Hepatitis C Treatment and Cure

Berkson Therapy
Posted by Dan's Sister (Playa Vista, Ca) on 10/13/2012

My Brother was diagnosed with Hep C and Stage IV Cirrhosis. He contracted HepC when he was 18 from blood transfusions from a motorcycle accident. 40 years later he became quite ill even had an esophogeal bleed which almost killed him. Drs at Kaiser said to go home and wait until he qualified for a liver transplant. Nothing they could do for him since he had the bleed out. We searched the internet and found Dr. Burt Berkson in Las Cruces NM.

We went there for 2 weeks, he was so ill he couldn't even roll his own suitcase to the hotel. After 1 week of treatment, he could go up stairs again, he didn't feel like he had the flu, could walk around and could sleep again. When he finished the treatments after two weeks, we flew back to Los Angeles, my husband picked us up at the airport and couldn't believe his eyes when he saw my brother. Dr. Berkson treats many auto immune diseases. We saw miracles in the 2 weeks we were there with several other people. This treatment is not expensive and works. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't experience it with my brother. Our friend is now being treated for his MS and having amazing results as well. Dr. Berkson uses ALA, Silymarin, Selenium IV's with a B complex injection. He also uses a low dose Naltrexone at night. Dan's MRI after treatment showed diminishing of the lesion on his liver and all of his lab work is moving in the right direction. The Dr at Kaiser asked what he was doing, because he was surprised at how his lab work turned out. We never told him because we thought he would be offended or try to convince us not to go back in 6 months for a "top up".

Berkson looks at your lab work (you can fax it) and tells you if he thinks he can help you or not free of charge. People were there from all over the world telling us about their success with this treatment.

If one is taking selenium this concern is not as critical. Selenium easily binds with mercury keeping it from settling in organs. This same principle is true when it comes to mercury content in many fish. Many of the fish that have slightly high mercury content also have ample amounts of selenium making it highly unlikely that one will absorb mercury and become toxic.

I contracted hep-c in January 1969... I had 4 eye operations in the late 1980's and early 1990's... I also had a deviated septum and rotator cuff operation in the mid 1990's...

A dentist from Tufts Dental in Boston gave me a pain medication for a root canal in 2003 which turned out to be the WRONG medication and I had anaphyectic shock and had to be taken to the hospital in the middle of the night...

They talked me into having a physical at the hospital which I hadn't had since I was born... They found out that I had hep-c and my liver enzymes were AST-33... ALT... 49... One was normal and the nother elevated by points... WHICH IS NOTHING! My PCP (Dr. Marilyn Kovnat) told me when I walked into the office for the results, "You don't have to DIE... You can take interferon. " It was like getting hit with a sledgehammer...

She also said I "NEEDED a liver biopsy. " I was very uninformed with regard to any of this includinfg what was hepatitis c... I had the liver biopsy and walked bent over for 6 months and my enzymes went close to 400 for both of them... I still have both enzymes over 100..

The point being to this mini story that my immune system was keeping my hepatitis c at bay... For 34 years... I had the biopsy and it awoke the virus and it has been hell since... The bottom line for anyone is DO NOT HAVE A BIOPSY... You can have a fibrosure test or a fibroscan test which is the state of the art in Europe and is NON_INVASIVE... It isn't a big money and because of this and (of course) is not recommended or approved in this country... BUT you can get on as I did in Beth Isreal Hospital in Boston...

Good luck and don't let the Dr's run your life... They're LESS ethical than used car sales men...

Finally my PCP talked me into going on Atenolol because my father had a history of high blood pressure... After 20 minutes of discussion/disagreements I agreed to go on it... Bear in mind I never ONCE registered high blood pressure... 9 months later I had to be wheelchaired into a hospital for a 4 1/2 heart operation for ventricular tachycardia... I had a Radio Frequency Catheter Ablation operation... Beware of Dr's advice...

I contracted Hep C around 1984. A friend mentioned an amino acid called "Alpha-Lipoic Acid" to lower my enzymes levels AST and ALT count. He showed me in a book that had a list of elements that were taken out of our school of medicine in 1950's. I have had a level of roughly 20 AST and 35 ALT ever since. My liver doctor about 10 years ago was completly surprised by the levels, and asked what I was doing to get these levels. I mentioned "Alpha-Lipoic Acid" and he did not recognize it. It is sad when we are controlling what doctors should and shouldn't know. Hope this helps those reading.

