What is AIDS HIV?
AIDS, or Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome, is caused by HIV (Human Immuno Deficiency Virus). HIV is passed from one person to another through blood and sexual contact.when HIV/AIDS was first recognized as a new illness, scientists have learned much about how a person becomes infected with HIV. The virus is spread through contact with an infected person s body fluids, especially through blood, semen and vaginal fluids.Within the past two decades, about 60 million people worldwide have become infected with HIV. More than 20 million have died. More than 90% of these people live in developing countries. There are no specific symptoms of HIV infection or AIDS. AIDS includes a variety of viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections.These infections and cancers may affect the digestive, nervous, respiratory, muscular, circulatory, and lymphatic, as well as the immune systems of the body.An infection has developed, causing certain types of pneumonia, diarrhea, eye infections or meningitis.

Symptoms for AIDS (HIV):
The following symptoms may be other signs of HIV infection:
Rapid weight loss that is not due to increased physical exercise or dieting.
Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.
Swelling or hardening of glands located in the throat, armpit, or groin.
Severe numbness or pain in the hands or feet, the loss of muscle control and reflex, paralysis or loss of muscular strength.An altered state of consciousness, personality change, or mental deterioration.

What Causes Of AIDS (HIV)?
The Human Immuno Deficiency Virus (HIV) must get into the bloodstream in order to infect people. This can happen through vaginal intercourse, anal intercourse, giving oral sex, sharing needles, breast-feeding from mother to child and through receiving a blood transfusion.
Infection of HIV requires these three conditions to be fulfilled:
1.There must be exposure to pre-cum, semen, vaginal secretions, blood, or breast milk.
2.A fresh cut, open sore, abrasion, etc. has to exist in order to allow the virus to get directly into the bloodstream.
3.Since the virus does not survive more than a few minutes outside the body, the transmission must be rapid.

Treatment & Medication for AIDS (HIV):
Your doctor may choose a combination of drugs to fight HIV infection.These drugs are called antiretroviral therapy your doctor hopes to increase the effectiveness of AIDS treatment by attacking HIV at multiple points.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved more than 22 drugs for treating AIDS-related conditions, including drugs that fight opportunistic infections and Kaposi s sarcoma.

Tropical Medications:
Astragalus
Astragalus Extract Full Spectrum
Cat s Claw
Astragalus Glycerine Extract

Home Care Suggestions:
Several herbs and supplements can be used.
A high resisting, immune building diet is primary for success in overcoming AIDS and related conditions.
Use olive oil and eat fish (salmon or other cold water varieties) for protein.

One of the worst things that can happen to anyone is the manifestation of HIV symptoms. To most, an HIV infection is an automatic death sentence. This fear is the main reason why many people don’t get tested, even though they know they are at risk. Perhaps the strongest weapon used to combat this hesitance is information. There are a lot of myths circulating out there regarding HIV symptoms and AIDS symptoms. And until these are negated, a significant proportion of adults will remain uneducated.

First of all, HIV isn’t AIDS, but rather AIDS is a stage in the HIV infection. An HIV infection progresses through three main stages: acute infection, chronic infection, and then AIDS. While HIV symptoms tend to be vague, especially in the first two stages, a few key conditions are night sweats, severe weight loss and swollen lymph nodes.

There is no guarantee that a person who has been diagnosed with HIV, and is showing the classic HIV symptoms, will ever develop AIDS. In persons who do progress, the first AIDS symptoms typically become evident within 10 to 15 years of first contracting the disease. In a small percentage of individuals, the onset of all AIDS symptoms can be as short as 3 years after infection. Sadly, the initial stages of HIV often exhibit no symptoms so by the time a patient shows all AIDS symptoms, their immune system has already been compromised.

AIDS symptoms’ is itself a misleading term as there is no one set of signs that can be used to make an accurate diagnosis without a blood test. That being said, there are some conditions that may point to a possible case of AIDS. They are similar to those of a stage 1 or stage 2 HIV infection but tend to be more acute. All AIDS symptoms include fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, a fever lasting more than 10 days, unexplained weight loss, purplish spots on the skin, shortness of breath, severe or chronic diarrhea, yeast infections in the mouth or vagina, easy bruising or unexplained bleeding and the most well known of all AIDS symptoms, night sweats.

It is clear that all AIDS symptoms are debilitating, but some can be explained by other conditions, such as food poisoning or even heart disease. Therefore, there is generally no reason to worry if you’re just running a fever or you’ve been tired for the past few days. However, if you’re exhibiting three or more of these symptoms, much less all AIDS symptoms or HIV symptoms, and you haven’t been tested, you need to get yourself to a doctor. Even if you have none of the conditions listed and you know that you may have possibly been exposed, get tested. It’s the only smart thing to have done.
