Recovery of the Immune System in a New Study with Gene-Eden, a Natural Antiviral Supplement that Targets Chronic Viruses

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

New scientific study revealed that treatment with the natural antiviral supplement Gene-Eden caused a complete recovery of the immune system and an amazing 34% reduction in tumor size in a patient with pancreatic cancer. The study, which was conducted at the Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease by Hanan Polansky and Ido Dafni, was recently published in Acta Oncologica, a leading scientific journal in clinical oncology and related disciplines, and the official journal of the five Nordic oncological societies.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive types of cancer and is very resistant to medical treatment. In United States alone, physicians diagnose more than 40,000 new cases each year, and more than 35,000 die from the disease annually. The standard treatments include surgical removal of the tumor (only for localized disease), chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. The tragedy is that these treatments have a limited impact on the progression of the disease, and as a result, less than 5 percent of the patients are still alive five years after being diagnosed. Complete remission is very rare.

Aldara Cream And Its Possible Side Effects While Treating Genital Warts

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Aldara cream is a topical medication (one which is applied to a definite or localized area of the body) used widely for treating genital warts (a sexually transmitted disease caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) which spreads through skin-to-skin contact during sex with an infected partner). Genital warts occur as small flesh-colored bumps similar to cauliflowers in appearance. They can be found mostly in the genital areas as well as the throat and mouth. They are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) which has the potential to infect almost 50 percent of men and women who are active sexually. Once can also get infected with genital warts upon exposure to contaminated medical equipment.

At present, the treatment of genital warts involves surgical procedures like laser therapy, freezing and burning off the warts. The other and more economical alternative is the application of topical medications like aldara cream which has been found to be effective and user-friendly. Once prescribed by a doctor, a patient can apply it himself directly on the wart(s) three times a week, or as prescribed by the doctor. Despite its apparent benefits and advantages, Aldara cream is not without side effects, some of which can be quite unwanted.