Hello Lorenzo,

Thanks for posting about colloidal silver used to treat Hep C. I've never personally known of cs usage for Hep although I've posted a number of times asking if anyone had tried it.

Can you give specifics? I mean load numbers.

There is a well known and very smart poster on EC who often talks of BHT usage with great success. He is always asking for specifics on successes.

So to add to the remedy possibilities, what were your numbers before and after. Hopefully Oscar will weigh in and ask you some questions. He is the poster I referred to.

This is my first post as I found this website about one month ago. I have read through all the posts on BHT and have decided to give it a try.

I will give a little history as I plan on commenting on my treatment with BHT as necessary

I was diagnosed with Hep C back in 1999, type 1A, I think I contracted the virus from blood transfusions in 1984 as a result of an auto accident.

I have never had any treatment as of yet. My first test back in 1999 resulted in a viral load of about 2 million and as of this past April 2012 is now over 21 million. My liver function tests are slightly elevated but nothing to be overly concerned about. My latest ultrasound (also April 2012) was normal.

However, I am usually exhausted by mid afternoon.

I took my first 350mg dose this morning on an empty stomach as suggested and have taken 9,000mg of Vit C over the past 2 months, which I have not decided if I will continue to take while on the BHT. Since taking the Vit C I have noticed an improvment in my energy levels.

I will post further updates as my condition changes, dosages change etc....

thanks for all the good information on this site.

Hello Oscar, I've had Hep C for at least 15 years and did the pegasis and Rib treatment in 2000 to no good result. I have cirrosis now and got to do something. I really appreciate you'all taking your time to report your results and findings. I ordered the BHT at 350mg. per capsule and plan to get going on it asap (I have to do something). I will faithfully tell all about my results especially since you were good enough to share and enlighten. I've been researching obviously and read the pros and cons however this finding is a bit scary.

Please read the following: A Kuwait study found no evidence of carcinogenity but also that BHT isn't much fun for the liver: "BHT resulted in a significant increase in liver weight. The liver cells presented gradual vacuolization, cytoplasmic disintegration, "moth-eaten" appearance, ballooning degeneration, hepatocellular necrosis. " A Swedish study also found that BHT damages the liver. Oscar what is your opinion of this? Thanks, Dave

I do not know if my last post posted this is a hard site to minipulate. In any event. I just got my numbers from my Doctors nurse whom I will see in two days. One year ago my viral load was 2110000, I took a test a month ago the lab notifies my Doctor I need to go and get a retest because something happened and they did not have enough plazma to re test, so last week I retested. The new numbers I got from my Doctors nurse today are: 837.930 .. I think that means my viral load is almost non detectable but I do not know for sure until I go friday and ask my Doctor what the numbers mean.

My email is connected anyone wishing to verify with me, be my guest.

BHT works, I hear many skeptics ask for proof, well I am that proof feel free to contact me or post your email and I will contact you. So much being stolen, pharmchem hushing this with doctors and healthcare people. Some ask what are you doing to your body taking BHT. Well, I'll ask them what is interferon and these new drugs doing?. BHT no side effects, zero, zip, nada. 2 caps a day with a glass of water.

Dear A. From Boston, As I have suggested many times now: If and/or when adverse effects are experienced with these BHT treatments LOWER the dosage of BHT. I have also suggested taking BHT in dosages of no more than 350mg at any one time. That these dosages should be taken seperately. I also have found good reasons why BHT should be taken with a fruit juice as opposed to water. Grape juice is a good one as is cranberry juice. This is because glucose is a an important ingrediant involved in the metabolism of BHT as discussed in the different toxicology reports.

So lower your dosage, at least for now. Always split the dose if taking more than 350mg per day. And take the BHT with some fruit juice such as grape juice or cranberry juice. Try doing that and let this forum know if that resolves any problems you are having with the BHT treatments. Some better answers are hopefully becoming apparent for those trying the BHT treatment.

Hep C here. I found out in Dec. my alt/ast were 171/120. My iron was 382. Test from yesterday came back normal.

I did Ted's 4 day aspirin and lysine while waiting on the bht. Also milk thistle.

I just read there is sometimes fluctuation to normal. What do think about that? I am still tired but I feel a great psychological lift. This is good news isn't it?

Hello Javena from Pakistan. Weight, fat content of a person`s body, and age are all factors to consider when trying to come up with the right dose of BHT. Generally: The more a person weighs and the higher fat content of that weight the more BHT a person requires. And the people 50 or more years old tend to have more of a problem tolerating BHT.

