated, a sever tooth ache.

A filling came out a month ago which by the way, is good since it was amalgam. Around that time, that tooth was causing severe pain all over my right jaw and face! I am trying to avoid getting a root canal after reading the dangers in health associated with them.

Olive leaf extract worked well in the past with a toothache. I decided to combine it this time with the Ligusrtom formula and it worked within hours!! It works so well. I have been to a dentist and they gave me a prescription for antibiotics which I have not gotten filled as the infection is gone, so long as I keep taking these herbs. IT starts to come back after a day if I go too long without taking it- like 8 hours or more. I will take the antibiotics if this is not completely healed in another week or so.

I have been taking 8 Salvia/Ligustrum with 2 olive leafe, 3 times a day. Also included is about 8,000 IU of Vitamin D and one daily vitamin I take this time a year/flue season to avoid getting the flu.

I will continue with this through the end of February. After that point, I will go for another round of tests and post the results here.

I failed to mention a side effect when taking this amount, this frequently, on a daily basis. It increases libido.

Ok so I've been taking the chanca piedra capsules. I haven't been drinking it as a tea though :(. What kind of multi vitamin should I be taking along side this. What about maca root- I've heard some things about that. Is there anything specific I should be taking my viral load is really low.

As long as the mulitvitamin high levels of vitamin D and selenium - like the GNC brand usually in a box next to their registers, your good.

where the F**K can I get this salvia/ligustrum I have been searching and there is nothing! Please tell me!

Go to the website of traditional chinese medicine in Atlanta. You can order online.

Hi I'm new here. I was diagnosed with hep b last 2008 and never tried any medications since my doctor just gave me the option to treat myself or not. When I had my screening mg HBsAg w/ Titer (CMIA) shows about 228. 3. 170 and reactive. I read your reviews about chance piedra and curious if it would help me change my hepa status from positive to negative or it would help me eradicate this disease. Where can I buy it here in Cebu? And what's the best brand? Do I need to take any other supplements together with chanca piedra? What's the best thing to do? Thank you

Hi I'm one of the victum, so I wanna ask about Fig leaf is it works, thanks.

To Closed Eyes from Los Angeles, Ca... I am a carrier of Hep B from childhood, with viral loads of 3 million. My ALT is 50, and AST is 27. I was reading about Chanca Piedra and its possible chance of curing Hep B. I have a question in regards of obtaining Chanca Piedra. Are you consuming the exact from a plant form (how can I obtain this plant?) or can you purchase the manufactured form of it on the internet? What else can you recommend to me?

Since I first posted this in 09, I see Chanca Piedra more widely available on line and even in some higher end health food stores.

You should have no problem finding this herb online. You can rid HB with this tea. You will have to drink 3 tall glasses every day.

Use honey rather than sugar. Thats what I used and got excellent results. After 3 months see where your viral count is. It will be way better! Continue with the tea and keep your tooth bruch in bleach water after using then throw away after 30 days.

Dear Cl-ey from Los Angeles, Thank you for your response. I was able to obtain the dried form of Chanca. I'm not sure if it's benefical if I boiled/steep the plant 3 times before I throw away the Chanca plants and replace it with new ones.

Would you recommend any other supplements from your previous post that I should take with Chanca? Were you able to clear out/seroconverted the Hep B? What is your status on Hep B if you don't mind.

Thanks again.

Hi sir, how really effective is chanca piedra? Is it true that also vitamins e and c cud help and also silymarin? Is there anyone that can attest that he is cured by taking that herb? thanx

Going to try CP for 2 months and see what happens. I'll keep everyone updated. Been a chronic carrier my whole life. I'll see how well or not so well it does.

Hi am from philippines, my frend has an hepatitis b, is it true that chanca piedra can cure hepatitis b? pls reply if its true.

Hi Bebtotz... There is much research that seems to confirm Chanca Piedra's (Phyllanthus niruri) beneficial and healing action against Hep B:

Genus Phyllanthus for chronic hepatitis B virus infection: a systematic review

Observations of the efficacy of Phyllanthus spp. in treating patients with chronic Hepatitis B

Chanca Piedra inhibits the replication of the Hep B virus and also strongly protects the liver by protecting and fortifying the hepatocytes (worker liver cells) by its strong anti-oxidant action. That's why Chanca Piedra has also been found to be quite effective against the herpes virus(HSV-2) for the same reasons as above. Chanca piedra is also currently being researched for its beneficial effects against the AIDS virus. It has also been confirmed by research that Chanca piedra also works, with increased action, synergistically and beneficially for the liver when combined with the Milk Thistle herb.

