HERBAL TEA BENEFITS ON HIV
At Bagus Farm, Our herbal teas are very useful in helping alliviate HIV. Herbal teas are primarily used by people living with HIV (PLWH) to manage side effects, alleviate symptoms, and support overall well-being
Symptom Relief:
- Nausea and Digestion:
Chamomile and Cardamom teas are commonly used to soothe digestive upset, nausea, and vomiting. - Appetite Stimulation:
Some herbs, like Cardamom, may help those experiencing a loss of appetite. - Infection Support: Calendula tea is sometimes used to help with infections of the upper digestive tract
Immune Support & Antioxidants:
- Oxidative Stress:
Some herbal teas, such as Alternanthera pungens, have shown potential in reducing markers of oxidative stress and potentially supporting CD4 counts in specific trials. - Green Tea: Contains epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has shown the ability to block HIV from binding to CD4 cells in test-tube (in vitro) studies. However, these effects have not been consistently proven to work inside the human body at normal drinking levels.