Many people who weigh around 175 pounds do very well on one dose of 250mg of BHT taken twice a day. In the morning and at night. BHT should be taken on an empty stomach with a gulp of water.

People who weigh 125 pounds or less often do best with one dose only of 250mg of BHT per day. People who weigh 200 pounds or more often do well with one 350mg of BHT taken twice a day. These are rough guidelines only. Each person has to find a dose they are comfortable with.

Also we recently had a man who weighs 180 pounds and has the HCV type 1a infection. He used only one 250mg capsule of BHT per day and reduced his viral load from 10 million to 1 million in 3 short weeks

I recommend anyone first starting the BHT treatment use no more than one 250mg capsule of BHT per day for the first week. If adverse effects are experienced lower the amount of BHT used....Oscar

Quick follow up to Javena from Pakistan: The BHT treatment does NOT work well with other treatments. Moderate use of the B vitamins and vitamin C are OK to use. Also, that nose bleeding is likely caused by low blood platelets. Avoid using large amounts of herbs and spices. Turmeric should be avoided by people with low blood platelets. The BHT treatment really does work best if you keep it simple. Also, boil any water you drink to sterilize it....Oscar

I dosed myself with 200mg to 300mg per day with water on an empty stomach, in the morning before breakfast. I went from a definite positive using the hep-C RNA test to a definite negative using this same test in about 1 month and have never had any problem with hepatitis-C ever again. I continued to take it and still do as a prophylactic for a host of viral diseases I don`t want to get. What BHT can treat it can prevent. I never had any problem with any side effects. I cannot say enough about this remarkable compound. It works and fast. BHT is an acronym for butylated hydroxytoluene.

If you want to research it the information is out there on the web. The people discovered BHT`s ability to treat viruses with lipid containing coatings: Person, Snipes, Keith, and Cupp. Their original article appeared in the Journal: SCIENCE volume 188 in 1975. There's my answer to treating hepatitis-C. It is worth mentioning that the AID`s virus has a similar structure, lipid containing envelope.... Oscar

Dear Oscar from Syracuse, New York,

Thanks for your posting on BHT. I have been treating hcv since 2002. I started with interferon injection which gave me a serious side effect. Since then, I have tried a lot of other products without any luck. The test I had in March 2011 showed that the viral count had increased to 278,000 IU. The hcv has developed resistance to a lot of treatments.

When I read your posting two days ago, I jumped at it and, I wish to try it. But my concern is the fear that the hcv might be resistance to BHT too. My questions: Did you swallow the capsule or did you open the capsule and pour the powder into the water and drank it? Did you drink anything with it? Some websites suggest that it could be taken with lysine and vit. C. What do you advise? I want to take it exactly as you took yours, may be I could also have the same result you had. Is there any food I should avoid? After taking the BHT, how many hours lapsed before taking your breakfast? Could you please reply me quickly? I AM BROKEN HEARTED BECAUSE OF HCV. Thanks.

BROKEN HEARTED.

I have read your positive views but also negative views on another website... (copied below)... to be honest I'm confused.

Directions:

Precautions:
Because of conflicting results, no one really knows what the cancer risk - if any - is from BHT. The possibility should not be ignored; anyone who uses BHT or any synthetic chemical should consider there may be consequences yet unknown from the use of non-naturally occuring chemicals.

  • Most BHT users recommend that no one should take more than 2gm per day, some saying 1gm is the limit. It should probably also not be taken on an empty stomach.

  • Avoid use in hepatitis or other liver problems.

  • BHT is fat-soluble, so thin people may need less. Furthermore, persons on low-fat diets may be more susceptible to side-effects.

  • BHT can interfere with blood clotting, so it might be a special risk for persons with hemophilia or other clotting problems.

  • Doses of BHT should start small and gradually increase. It is probably not harmful to stop abruptly, however, because BHT stays in the body for several weeks.

  • A few people are chemically sensitive to BHT.

  • Alcohol should be avoided for at least several hours after taking BHT. Alcohol may have a stronger effect than usual, so be especially careful about driving.

  • BHT can interact with other drugs. It can either increase or decrease their effects

  • Can anyone provide help?

    Dear CM from Wilmington, This is Oscar. We have had some instructive feedback in this forum and I have some from other forums also. For a person your weight, about 200 pounds, I think you should be taking at least one 350mg capsule of BHT twice a day on an empty stomach with a gulp of water to wash the capsule down. Do NOT mix the BHT with any oil at the time it is taken. Wait at least one hour for the BHT to be digested and metabolized before eating any food for best results.