I use Chanca Piedra regularly (combined together with Tinospora cordifolia -- called Makabuhay in Filipino) as a decoction to strengthen my liver and kidneys. Chanca piedra grows freely all over the lowlands of the Philippines as a weed and looks like this:

Chanca piedra in the Philippines

The docoction or tea form of Chanca Piedra seems to be the best and most active and useful form to supplement. So, if you can learn to make this aqueous decoction yourself by gathering the Chanca piedra in your own area in and around Bacolod City -- you can make it for free and it wont cost you one peso to make the decoction or tea yourself.

BHT works, according to quite a few people who have tried it! (Both Hep B and Hep C). --T.

The remedies given here focus on herbals and I've enjoyed reading them. One writer said the herbal did not work and asked for others suggestions. Well one known broad spectrum anti viral is colloidal silver. It should be used over a period of a year twice a day, a tablespoon at a time for a system wide infection.

I know for many viral and bacterial infection this simple formula is effective but have never heard if silver can impact VL of Hep B or Hep C.

I'm interested in the supplements regarding chronic hepa b. How can u help me?

Can you please eamil me at omyg56 (at) yahoo (dot) com. I have same hep B and like to talk to you on that please help.

I am hep b carirer, doctor prescribe me Viread and I started three days ago, I just find out there is another way of treatment even better and less exepensive. What should I do? even though doctor told me If I start this medication I have to contuniu the rest of my life!! Need help please.

Hi Yabyas...The only herb that will kill Hep B quickly is Chanca piedra(Phyllanthus niruri). Their is no suitable treatment against Hep B by modern medicine.This herb also works synergistically when taken with milk thistle(500 mgs twice a day with food).

Buy the CP powder form of Chanca piedra from a source like here.

Just boil some water, add 1/2 teaspoon of Chanca piedra powder and make a tea with it. Drink this tea outside mealtimes, two or 3 times a day. You can also take it with green tea for added taste and benefit. After taking this tea for about 3 month then have another check-up for your Hep B antigen count.

CAUTION: Although Chanca piedra is non-toxic it does have other effects on the body and these are -- hypoglycemic(lowers blood sugar), hypotensive(lowers blood pressure), hypolipidemic(lowers blood fat), diuretic. So if you are already taking other medications that have these same effects then please take note that CP tea may increase their effects.

Dear Chong from Philipines, There is the BHT treatment and it has worked well for many with hepatitis B and C. Here are latest recommendations from THE BHT CURES CHAT GROUP:

The BHT treatment is:

200mg to 350mg of BHT taken once or twice a day with water on an empty
stomach. The dosage varies for each person. Generally, the more you weigh the
more you need and the less you weigh the less you need or desire. Age is also a
factor. People around age 60 have a harder time tolerating higher dosages.

Supplements that work well with BHT are:

1. A generic multivitamin and mineral supplement.
2. Vitamin B12 in a dosage of 1mg [ milligrams ] which is the same as
1,000mcg [ micrograms ] per day.
3. Vitamin C in a daily dosage of 500mg to 1, 000mg per day.
4. One vitamin B complex pill per day.
5. The lipid monolaurin. Not sure of dosage.
6. The herb chanca piedra has helped some people. Not sure about dosage.
7. Sodium selenite in a dosage of 300mcg [ micrograms ] a day.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Supplements to avoid:

1. Milk thistle and it`s extracts. It reacts with BHT in a way that degrades
the treatment.
2. Vitamin E supplements. Yes you need some vitamin E. But vitamin E
supplements were proven to ENHANCE hepatitis C`s virons ability to replicate and
therefore vitamin E supplements should be avoided.
3. Any and all other supplements should be avoided until and unless I see
evidence they work well with the BHT treatment. These are MY recommendations.
...Oscar

Now I know Ted has also looked into BHT and has his own recommendations regarding BHT as a treatment for hepatitis B and C. There is the REMEDIES tab at the top of this page. So you can click onto B and then look for BHT and click unto that and read what different people have to say about BHT as a treatment for hepatitis B and C....Oscar

The key to dealing with Hep B, C, whatever is dealing with the flimsy lipid coating that the virus uses to hide in soft tissue. I recommend Monolaurin (3 tablespoons a day) bio-fibrin 2 capsules 3 times a day, and BHT 350Mg 2 to 3 times a day on empty stomach. The monolaurin will clear all parasites, bacteria, virus, and fungus while the BHT and bio-fibrin destroys the outside lipid skin that envelopes and protects the virus. Please go to or google inspired nutrition for research papers. This is nature's way of dealing with deadly viruses

Please guys respond. I was diagnosed of chronic Hepatitis B with vira load of 140200, liver tests says there are extensive areas of balloon degeneration, moderate infiltration of portal tracts by mononuclear inflammatory cells, some portal tracts show bile duct prolification and a few areas show mild lobular inflammation while some portal tracts appear fibrotic. I started using tenofovir and livolin almost 2 months now. What do you advice?

