We went there for 2 weeks, he was so ill he couldn't even roll his own suitcase to the hotel. After 1 week of treatment, he could go up stairs again, he didn't feel like he had the flu, could walk around and could sleep again. When he finished the treatments after two weeks, we flew back to Los Angeles, my husband picked us up at the airport and couldn't believe his eyes when he saw my brother. Dr. Berkson treats many auto immune diseases. We saw miracles in the 2 weeks we were there with several other people. This treatment is not expensive and works. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't experience it with my brother. Our friend is now being treated for his MS and having amazing results as well. Dr. Berkson uses ALA, Silymarin, Selenium IV's with a B complex injection. He also uses a low dose Naltrexone at night. Dan's MRI after treatment showed diminishing of the lesion on his liver and all of his lab work is moving in the right direction. The Dr at Kaiser asked what he was doing, because he was surprised at how his lab work turned out. We never told him because we thought he would be offended or try to convince us not to go back in 6 months for a "top up".
Berkson looks at your lab work (you can fax it) and tells you if he thinks he can help you or not free of charge. People were there from all over the world telling us about their success with this treatment.

A dentist from Tufts Dental in Boston gave me a pain medication for a root canal in 2003 which turned out to be the WRONG medication and I had anaphyectic shock and had to be taken to the hospital in the middle of the night...
They talked me into having a physical at the hospital which I hadn't had since I was born... They found out that I had hep-c and my liver enzymes were AST-33... ALT... 49... One was normal and the nother elevated by points... WHICH IS NOTHING! My PCP (Dr. Marilyn Kovnat) told me when I walked into the office for the results, "You don't have to DIE... You can take interferon. " It was like getting hit with a sledgehammer...
She also said I "NEEDED a liver biopsy. " I was very uninformed with regard to any of this includinfg what was hepatitis c... I had the liver biopsy and walked bent over for 6 months and my enzymes went close to 400 for both of them... I still have both enzymes over 100..
The point being to this mini story that my immune system was keeping my hepatitis c at bay... For 34 years... I had the biopsy and it awoke the virus and it has been hell since... The bottom line for anyone is DO NOT HAVE A BIOPSY... You can have a fibrosure test or a fibroscan test which is the state of the art in Europe and is NON_INVASIVE... It isn't a big money and because of this and (of course) is not recommended or approved in this country... BUT you can get on as I did in Beth Isreal Hospital in Boston...
Good luck and don't let the Dr's run your life... They're LESS ethical than used car sales men...
Finally my PCP talked me into going on Atenolol because my father had a history of high blood pressure... After 20 minutes of discussion/disagreements I agreed to go on it... Bear in mind I never ONCE registered high blood pressure... 9 months later I had to be wheelchaired into a hospital for a 4 1/2 heart operation for ventricular tachycardia... I had a Radio Frequency Catheter Ablation operation... Beware of Dr's advice...

Thanks for posting about colloidal silver used to treat Hep C. I've never personally known of cs usage for Hep although I've posted a number of times asking if anyone had tried it.
Can you give specifics? I mean load numbers.
There is a well known and very smart poster on EC who often talks of BHT usage with great success. He is always asking for specifics on successes.
So to add to the remedy possibilities, what were your numbers before and after. Hopefully Oscar will weigh in and ask you some questions. He is the poster I referred to.

I will give a little history as I plan on commenting on my treatment with BHT as necessary
I was diagnosed with Hep C back in 1999, type 1A, I think I contracted the virus from blood transfusions in 1984 as a result of an auto accident.
I have never had any treatment as of yet. My first test back in 1999 resulted in a viral load of about 2 million and as of this past April 2012 is now over 21 million. My liver function tests are slightly elevated but nothing to be overly concerned about. My latest ultrasound (also April 2012) was normal.
However, I am usually exhausted by mid afternoon.
I took my first 350mg dose this morning on an empty stomach as suggested and have taken 9,000mg of Vit C over the past 2 months, which I have not decided if I will continue to take while on the BHT. Since taking the Vit C I have noticed an improvment in my energy levels.
I will post further updates as my condition changes, dosages change etc....
thanks for all the good information on this site.
Please read the following: A Kuwait study found no evidence of carcinogenity but also that BHT isn't much fun for the liver: "BHT resulted in a significant increase in liver weight. The liver cells presented gradual vacuolization, cytoplasmic disintegration, "moth-eaten" appearance, ballooning degeneration, hepatocellular necrosis. " A Swedish study also found that BHT damages the liver. Oscar what is your opinion of this? Thanks, Dave