    Also, some people have discussed side effects including stomach discomfort and dizzyness. Most people have NO side effects. But, some do. An easy sensitivity test can be done. Open up a capsule and pour the contents on to a small dish. Lick your finger and daub it on the crystals and lick that finger. Wait an hour and see if you have any side effect. If you DO, don`t get discouraged. Some simple ramping up will resolve this issue. Simply lick 2 daubs the next day. You will get used to it in almost all cases. For most people this is not an issue. A very many people take BHT on a daily basis for conditions including any of the herpes viruses for example.

    The brand I have been using for over 10 years now is that sold by: Vitamin Research Products, a trusted name in supplements and THEY have been making and selling BHT for a long time now. Once you reach that: NO VIRAL LOAD DETECTED result you still need to keep taking the BHT for at least 2 years. I still take it because it is a proven average lifespan extender and keeps you appearing younger. The reason you need to keep taking the BHT is because even when no virus is detected in your blood your liver will still be full of infected cells. Because the liver completely renews itself in about one year, if you keep your blood free of the viral particles, eventually a true cure does occur.

    I never took interferon or anything other than BHT to treat my Hepatitis-C infection and I had HCV with a failing liver. Give the BHT a chance by itself. And do this for me: Report any and all liver function test results along with any viral load count tests. This BHT [ butylated hydroxytoluene ] stuff really does work. Read what fatcha brute has to say about that here: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?p=6967512


    BHT
    Posted by Oscar (Syracuse, New York) on 11/23/2011

    Dear Cm from Wilmington, This is Oscar and I will answer your questions as best I can. Please do note that because of the feedback from Dr. W and Victoria I do now believe one 350mg capsule taken TWICE a day is best for most adults. Most people tolerarate that dosage well. Some do not. If you are one of those that experience significant side effects do NOT get discouraged. Usually some simple ramping up of the dosage resolves this issue. Also, even at smaller dosages the BHT will work. It will take a bit longer is all. I had a very infected liver, to the point of substantial liver failure. I got well using only 200mg of BHT per day.

    Now both Dr. W and fatcha brute were using larger dosages. Fatcha brute was using two 350mg capsules per day. Dr. W was using larger dosages initially. And Victoria was using the smaller dosage [ 200mg to 250mg per day ].

    Victoria achieved impressive results in about 2 months at that dosage. Her viral load went down by two thirds of what it had been and her liver function tests returned to normal or healthy readings in about 2 months. That is an impressive improvement. So, if you can tolerate the 350mg dose taken TWICE a day, GREAT. If not, do not get discouraged. The smaller dosages work, they just take longer.

    Compared to the prescibed medicines the BHT works much quicker and is much safer. In fact there is substantial evidence that BHT taken in the dosages we are discussing is in fact good for you. That PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article shows an average lifespan increase of between 22% and 31% for mice dosed with BHT for their entire lifetimes. I know of NO other compound that can claim that. NONE, period. So, I want you to stop being afraid, you are going to get through this and be truly cured of hepatitis C using the BHT. I was very sick and so was January. We both felt well within a few weeks. Our livers were functioning well again though still infected with HCV. To achieve a true cure does take at least 2 years of daily dosing with the BHT. The BHT can keep the blood free of HCV viral particles. It can NOT uninfect a living liver cell. NOTHING out there can do that. BUT, every cell that makes up a person`s liver is a new cell in about one year. So, by keeping the blood free of intact viral particles, eventually a true cure is achieved. That is why you and so many others using the interferon and ribaviron treatments relapse. This is not going to happen with the BHT if you continue taking it even after you get those: NO VIRUS DETECTED RESULTS.

    This BHT has proven itself to be very effective in treating lipid enveloped viruses. Hepatitis C is very much a lipid enveloped virus. I had both hepatitis C and B. I now test negative for both those viruses using any test given including the antibodies and antigens tests. It truly is as if I had NEVER been infected. And I most definately was so infected. I had been tested and retested in 1997 and was positive. I had myself retested about a year later using the antibodies and antigens tests and still tested POSITIVE. I was retested in 2006 and now test NEGATIVE using the antibodies and antigens tests.

