In Reply to: MGN3, Hydrogen Peroxide, Oxidative therapy posted by Greg on February 21, 2000 at 14:57:32:
: Thoughts on these would be greatly appreciated. I had a good friend in Colorado who went to a treatment center in Mexico and has had a wonderful recovery and his liver enzymes have returned to normal and he is now asymtomatic. He was involved in Hydrogen Peroxide therapy, enzymes and Ozone treatments. Does anybody have any knowledge on any of these.
: Thanks in advance for follow ups

Dear Greg,
The "treatments" you mention may have reduced the liver enzymes, or they may not have. Liver enzymes rise and fall. Likewise, the symptoms come and go. Neither the enzymes (unless a pattern over time) or the symptoms tell us anything about disease state. The only measure of disease state is the biopsy. PCR's may measure treatment outcome if the outcome of treatment is to reduce virus in the blood. This is even inexact due to the limitations on technology.
There is no substitute for the biopsy to tell how your HCV is progressing (or not). There is no cure for hepatitis C and the currently offered pharmaceutical therapies are successful in only about 20% of cases in the long term.
If therapy has not been successful for you, or you cannot or do not want to use them, you must protect your liver from anything that might prove toxic. I haven't any knowledge or expertise in the substances you mentioned. Please check with a doctor on their potential to be liver toxic before using them. This is independent of whether they may be beneficial. Substances toxic to the liver can be deadly for someone with a liver disease. Please be careful.
I hope this helps.
