Our journey with hiv is filled with the unknown and a lifetime of evolving. Sometimes it is comforting to know that there is more that we can do about our health from the comfort of our homes, rather than the anxiousness of contacting and travelling to a dr's office.
After 15 years, i'm now a cancer and hiv survivor. I've learned some natural therapies along the way, that have provided me with a sense of greater empowerment over my health and an opportunity to experience what is known holistically as 'whole body' health utilization. Whole body treatment is the pracrtice of treating the body as a whole totreat an ailment, versus taking a treatment for an ailment singularly each time it arises.
If it is possible, it is most advisable for us to eat as organic as we can. Try to steer clear of gmo's(genetically modified organism). Get as much excercise as you can. Here are a few trusted applications i've found to work great and that don't interfere with most medications.