    I am not asking you to have faith in me. I am telling you this BHT really does work because of the results of all those tests and the fact that it has worked and IS working for those others I have mentioned and linked to their statements. I do not know how long it will take for you to feel better. From the feedback I have gotten that should happen within 2 months. As far as getting tested goes: myself and others showed testable improvement in 1 month. For Dr. W it took 2 months. The same is true for Victoria. If you can get tested in one month, why not do so ? And again in another month if there is any doubt the BHT is working after the first test.

    Now I want you to report whatever those test results are along with the dosage of BHT used and the genotype of HCV being treated. Do that for me. Let me also know of any side effects and I will do my best to help you. Again, most people have no side effects with the dosages I have discussed. I wish you well and to be well, ...Oscar

    Good hearing from you CM from Wilmington, This BHT really does work, not just sort of, as a treatment for hepatitis C. It may take longer for some than others, but it works. From the feedback I have been getting: for some it is a matter of a few weeks, and for some a few months. But people are reporting an eventual NO VIRUS DETECTED test result.

    I need to keep repeating myself about this: That NO VIRUS DETECTED result does NOT mean you are cured of hepatitis C. It means there was no virus detected in your blood at the time the blood was drawn and tested. Without any doubt, your liver will still be full of infected cells that will burst and infect other liver cells if you stop taking the BHT. Simply keep taking the BHT. Because the liver completely renews itself about every year, if you keep your blood free of HCV virus particles, eventually a true cure is achieved with the use of BHT. I have achieved a true CURE for myself using BHT. I don`t know how many years that took. I would think at least two years of daily dosing with BHT. But, so what? As that PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article illustrates, there is very substantial evidence that BHT is good for you. An average lifespan increase of between 22% and 31% for mice dosed with BHT over their entire lifetimes compared to mice that were not dosed with the BHT is quite something. I know of NO other compound that can make such a claim, NONE.

    This BHT really does work, ...Oscar

It's a natural thyroid from New Zealand cows and I only take one a day. I feel so much better as it contains both T3 and T4. You don't even need a prescription. Thanks EC for all the great info!

    Posted by Oscar (Syracuse, New York) on 12/14/2011

    Dear Cm from Charleston, That is a very good question: How long should I wait to be tested after starting the use of BHT as a treatment for hepatitis C? Ideally you should be tested as soon as possible to establish a base line or starting point before you start the treatment. I do understand that this is not always easy to get done. It costs money for these tests and somebody has to pay for it.

    The reason for establishing this baseline is to allow for accurate tracking of your progress as in: liver function test results and viral load count test results. Without a baseline there is no way of answering those questions.

    Now, I very much understand that for many people the cost of these tests is an important consideration.

    For the sake of this discussion I will assume you wish to spend as little money as possible on testing. With that in mind those liver function tests are not that expensive and should be done as soon as possible. If you can afford it those viral load count tests should also be done as soon as possible. You want to know if this treatment is working or not.

    From the feedback available: Many people have shown dramatic improvement in a few weeks, for others a few months. I will assume you want to see NORMAL LIVER FUNCTION and NO VIRUS detected results the first time tested. If that is your goal I would suggest being tested after 2 months of treatment with the BHT taken as I have discussed [ one 350mg capsule of BHT taken TWICE a day with a gulp of water on an empty stomach ]. This is assuming you experience no adverse side effects at that dosage. Every person is different and I can not say what is best for every person.

    As a general rule: The sicker you are with hepatitis C the more carefully you have to monitor by testing what is happening with your liver. And each individual`s financial situation is an important factor. For all those reasons each person has to decide for themselves about such testing. If you can afford it, the more carefully, often this testing is done the better. I was tested once a week, but this was paid for by the VA because it was a service connected condition. My results were dramatic and I was testing: NO VIRUS DETECTED and liver fuction NORMAL in about one month using the BHT and nothing else....Oscar

    I, Oscar, feel a need to make people aware of the crap I have been dealing with for many years now regarding the use of BHT to treat hepatitis C. I have been banned from at least 4 forums for discussing this topic. There are many billions of dollars at stake here if I am right about just how effective BHT is. Not for me, I have never and will never accept any money for my efforts.

    I am not being paranoid. Please do carefully follow this discussion I had about this topic in another forum with this link: http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Hepatitis-C/My-mother-has-Hep-c-and-latent-TB/show/1559469

    You will find that along with all the ridicule heaped upon me this statement by shakar: " My dad started BHT. Within 2 weeks, the viral load is down 50%. I will keep everyone posted about next pcr test. " That thread or conversation was closed by the moderator. Please read the entire thread to get some notion of what I have been up against.

    shakar`s statement agrees with the results being achieved by those members of this forum who are giving the BHT treatment a try as a treatment for hepatitis C.

