effects of ARVs include nerve damage, weakened bones, unusual accumulation of
fat in the neck and abdomen and drug-induced diabetes. Many people have
developed dangerously high levels of cholesterol and other lipids in the blood,
raising concern that HIV positive persons might face another epidemic of heart

research evidence from the fields of AIDS, cancer and heart disease, points
to the dramatic difference in disease prevention, made through access to
right nutrition, exercise and changed lifestyle.

Health

body's nutrition pool over generations, and the destruction of the immune
system. As sub-Saharan Africa plunged deeper into the cycle of poverty,
malnutrition and civil war, it also suffered epidemics of Ebola, Marburg or Lhassa
fever that stayed with them for decades. AIDS, they say, is the logical
conclusion of this onslaught. The deepening economic crisis of

because of their depleting nutrition status, stress and compromised immunity. This
implies that the poor 'AIDS Victims' of the world, as a whole need more than
condoms, sex education and a cocktail therapy of questionable value and we
need to look at our age-old Holistic Healing modalities, which are safer,
cheaper, faster and more reliable than the lethal cocktails.

> In 1976, the World Health Assembly acknowledged the potential value of
traditional medicine in expanding health services by calling attention to the
manpower reserve constituted by traditional health practitioners (resolution
WHA29.72). In the following year, another resolution (WHA30.49) urged countries
to utilize their traditional systems of medicine. Yet another resolution was
passed in 1978, in which WHO was called upon to

(WHA31.33). In 1987, the Fourtieth World Health Assembly reaffirmed the main points
of the earlier resolutions, as well as related recommendations made at the
International Conference on Primary Health Care, held in Alma-Ata in 1978
(WHA40.33). In 1989, a resolution was passed (WHA42.43) that recalled earlier
resolutions on traditional medicine, traditional health practitioners, and
traditional remedies and affirmed that together they constitute a comprehensive
approach to the utilization of medicinal plants in the health services.

The principles of healing are very simple : (a) the body heals itself (b)
there is an inner environment (c) treatment should not be worse than the
disease.

is made out to be. Ayurveda, Nature Cure, Yoga, Homoeopathy and other
alternative therapies hold tremendous promise in AIDS as also in so-called incurable
diseases. Therefore, it is time to halt the wasteful expenditure in dead-end
biomedical research and divert those funds to holistic healing modalities.
