Fascinating info. Thanks.
Google "Thiagrajan hepatitis b" and you will find more.
When Dr. Baruch Blumberg worked with the Indian researchers, the results indicated that extracts were not as effective as the original plants.
Anyone knew what this medicine is (seems the article is dated 1999) ?

If you insist on having the link and are willing to take responsibility for your choice of treatment, please send me a private message which I will reply with the link.
Please post info. on how to get this treatment. Any contact info?
I hear you and understand. No one knows for sure the damage done with treatment and damage if one is not treated.
Having two schools of thought is certainly a great thing.
As you mentioned these drugs are not cheap and potential damage is unknown. The very thought this is a lifetime commitment is daunting.
Please do keep an eye on this forum and who knows one day we will have Walgreens taking our DNA and produce new "liver" and implant it over drive through - thus making all the drugs invalid :)
With same disclaimer, could you please post it ?
--If interested, please send me a private message.
You have been quiet for a while.
--My quietness is due to A) my discomfort at pushing fellow HBVers to piles of chemicals when 1) they only control not cure; 2) resistance is a problem down the road; 3) even if chemists can concoct new chemicals fast enough that replace the ones that become useless due to resistance, damage due to toxicity is already done to the body, particularly to the liver; 4) even though these chemicals produce beautiful lab results, case after case of tearful, painful, desperate and impoverished accounts by HBVers themselves or their families in Chinese HBV site so sadly show that normal ALT, AST, HBV-DNA, even negative HBsAg mean little to patients of years of chemical consumption who have to face cirrhosis, ascites, HCC when they are physically, emotionally and financially drained to such weakness that "No treatment at all," some of them say, "may give them a better chance." and B) my patient waiting for facts that my fact-seeking, objective HBV friends Steven, zellyf, bberry, etc. so need to be convinced, facts that once available will change my silence into a long bubbling of words whose comprehension will require the aid of A) B) C) and 1) 2) 3).
Best.
