Biology Week 8: HIV and AIDS

The western approach to AIDS is like most other western approaches in medicine, for the most part they are treating the symptoms, or overriding the body's system causing other imbalances like Truvada. But western medicine does offer forms of feeling better and I think that's really important to acknowledge. Yeah, pain pills, NSAIDS, steroids, etc might be addicting or bad for your health, but I am really happy they are here for people who feel they really need them.
I think in the way of research and finding "a cure" like we have for so many diseases is a good thought, but probably way more of a business than anything.

TCM can be a great way to strengthen your immune system. Through herbs, qi gong, acupuncture, massage, and diet great leaps can be made.
