Natural and traditional remedies deserve attention as alternative treatments
in the effort to cure AIDS or ameliorate its symptoms. For centuries, physicians
have applied Chinese as well as Japanese herbal medicines to many kinds
of illnesses. Despite the small number of subjects, the study suggests three
significant results for natural herbal medicines as effective treatment
against HIV infections:
One, we observed an increase in weight and height, and decreases in lymphadenopathy
and various acute opportunistic infections such as skin disease and diarrhea.
Consequently, the AIDS symptoms disappears from many patients.
Two, the CD4 cell count remained high with treatment. We believe this method
will prolong the patient's life.
Three, the mortality rate of patients receiving the natural herbal treatment
throughout 1992 was remarkably reduced in comparison with those receiving
synthetic drugs.
This study was short in duration, less than a year, and the sample size
small. We do not if the immediate benefits will be long term, nor do we
have a full scientific explanation of how their treatment works on HIV.
The scientific bases of the herbal medicines are now being researched and
studied. However, no results are available to report at this date. Finally,
we believe that further research on a larger number of patients over a longer
time are necessary.
第10回国際エイズ会議 横浜市（1994年）
At last year's AIDS Conference in Berlin, we reported on the clinical
results for 50 Romanian children who over one year had been treated for
AIDS with natural remedies compared with another group treated with AZT
(6-8 mg/kg/day). In this study, we found more favorable results in the groups
treated with natural remedies.
Our natural remedies have treated AIDS patients successfully and safely.
Clinical AIDS were decreased and many patients improved to being asymptomatic
HIV carriers. As a result, we are confident that this treatment can prolong
life and remarkably reduce mortality. We believe that the natural herbal
medicines are very efficient in the treatment of AIDS.
STD AIDS 世界会議 シンガポール （1995年）
With the permission of the Romanian government, natural herbal remedies
were used to treat pediatric AIDS patients at Constanta Municipal Hospital
for a period of thirty months beginning in March 1992. During the treatment,
we observed significant improvement in clinical symptoms, CD4 count, and
infant growth.
For thirty months beginning in March 1992, the clinical efficacy of natural
herbal prescriptions in treating pediatric AIDS patients was investigated.
At the start, clinical AIDS cases numbered 29 (73%) out of 40. The number
declined to 3 (8%) out of 36 surviving patients after thirty months of the
treatment.
During the treatment period, the mortality rate fell to about one fifth
of the comparative group. No patients died in the last nine months of the
treatment. CD4 count increased during treatment, indicating that immune
system function had been improved. Nine cases (25%) went from clinical AIDS
or ARC to being asymptomatic. However, encephalopathy (P2B) was not improved
in comparison with other symptoms.
From the clinical viewpoint, the efficacy of herbal remedies on pediatric
AIDS patients was confirmed. We will continue scientific research on this
method of treatment.
第11回国際エイズ会議 カナダ、バンクーバー（1996年7月）
To observe the effects of herbal medicines on AIDS, 40 cases of infantile
AIDS have been treated with natural remedies for three and a half years.
Forty infants aged 2 to 6 were treated with herbal prescriptions which are
recognized as effective and not toxic. The contents of these prescriptions
were changed approximately once every month according to clinical conditions.
The morphometrical measurements and clinical findings were recorded every
two months. Another 72 cases were treated with synthetic drugs as results
were compared.
The group treated with natural medicines (Chan Bai San and Astol) was significantly
improved, especially as evidenced by morphometrical measurements and intercurrent
infection. lncreased CD4 cell counts supported this improvement. Several
patients showed great improvement to recover to asymptomatic carieer from
clinical AIDS. Compared with the control group, the mortality rate was reduced
by about one third.
We concluded that herbal treatment of AIDS can be done safely, improve the
quality of life, prolong life, and promote the immunological responses that
encourage a recovery to asymptomatic conditions.