Hi Afen,

Missionaries, who often have little access to conventional medicine, have successfully used activated charcoal to treat Hepatitis. Here is a story of man who used charcoal to treat hepatits. (His story is about half way down the page.)

http://www.charcoalremedies.com/liver_disease

Basically, he took the charcoal internally and used the charcoal externally. You could try taking 1-2 t. Of activated charcoal powder in 8 oz. Of water twice a day. Take at least 2 hours after medication or 2 hours before, as it will affect prescription medication. If you are prone to constipation, be sure to get plenty of water. (And if you are prone to constipation, get that addressed as your body needs to be regularly eliminating toxins and not retaining them longer than necessary.)

You can make a charcoal poultice and put over your liver area each night. This is sort of a pain, but very effective. If you can get flaxseed to add to the charcoal, it makes it easier to work with and retain the water longer. (Charcoal must be wet to work. ) Mix equal parts of ground flax seed and charcoal. Add water and stir until it is jelly like in consistency. Spread over a paper towel. Cover with another paper towel. Put this poultice over your liver. Cover with plastic wrap. Use an ace bandage or something to attach it to your body. Make a new poultice each night. (You can make up a week's worth and keep the extras in the refrigerator.)

Dandelion tea is excellent for healing the liver. I knew someone who healed his Hepatitis C with Dandelion Tea alone. Start with 1 cup dandelion tea and work up to 3 cups a day. (Be sure to steep the tea for 15 minutes before straining.)

You say that your viral load is high. Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Coconut Oil is amazing for viruses. My son had mono once and nothing was working but then we started coconut oil he got well very quickly. Start with 1 t. morning and night and work up to 1 Tablespoon morning and night by the end of the week.

It is important to be drinking plenty of water to flush out toxins. (1/2 gallon over a day, herbal tea counts as part of this.)

Also, increasing your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables (organic, if possible) would be very helpful, too.

Teas, poultices, and dietary changes are a lot of work, but very effective!

Please let us know how you are doing and what worked for you!

~Mama to Many~

To Mama to Many re your post on use of charcoal;

Outstanding post and your reference to the web site "Charcoal Remedies.com" . Years ago I kept charcoal as one of my often used "nutrients" and occasionally took a few pills as a tablet, but the "Charcoal Remedies" site got me to realize the great uses of Charcoal as a poultice as well as an internal cleanser.

That web site had such good information and I so appreciate you sharing it. In fact, I stayed up for two hours tonight reading from it! The site has wonderful practical uses... Story after story and lots of MD's use of charcoal as well. I've always been fascinated by the use of "poultices" and now I'll include charcoal as one of the "go to" items in my array of practical helps.

Again, thank you. Dave

Nur, read up on Oscar's ideas about BHT for Hep B.

Nur: Essential oils happen to be excellent. Taking 4g/6x/day non defatted desiccated Argentinian liver with 5000iu d3/day is also very beneficial. So is making a smoothie 4x/day of 1/2 organic lemon, including the peel, 1oz organic baby leaves, some organic chili, 2g Hawaiian spirulina, 10g black chia seeds, and 1g chlorella. Search raw food videos for some good ideas.

Two things come to mind regarding Hepatitis and liver healing. Google Dr. Burt Berkson + liver disease and you can see how successful he has been using Alph Lipoic Acid and Low dose Naltrexone. Generally, Dr. Berkson insists that the ALA be European sourced (the R-ALA), however, a woman who has been following his protocol for years with very good results, reports that her local practitioner asked her to try the sustained release ALA by J----w, and her numbers improved even more than with the European ALA. Secondly, a regular poster on this site, Oscar, has developed his own very successful protocol that has helped countless people reduce their viral load by taking BHT capsules. If you look under the Ailments tab, hepatitis B, you can read the posts on this site. I imagine it is also under the Remedies tab, under BHT. Although these treatments are not exactly "natural, " they will both heal your liver. Best wishes.

Question for people with Hepatitis B and liver problems ... In practice, how does using a undenatured whey protein e.g. immunopro compare to using milk thistle. What about acetyl-glutathione?

Dear Muna [ Lagos, Nigeria ], You can try to buy the " LifeLink " brand here:

http://www.ilifelink.com/bht_butylated_hydroxytoluene_250_mg_x_500_capsules.html

If this company does not sell to Nigeria you can also try finding a retailer who does at " Ebay " or " Amazon ". I know there is a problem for many Nigerians in finding a retailer of BHT that sells to Nigeria.

This is a problem you are going to have to solve for yourself.

Also: BHT is classified as a " food preservative " and not a " drug "....Oscar