My email is connected anyone wishing to verify with me, be my guest.
BHT works, I hear many skeptics ask for proof, well I am that proof feel free to contact me or post your email and I will contact you. So much being stolen, pharmchem hushing this with doctors and healthcare people. Some ask what are you doing to your body taking BHT. Well, I'll ask them what is interferon and these new drugs doing?. BHT no side effects, zero, zip, nada. 2 caps a day with a glass of water.
So lower your dosage, at least for now. Always split the dose if taking more than 350mg per day. And take the BHT with some fruit juice such as grape juice or cranberry juice. Try doing that and let this forum know if that resolves any problems you are having with the BHT treatments. Some better answers are hopefully becoming apparent for those trying the BHT treatment.

I did Ted's 4 day aspirin and lysine while waiting on the bht. Also milk thistle.
I just read there is sometimes fluctuation to normal. What do think about that? I am still tired but I feel a great psychological lift. This is good news isn't it?
Many people who weigh around 175 pounds do very well on one dose of 250mg of BHT taken twice a day. In the morning and at night. BHT should be taken on an empty stomach with a gulp of water.
People who weigh 125 pounds or less often do best with one dose only of 250mg of BHT per day. People who weigh 200 pounds or more often do well with one 350mg of BHT taken twice a day. These are rough guidelines only. Each person has to find a dose they are comfortable with.
Also we recently had a man who weighs 180 pounds and has the HCV type 1a infection. He used only one 250mg capsule of BHT per day and reduced his viral load from 10 million to 1 million in 3 short weeks
I recommend anyone first starting the BHT treatment use no more than one 250mg capsule of BHT per day for the first week. If adverse effects are experienced lower the amount of BHT used....Oscar

If you want to research it the information is out there on the web. The people discovered BHT`s ability to treat viruses with lipid containing coatings: Person, Snipes, Keith, and Cupp. Their original article appeared in the Journal: SCIENCE volume 188 in 1975. There's my answer to treating hepatitis-C. It is worth mentioning that the AID`s virus has a similar structure, lipid containing envelope.... Oscar
Thanks for your posting on BHT. I have been treating hcv since 2002. I started with interferon injection which gave me a serious side effect. Since then, I have tried a lot of other products without any luck. The test I had in March 2011 showed that the viral count had increased to 278,000 IU. The hcv has developed resistance to a lot of treatments.
When I read your posting two days ago, I jumped at it and, I wish to try it. But my concern is the fear that the hcv might be resistance to BHT too. My questions: Did you swallow the capsule or did you open the capsule and pour the powder into the water and drank it? Did you drink anything with it? Some websites suggest that it could be taken with lysine and vit. C. What do you advise? I want to take it exactly as you took yours, may be I could also have the same result you had. Is there any food I should avoid? After taking the BHT, how many hours lapsed before taking your breakfast? Could you please reply me quickly? I AM BROKEN HEARTED BECAUSE OF HCV. Thanks.

Because of conflicting results, no one really knows what the cancer risk - if any - is from BHT. The possibility should not be ignored; anyone who uses BHT or any synthetic chemical should consider there may be consequences yet unknown from the use of non-naturally occuring chemicals.

