Hepatitis B


Included in the Life Extension Foundation's protocol for hepatitis are the following:

Milk Thistle Extract
Licorice Extract
Selenium
Glutathione
Vitamin C

Hepatitis B is most commonly spread by physical contact with contaminated blood as in the sharing of nonsterilized needles or by sexual relations.  Symptoms of hepatitis B range from loss of appetite, weakness, body aches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, hives, joint pains, yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice), and dark urine, to a "unique" distaste for tobacco.  The latter symptom often characterizes a "full-blown" hepatitis infection."

The protective role of selenium against hapatitis B viruses was reported in early January of 1997 in the Journal of Biological Trace Element Research. The study reported that in areas of China with high rates of Hepatitis B and primary liver cancer, high levels of dietary  Selenium  reduce liver-cancer incidence and hepatitis B infection.

It is recommended that the dose of Selenium is 800 micrograms a day.  Along with the Selenium, you should be taking Milk Thistle, Licorice, and Vitamin C.
