Does BHT mess with your menstrual cycle? I've always been extremely regular with my cycle. Shortly after starting taking it, my period never came. Has anyone else have cycle irregularity after taking it daily?

BHT Taken With Water or Oil

Dag (Melburn, Floduh) on 02/16/2025

For OSCAR and other highly quoted writers!!! I would suggest taking BHT with and without oil, since there's no study to compare the two other than personal opinions. I don't see any negative effects of studies with higher doses. I would suggest taking the recommended dosage WITH oil and, also, WITHOUT oil. So, up to 200mg x 2 with water and up to 200mg x 2 WITH oil. That way, one way or the other, the BHT is working.

This needs to be addressed. Studies show that it's fat soluble, but Oscar says otherwise with only personal opinion, it seems.

BHT Helping Pain.. Wondering About Kidneys

I have been taking 200mg BHT since about mid 1972 and have noticed I never had colds or flue but stopped taking it 2012 as have kidney tumors removed at the VA.

My health has slowly become more susceptible to the flues going around and arthritis has become unbearable. having read every available medical journal paper concerning BHT and Lipid coatings have decided to start taking BHT again three days ago. I do say I don't look my age but I did start aging noticeable after stopping the BHT.

I have already noticed several interesting results, my knee pain, back pain and fingers in the morning have decreased marketable. The Knee is waiting for replacement the end of the year and is incredible painful and has stopped my long walks, 5-10 miles a day to a block if able. The back was crushed in Nam.

So far I'm looking forward to less pain and more mobility if this continues.

My problems are the Kidneys. The right side is running at 20% and the left is 60% efficiency. I'm 81 now and look 65 but if I can at least enjoy life and maybe live longer the risk for the maybe worth the risk for the Kidneys.

What do you think?

BHT Stopped HSV-2 Outbreaks

I was averaging 1-2 outbreaks a month of HSV 2 for many years (maybe 20 years). Acyclovir stopped them if started early enough, but only temporarily. I started taking BHT 300 mg, 5 months ago and I have not had even one outbreak. I am in heaven. SO grateful

BHT for Lipid-Coated Viruses

Mr. Dag Mo (Melbourne, FL) on 12/03/2022

Why hasn't anyone spoke up about the BHT cure for ALL lipid-enveloped viruses which most are deadly. HIV and Covid-19 are both lipid-enveloped!!!  I mean you can kill off the 5 most deadly diseases with one simple cure! ... Hepatitis (A through E), Coronavirus family, HIV, Herpes, annual flu, etc. Just take BHT! It won't help kill the non-lipid viruses, but most of the ugly viruses are fatty viruses. I'm surprised that this isn't an editor's choice. There really hasn't been a point that it can help cure AIDS/HIV and Covid-19! It blows my mind.

BHT for Chronic Virus

Joy (Franklin ) on 08/07/2022

I've been seeing great improvement in using bht (lysine, olive leaf, blk cummin seed) to fight off a lifetime battle with the pox camilion. Probably originated with the smallpox vaccination in childhood. They called the blisters sun poisoning and then cold sores.

Recently I've been using castor oil drops in my eyes with great results for the ocular nerve, but I'm really wanting to put some bht into the castor oil for my eyedrops. I'm not finding any reference to be sure it's a safe bet. Can anyone shed some light on the prospect? Most kindly, Joy

Research shows that BHT is used to treat genital herpes and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). People apply BHT directly to the skin for cold sores too. So I guess it doesn't have much side effects.

BHT flu update: Used the BHT remedy about twice a year since I posted in 2017. It has worked each time and I never got sick. Used just one dose per day, two days maximum. Still my favorite flu remedy!

For it to be used in pharmaceuticals and not considered a medication is for animal doses showing harm at high doses.

Ex wife took this for a couple years for herpes simplex 1 on my advice, having read Pearson and Shaw. She used to get the "cold sores" all the time. Never had a single one while taking this. The health food store where we were getting it shut down, we couldn't find anyone else local, so we let it go. A month later she was in full bloom. This was in the mid 80s. My non-professional opinion is why pay for high $ anti-retro-virals when this cheap solution really works? If I had it I'd try this first and only go to the doc if this failed. By all accounts, low-dose BHT suppresses herpes simplex. I'm a believer, based on close secondary personal experience. It really works for the herp.