BHT
Also, some people have discussed side effects including stomach discomfort and dizzyness. Most people have NO side effects. But, some do. An easy sensitivity test can be done. Open up a capsule and pour the contents on to a small dish. Lick your finger and daub it on the crystals and lick that finger. Wait an hour and see if you have any side effect. If you DO, don`t get discouraged. Some simple ramping up will resolve this issue. Simply lick 2 daubs the next day. You will get used to it in almost all cases. For most people this is not an issue. A very many people take BHT on a daily basis for conditions including any of the herpes viruses for example.
The brand I have been using for over 10 years now is that sold by: Vitamin Research Products, a trusted name in supplements and THEY have been making and selling BHT for a long time now. Once you reach that: NO VIRAL LOAD DETECTED result you still need to keep taking the BHT for at least 2 years. I still take it because it is a proven average lifespan extender and keeps you appearing younger. The reason you need to keep taking the BHT is because even when no virus is detected in your blood your liver will still be full of infected cells. Because the liver completely renews itself in about one year, if you keep your blood free of the viral particles, eventually a true cure does occur.
I never took interferon or anything other than BHT to treat my Hepatitis-C infection and I had HCV with a failing liver. Give the BHT a chance by itself. And do this for me: Report any and all liver function test results along with any viral load count tests. This BHT [ butylated hydroxytoluene ] stuff really does work. Read what fatcha brute has to say about that here: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?p=6967512
BHT
Now both Dr. W and fatcha brute were using larger dosages. Fatcha brute was using two 350mg capsules per day. Dr. W was using larger dosages initially. And Victoria was using the smaller dosage [ 200mg to 250mg per day ].
Victoria achieved impressive results in about 2 months at that dosage. Her viral load went down by two thirds of what it had been and her liver function tests returned to normal or healthy readings in about 2 months. That is an impressive improvement. So, if you can tolerate the 350mg dose taken TWICE a day, GREAT. If not, do not get discouraged. The smaller dosages work, they just take longer.
Compared to the prescibed medicines the BHT works much quicker and is much safer. In fact there is substantial evidence that BHT taken in the dosages we are discussing is in fact good for you. That PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article shows an average lifespan increase of between 22% and 31% for mice dosed with BHT for their entire lifetimes. I know of NO other compound that can claim that. NONE, period. So, I want you to stop being afraid, you are going to get through this and be truly cured of hepatitis C using the BHT. I was very sick and so was January. We both felt well within a few weeks. Our livers were functioning well again though still infected with HCV. To achieve a true cure does take at least 2 years of daily dosing with the BHT. The BHT can keep the blood free of HCV viral particles. It can NOT uninfect a living liver cell. NOTHING out there can do that. BUT, every cell that makes up a person`s liver is a new cell in about one year. So, by keeping the blood free of intact viral particles, eventually a true cure is achieved. That is why you and so many others using the interferon and ribaviron treatments relapse. This is not going to happen with the BHT if you continue taking it even after you get those: NO VIRUS DETECTED RESULTS.
This BHT has proven itself to be very effective in treating lipid enveloped viruses. Hepatitis C is very much a lipid enveloped virus. I had both hepatitis C and B. I now test negative for both those viruses using any test given including the antibodies and antigens tests. It truly is as if I had NEVER been infected. And I most definately was so infected. I had been tested and retested in 1997 and was positive. I had myself retested about a year later using the antibodies and antigens tests and still tested POSITIVE. I was retested in 2006 and now test NEGATIVE using the antibodies and antigens tests.
I am not asking you to have faith in me. I am telling you this BHT really does work because of the results of all those tests and the fact that it has worked and IS working for those others I have mentioned and linked to their statements. I do not know how long it will take for you to feel better. From the feedback I have gotten that should happen within 2 months. As far as getting tested goes: myself and others showed testable improvement in 1 month. For Dr. W it took 2 months. The same is true for Victoria. If you can get tested in one month, why not do so ? And again in another month if there is any doubt the BHT is working after the first test.
Now I want you to report whatever those test results are along with the dosage of BHT used and the genotype of HCV being treated. Do that for me. Let me also know of any side effects and I will do my best to help you. Again, most people have no side effects with the dosages I have discussed. I wish you well and to be well, ...Oscar
BHT
I need to keep repeating myself about this: That NO VIRUS DETECTED result does NOT mean you are cured of hepatitis C. It means there was no virus detected in your blood at the time the blood was drawn and tested. Without any doubt, your liver will still be full of infected cells that will burst and infect other liver cells if you stop taking the BHT. Simply keep taking the BHT. Because the liver completely renews itself about every year, if you keep your blood free of HCV virus particles, eventually a true cure is achieved with the use of BHT. I have achieved a true CURE for myself using BHT. I don`t know how many years that took. I would think at least two years of daily dosing with BHT. But, so what? As that PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article illustrates, there is very substantial evidence that BHT is good for you. An average lifespan increase of between 22% and 31% for mice dosed with BHT over their entire lifetimes compared to mice that were not dosed with the BHT is quite something. I know of NO other compound that can make such a claim, NONE.
This BHT really does work, ...Oscar