    So what you may ask. This is what: This BHT really does work as a treatment for hepatitis C. The drug companies and the " SICK CARE " industry will lose many billions of dollars if this extremely inexpensive treatment becomes common knowledge. So, this is the sort of crap I am fighting and I do need forum members trying this treatment to report in with your test results.

    Do read that thread and you will begin to understand why so very few people even know about this treatment after more than 14 years of effort by me. And fatcha brute`s statement sums up the reason`s why here: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?p=6967512Ã

    With those forum members who are giving the BHT treatment a try for hepatitis C`s feedback we can win this battle here in this forum. Most Sincerely, ...Oscar

    Oscar, I do find it strange how some people are so bullheaded and become buttheads in this area. I met with the same reaction when discussing Gerson therapy which has helped people I knew. I had nurses yelling at me saying it's all bs and just to rip people off. How is it a sham when Gerson is simply saying we need to get back to real food grown without chemicals (one of his points)? It is true I had various ills and physcian told me diet doesn't matter and made me some prescriptions that either didn't help or I didn't like the side effects. When I kicked the junk food diet, many of these issues resolved (like tinnitus, non-productive coughing fits, acid reflux, etc). They aren't trained too much in nutrition and so many people are just brainwashed and stubborn about it. Gerson M. D. Presented proof but he wrote about how it was rejected. We live in a business medical model where studies can be bought. When there's so much money and control in big pharma, you're not going to find the studies supporting things that would get in the way of their interests. Here is a video of a man who worked for Eli Lily showing why he left. Yes he is trying to do his own thing with a book he is promoting on nutrition but I think it's interesting when he gives an idea what big pharma wanted for him. SHOCKING in a way!

    The best thing we can do - is for those with hepatitis that find there way here - to give the BHT a try and report back if/when the viral load goes down, stays down and after a year or two if/when the hepatitis is no longer detected. People keep medical records. People have been kind of programmed to fear and not trust alternative things; but for the explorers here who will try and post feedback... Then others will try if they start seeing others succeed in healing too.

    It is difficult because many people also want instant gratification and it's hard to stay disciplined for one or two years on any regimen. If it helped you Oscar and I've read a few other stories here, then keep on sharing and helping people. If I had hepatitis and there was no cure, I am the type that would try it; because I don't trust mainstream as being always the best answer. I just see a lot of wrong things and corruption. But I can understand the pessimism and distrust of others because we also live in a world where people sell snake oil. People see beautiful ads and buy the latest diet pill or this or that and find it didn't work and they are out money. It's too bad because then people become cynical and as protection won't accept new info out of the box even if it might be true.

    I have been having Autohemotherapy to treat my Hep C and I am astonished as to how well I feel. I have not felt this well in many years. My energy went off the charts at first and has now become more normal. No more fatigue!! My Naturopathic Dr. prescribed 8 treatments, twice a week. I have one more treatment left and then he suggested an 'as and when needed'. Worked well for me.


    Chlorophyll, Dietary Changes
    Posted by Colleen (Denver, Colorado) on 12/13/2009

    one more very crucial factor in my healing my hep-c that I forgot to mention in my previous e-mail (chlorophyll tons of salads)

    nothing else worked for me until I removed the metals in my teeth - my body would not absorb any nutrition - and then after the metals were out - like magic, I started my road back to health.

    make sure if you do remove them to have them taken out in the correct order (metal fillings all have different charges, and will have the most benefit if they are removed properly. (no pain is involved in this procedure, - since no new tooth surface is removed - only the fillings. (rubber dam must also be used) good luck!

    I have Chronic Hepatitis B. I bought the herb in tea form called Chanca Piedra. It reduced my viral load down to 10,000,000 to 325,00 in 2 months. Had I not had such a ridiculously high viral load, I would have been cleared of this by now. I'm hoping the tests I took today will indicate I am at least down to the 10,000's.

    I drank 18oz 3 times a day. The tea was made extremely dark. This site askes that you not mention brand names or websites but I got the tea for $25 from a San Diego Based company called ___. I hope it helps others. I dont know if it can help for Hep C. One bag lasts for 2 weeks. You 're looking at $50 an month. I have to stress that the tea must be made extra dark. I have a glass tea pot I put in the Microwave and then I put in the tea, let it sit over 2 tea candles for 2 to 3 hours. I think I am going to start making some to put in the fridge and just keep making several gallons full. I want to get rid of this!!!!!!

