AIDS/HIV

"He, who knows how to listen, hears wisdom.
He, who does not know how to listen, hears only noise."
Chinese saying.

Since AIDS burst onto the scene in the late 1970's, more than 20,000,000 people worldwide have been infected with HIV according to the World Health Organization. Since then, over 4,500,000 cases of full blown AIDS have occurred.

AIDS compromises the immune system resulting in serious illnesses that would normally be overcome with a normal immune system. Is there a cure? Not yet. That's a real bummer.  What's a person supposed to do in the meantime while the medical community is searching for a cure?

If you are HIV+, you want to delay the onset of full blown AIDS by getting your health and defense systems in tip top shape. If you already have AIDS, "quality of life" is a real issue since symptoms and medication side effects can be quite devastating.

I believe the 10 minutes or so it takes you to review this short web page will be well worth your time.

We have a certain responsibility to keep our bodies in good health,
as far as it lies within our power to do so…as a loan from God.

Our NATURAL & ALTERNATIVE HEALING RESOURCE DIRECTORY provides information on great products and where to buy them that specifically target many of the conditions that affect "modern man" today.  Drinking Kombucha on a regular basis also may very well be the most important thing you can do to regain and maintain good health.

What is Kombucha:

It is an Oriental fermented tea remedy that can be traced back to 400 B.C. where it originated in what is known today as Korea. It's perfectly safe and is used today by 500 million people around the world. Emperors, Czars and even an American President have used the tea. The President in the 1980's was being treated for Cancer and was having metastases (spreading of cancer cells). A culture was brought in from Japan and incorporated into his treatment. He survived and lived into his nineties.

It wasn't until 1993 that Kombucha was introduced to the American public. Today, over 3,000,000 Americans drink Kombucha on a regular basis.

What benefits can reasonably be expected if an HIV+ positive person drinks Kombucha on a regular basis?


This ain't yo mama's tea
 


The first thing one usually notices is an increase in energy. The tea is liquid and all the beneficial properties are very easily absorbed into your bloodstream. The tea aids digestion and the nutrients are more efficiently absorbed into the blood stream and carried to all parts of your body, hence more energy. Hippocrates is credited with the say "death sits in our bowels".  When I was studying for "Who wants to be a millionaire" somewhere in that 7 foot high stack of books I read that adults have about 5 pounds of beneficial intestinal flora.  Most medical professionals agree that a healthy digestive system is needed for healing to begin. Kombucha is a living tea containing friendly bacteria and beneficial yeasts (not to be confused with Candida Albicans) and nourishes colon flora. Most report that constipation, nausea and diarrhea are no longer a problem.

Kombucha has basically the same pH as normal stomach acids. It therefore can bring your digestive juices back into balance thus relieving heartburn etc.

Sometimes skin conditions are associated with HIV/AIDS. It can provide relief if you have the condition and works to prevent future outbreaks.

Many report improved mood and clarity of thought some even going so far as to say they feel "more at peace" or even "closer to god".

Both the AIDS virus and some of the medications being taken can kill off enormous numbers of blood cells and create a lot of waste materials. You don't want these to build up in your organs and or blood stream.

Kombucha also has cleansing, detoxifying and acidifying properties plus polyphenols and weak acids. Its Glucuronic Acid (GA) then binds toxins in the liver which are then sent to the urine. Toxins bound by GA cannot be reabsorbed by the intestines or the urinary system. GA is a building block for connective tissue, cartilage, stomach lining, vitreous humor of the eye and heparin. Regular detoxifying promotes healing.

The fermentation process also produces a variety of substances from acetylcholine, which benefits the body's nervous system to choline, which normalizes blood pressure and prevents hypertension.

All of these processes together lead to an improved immune system and the creation of an inhospitable environment for pathogens. Your body, therefore, should be in a better condition to fight off disease naturally. This ability is credited to Kombucha being probiotic rather than antibiotic.

Kombucha sometimes enhances the effectiveness of traditional medications and it is important to keep your health provider informed so dosage can be adjusted accordingly.  If you are a loved one is HIV+ or has AIDS, you seriously need to consider adding Kombucha to your diet.

HERE ARE WHAT SOME KOMBUCHA DRINKERS HAVE TO SAY:

See if you can locate a copy on the net or microfilm of the August 1994 Positive Living newsletter published by AIDS Project Los Angeles. It profiles Joe Lustig, a Long Beach man who at one point felt like life wasn't worth living any more. Under the headline claiming "Reborn on the 4th of July" he tells his AIDS story. After a short time on Kombucha he was able to start running and riding his bike again among other things.

Another writes: About 5 years ago I was diagnosed as HIV+ at which time my T4 count was 660. It then started to drop all the way down to 390. I started drinking Kombucha and after 3 months my count was back up to 570. I also find it helpful with my arthritis and sinus problems.

Bret is a truck driver in AZ: I have AIDS and was almost bed ridden. In one month my candida is gone. I'm gaining weight again and have been able to do yard work a couple hours a day. I'm running around everywhere and enjoying life again. I wouldn't be surprised if my T-cells went up.

Terry in CA tells his experience: I am a 36 year old male who is HIV+. My T-cell count was in the high 500's and I had nausea that kept me from eating which resulted in a 35 pound weight loss. My medication had caused me to have diarrhea which had lasted over 2 months. Since drinking the Kombucha tea the cramping and diarrhea has stopped. I gained 7 pounds in the last 30 days.

Tom lives in AZ: I am living with AIDS. For the last 4 years I have had the most severe eosinophilic folliculitis, primarily on my arms and legs. No relief after 5 dermatologists and huge bucks. Today, my arms are totally healed and the legs are coming along nicely. I'm so happy not to be covered with scabs and sores. This is a magical gift from God and I treasure my "buchees".

I am HIV+ and have been drinking Kombucha for about 2 months now. I have noticed several improvements in my skin related HIV problems. I don't know what effect if any the tea is having on my t-cells but I am experiencing a greater amount of energy and far less symptoms than at any point in my disease so far. P.J.T.

Being stupid, isn't not knowing much, nor is it not wanting to know much. Being stupid, is believing you know enough.  A.J. Daniel-novelist

American industrialized medicine is geared to treating symptoms. The Oriental approach it to treat the causes and eliminate the problem which is why so many AIDS/HIV sufferers have benefited from Kombucha.

Kombucha by itself doesn't cure anything.
It simply nourishes at the cellular level so that your marvelous body can heal itself.


It costs only about $5 a month since you brew the tea yourself. About 1 or 2 hours a month is needed for the brewing and cleanup. It's also simple. If you can bake a Duncan Hines cake then you too can be a Master Brewmeister.

I grew up in Missouri and as Uncle Harry (Truman) would say, the buck stops here.  If you are willing to put forth a little effort there is no reason for you to continue to suffer.