Where to Buy BHT

Swfowkes (Cupertino, California) on 02/15/2018

Vitamin Research Products is no longer selling BHT. They are under new management and have discontinued several products, and switched other product's formulations without notice. If you are reacting to an encapsulated BHT product, try buying BHT in bulk. It's cheaper, and if you dislike the taste, you can put it into capsules knowing that there are no excipients, fillers, anti-caking agents or flow facilitators.

Re: BHT for Hep B

Mary (Los Angeles) on 09/10/2017

Luke, I also have chronic hbv. I am doing the bht therapy currently. a year or two ago I did bht + chanca piedra tea, and my viral load went from 500 million to 14 million. I did blood tests every 4-5 months or so, and sometimes I would only take chanca piedra and other times only bht, my viral load kept decreasing. That was a SIGNIFICANT decrease that happened over a year of on and off supplementation, and showed me that that both of those work.

Unfortunately, due to having such a high viral load, and due to being infected since very very young age (6 months), I seem to be developing cirrhosis, as my platelet count is low (platelet sequestration) and I have some spleen enlargement due to portal hypertension. Because of this, I feel that it is a good idea for me to also take serrapeptase (a proteolytic enzyme).

I am currently taking bht, chanca piedra, serrapeptase for my liver fibrosis, and also, to increase immune system and guard myself from developing liver cancer (very possible due to this god forsaken virus), I am taking AHCC (I trust the brand quality of life). I read some great testimonials about AHCC clearing infections as well (like hep b, and it's also very much anti-cancer).

I am going to do these therapies, and for my low platelet dangerous condition, also going to be taking many green smoothies (for their vit k content). During dental work and menstruation I take vit k2 supplement because I want to avoid heavy bleeding by increasing my platelets even more so.

I will update this post every month or so. I found this website very useful, and I will be posting here about bht, and the treatments that I am using. I feel pretty good about these, as I already feel better after a few days of supplementing myself with the above-mentioned treatment plan.

I really hope this is useful to anyone else who was as desperate as I. I am barely 25 and have goals in life, I am not going to let this virus screw up my life.

BHT for Viruses

Oscar's recent BHT post on anti-aging reminded me that I forgot to write in about BHT for viruses. I started to get a cold/flu/something twice over the past 6 months. Both times I took just 1/2 capsule of 350 mg BHT in a half glass of water. By the next day I was fine, no symptoms. Awesome. Thank you, Oscar!

BHT Slows Down Aging

Oscar (Syracuse, New York) on 05/12/2017
5 out of 5 stars

BHT does slow down aging. I ran out of BHT about 1 month ago and can see and feel the difference in how rapidly I am aging. I am now 68 years old. And as you get older the aging process speeds up as all of us elderly people know all too well.

It has been proven many times over that BHT extends the freshness of all foods greatly. Also products such as tires and other rubber products. Also fuels such as gasoline. Myself and many others believe this is the result of BHT`s ability to squelch free radical reactions. It does so by adding a hydrogen atom to a free radical such as OH. and H. that both occur when water is split. I believe that when BHT emits hydrogen atoms it does so in pairs. If this was not true the BHT molecules would become free radicals. So when BHT emits 2 hydrogen atoms closest to each other on the BHT molecule a carbon to carbon bond occurs between those carbons, satisfing the octet rule resulting in a stable molecule.

That BHT is an excellent preservative in non-living substances is NOT in question. BHT`s ability to do so in living organisms is still debated.

I will close this posting by stating that even though the BHT available for sale is made artificially, it is EXACTLY the same compound found in nature so to speak. In fresh water algae, salt water plants that occur along the shores. A growing number of such plants continue to be found.

In my opinion: BHT does slow down aging in the way I just described. I just ordered some BHT. I will try hard to never run out again.

My Best to All,

Oscar
