Alternative Views of AIDS

The science involved in the following sites would not be considered "mainstream" and would not be accepted by most clinicians or researchers in the field of AIDS/HIV. Indeed, some of them may contain information or advice that could be very detrimental to your health. You should view them with extreme caution. However, in the interest of fairness and academic freedom, they are listed on All the Virology on the WWW under this special section. Any comments about their placement or contents should be directed to me.

DHEA inhibits replication of AZT-resistant and wild-type HIV-1 (Biochem. Biophysi. Re. Comm. 1994, 201: 1424. "DHEA protects mice against West Nile virus, Sindbis virus neurovirulent, and Semliki Forest virus lethal injection.K" (Archives of Virology 1991, 120: 263) This site contains a theory developed and copyrighted in 1985 which demonstrates that low production, or antagonism, of the adrenal hormone, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), increases vulnerability to the HIV and AIDS, as well as other bacterial and viral infections.