    FYI It has been studied for its toxic effects against the HIV virus too!

    Colloidal Silver

    I have Hepatitis C and I think that I got it in 1981 from a blood transfusion when my daughter was born. I only discovered that I was infected in 2002 when my hands and knee were swollen and I was in so much pain. The doctor told me that I had RA and put me on all of the conventional treatments. During this process, he tested for Hep C and told me that I had this disease. I did not want to take the conventional treatment, so I found out about Colloidal Silver and have used it nearly every day. The RA reduced from 115 to 3 which is within the normal range. I had done alot of research and changed my life style, including diet, eliminating as much toxins from shampoos, toothpaste, deoderant, etc. I do oil pulling, body brushing and take a bath with either hydrogen peroxide, espom salts and baking soda. I did find an holistic doctor and he gave my IV's of vitamins, hydrogen peroxide, and one other that I don't recall at this time. My viral load is lower that it has been prior to these treatments (909,000) and my blood work has normal ranges for the liver panel and other areas. I believe the silver has keep my viral load down (highest was 2 million). I feel great and have no side effects of the Hep C. I was told my an infectious disease doctor that I probably did not have RA, but it was an effect of the Hep C. I have a very positive attitude and I think that I will one day be virus free. I believe that God has played a huge part in my health. I wanted to mention that a doctor told me that I was in the early stages of cirrhosis and had about 5 years to live. I was so confused and angry, but I knew that I was not going to give up. This is a great site and I check every day for new postings. If you have this disease, don't give up, but take care of yourself.

    Extreme Liver Support, Hydrogen Peroxide
    Posted by Ney (S. C., S. C., Dominican Republic) on 01/30/2011

    I am trying to help a friend of mine who has hepatitis C. We obtain these results after a therapy with Extreme Liver Support (2 capsules, 3 times a day), and 7 drops 3% food grade H2O2, in a glass of water, 4 times a day. There were 2 therapy sections, one for 35 days, and the other for 49 days. with a month for resting, in between:

    At the therapy's beginning:

    Virus count: 2,897,116 UI/ml

    SGOT: 59.50

    SGPT: 45.00

    At the therapy's end:

    Virus count: 5,960, 000 IU/ml

    SGOT: 102.30

    SGPT: 90.90

    My friend Was using others supplements beside Extreme Liver Support and H2O2, so these results can not be, exclusively, tyed to the used of Extreme Liver Support and H2O2. Also, the first viral count was done in a different laboratory than the second one. I have some important questions in my mind, and doubs. Mean while I have desided to try a different approach to try the hepatitis, yet using natural, although not at all, natural medicine.

    Any way, apparently bad, or good, jesus loves me and my friend. In Him there are ours strengths.

    He bless you...

    I was reading that Walker from Calumet MI put H202 in a nebulizer. I need to know if it was 3% or 35% and how much to use. My wife and I both have HCV but she also has copd. I'd like to try this, I'm already using 35% along with apple cider vinegar, and a few other things. I've been doing them for about a month now and instead of getting a little worse each day, I actually feel a little better. I'm going to beat this stuff whatever it takes. I had a bad reaction to interferon therapy, I will find a way.

    Hi Shan Ansari... The remedies you mention for hepatitis c are very effective for sure. You might also want to research BHT(Butylated Hydroxytoluene) which is described here:

    https://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/BHT.htmlhttps://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/BHT.html

    BHT is a strong super-anti-oxidant, which -- just on its own -- is very anti-viral and will quickly reduce your viral load considerably as well as reduce AST and ALT levels in your blood. BHT kills both the Hep B and Hep C viruses in the same way as Lysine and Aspirin -- by hydrolysing and dissolving the outer viral envelope. This might be a useful addition to your protocol -- you can buy it over the internet.

    You might also want to research Dr Berkson's simple liver therapy against Hep C. He uses mainly Alpha Lipoic Acid using IV and oral (300 mgs twice a day), with oral selenium(200 micrograms twice a day) and large dose Milk Thistle(900 mgs twice a day) against Hep C and he claims this protocol will prevent the necessity for a liver transplant by curing and getting rid of Hep C completely:

    Hello John, this is Oscar. I will address your concerns to the best of my ability. You state you have allergies and a propensity for hives. For those reasons I highly recommend doing the sensitivity test: Open a capsule of BHT and pour the contents onto a small dish. Lick your finger and daub it onto the BHT crystals and lick those crystals off your finger. Wait for one hour to see if you have an adverse effect such as hives. If you do not, continue to lick up those crystals gradually to continue this sensitivity test until the entire capsule is consumed. Hopefully you will have no adverse effect. The vast majority of people do not in this small dosage. But if you do, do not get dicouraged. From everything I have read about this treatment even BHT sensitive people can overcome this difficulty by gradually ramping up the dosage over a few days. One lick the first day, two licks the second day, etc..

    Regarding the toxicity of BHT to the liver: A Canadian health organization that looked at over 200 animal toxicology studies as to BHT gave BHT a NOEL [ No-Observed-Effect-Level ] of 25mg per kg of body weight per day. Here is a link to that report. You will need to scroll down to section 4. EVALUATION to read that NOEL and what it is based on here: http://www.inchem.org/documents/jecfa/jecmono/v35je02.htm

    Now that works out to 1,250mg per day for a 110 pound person. Some people who discuss BHT as a treatment for viral diseases consider up to 1,000mg of BHT safe for most adults who do NOT have liver disease. You DO have liver disease. The good news is that: I was experiencing LIVER FAILURE when I began my BHT treatment for hepatitis C. I weigh 180 pounds now and did back in 1997 when I successfully treated my HCV infection using only 200mg of BHT per day. Also, this treatment worked very quickly for me. I was testing negative for hepatitis C with the hepatitis C RNA test within 4 weeks and my liver function tests were in the normal ranges in that 4 weeks. They did NOT have viral load count tests back in 1997 so I cannot provide such test results for that reason. I continue to take BHT daily and was told by the Veterans Administration in 2006 that there is NO indication I ever had hepatitis C or B at that time. I had been tested and retested for both infections in 1997 and was positive for both in 1997. I now test negative for both using the anti-bodies and antigens tests. A true CURE was achieved using only the BHT for me taken as I described: on an empty stomach using water to gulp the capsule down with, like you would any other pill....Oscar

    If you decide to give BHT therapy a try I ask you to please post whatever your results are here in this forum. You, or anyone else trying this treatment can always stop taking it, if it has a negative impact on your health. I want to see people get well like I did, and very much wish to hear from people giving this BHT treatment a try....Oscar

    Thanks for the reply. I've read all his posts and could find the answers. Not Exactly. That's why I posted here. I've searched the Internet and you know how that goes... you find something and then you find something else claiming the exact opposite. If anyone here has the answers, I'd really appreciate it. I'd like to continue treatment but I want to make sure I'm not doing something that could damage the liver. I'd also like to know if I can take bht along with my lipoic acid/milk thistle. Oscar said not to but I'd like to know why.

    When I was young about 17 or 18 I was partying hard and had a lot of fun, a little too much if you ask me.

    Anyway fast forward to today. I ended up getting hep c virus from doing drugs. I had the virus for about 22 years. I am clean and sober now days but If I had half a brain when was younger well you know. As soon as I found out that I had hep c I gave up drinking, alcohol speeds up the replication of the virus.

    I started taking bht 250 mg. Anyway I take it twice a day morning and at night 250 mg for a total of 500 mg.

    Started bht in 2017. I started to feel better inside and out. I was able to get up off my couch and do things and was not sleeping my life away. My doctor wanted to check my hcv blood levels.

    I just got the results back. quantitative test is 343,000 qualitative was Undetected Doctors usually consider a viral load over 800,000 IU/ml as high. A low viral load would be less than 800,000 IU/ml. If a quantitative test indicates undetectable viral particle levels, but the qualitative test detects HCV, it means that a person has extremely low levels of HCV in the bloodstream.

    The numbers are looking very good and I will keep up with my bht treatment. I am not taking anything else but D3 and Calcium and zinc.

    I take zinc to boost my immune system. Also I read online that drinking coffee will help your liver function better and it stops the hep c virus from replicating. Also when I feel a cold coming on I take some vitamin c. Almost forgot the most important thing to take, drink lot's of water.

    I just wanted to say hang in there everyone.

    Mercola has an article https://foodfacts.mercola.com/onion.html that says onions have greater antioxidant and antimutagenic activity than BHT. If anyone wants to test their hepatitis status against onion I would be curious to know the result.