The reason for establishing this baseline is to allow for accurate tracking of your progress as in: liver function test results and viral load count test results. Without a baseline there is no way of answering those questions.
Now, I very much understand that for many people the cost of these tests is an important consideration.
For the sake of this discussion I will assume you wish to spend as little money as possible on testing. With that in mind those liver function tests are not that expensive and should be done as soon as possible. If you can afford it those viral load count tests should also be done as soon as possible. You want to know if this treatment is working or not.
From the feedback available: Many people have shown dramatic improvement in a few weeks, for others a few months. I will assume you want to see NORMAL LIVER FUNCTION and NO VIRUS detected results the first time tested. If that is your goal I would suggest being tested after 2 months of treatment with the BHT taken as I have discussed [ one 350mg capsule of BHT taken TWICE a day with a gulp of water on an empty stomach ]. This is assuming you experience no adverse side effects at that dosage. Every person is different and I can not say what is best for every person.
As a general rule: The sicker you are with hepatitis C the more carefully you have to monitor by testing what is happening with your liver. And each individual`s financial situation is an important factor. For all those reasons each person has to decide for themselves about such testing. If you can afford it, the more carefully, often this testing is done the better. I was tested once a week, but this was paid for by the VA because it was a service connected condition. My results were dramatic and I was testing: NO VIRUS DETECTED and liver fuction NORMAL in about one month using the BHT and nothing else....Oscar

I am not being paranoid. Please do carefully follow this discussion I had about this topic in another forum with this link: http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Hepatitis-C/My-mother-has-Hep-c-and-latent-TB/show/1559469
You will find that along with all the ridicule heaped upon me this statement by shakar: " My dad started BHT. Within 2 weeks, the viral load is down 50%. I will keep everyone posted about next pcr test. " That thread or conversation was closed by the moderator. Please read the entire thread to get some notion of what I have been up against.
shakar`s statement agrees with the results being achieved by those members of this forum who are giving the BHT treatment a try as a treatment for hepatitis C.
So what you may ask. This is what: This BHT really does work as a treatment for hepatitis C. The drug companies and the " SICK CARE " industry will lose many billions of dollars if this extremely inexpensive treatment becomes common knowledge. So, this is the sort of crap I am fighting and I do need forum members trying this treatment to report in with your test results.
Do read that thread and you will begin to understand why so very few people even know about this treatment after more than 14 years of effort by me. And fatcha brute`s statement sums up the reason`s why here: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?p=6967512Â
With those forum members who are giving the BHT treatment a try for hepatitis C`s feedback we can win this battle here in this forum. Most Sincerely, ...Oscar

The best thing we can do - is for those with hepatitis that find there way here - to give the BHT a try and report back if/when the viral load goes down, stays down and after a year or two if/when the hepatitis is no longer detected. People keep medical records. People have been kind of programmed to fear and not trust alternative things; but for the explorers here who will try and post feedback... Then others will try if they start seeing others succeed in healing too.
It is difficult because many people also want instant gratification and it's hard to stay disciplined for one or two years on any regimen. If it helped you Oscar and I've read a few other stories here, then keep on sharing and helping people. If I had hepatitis and there was no cure, I am the type that would try it; because I don't trust mainstream as being always the best answer. I just see a lot of wrong things and corruption. But I can understand the pessimism and distrust of others because we also live in a world where people sell snake oil. People see beautiful ads and buy the latest diet pill or this or that and find it didn't work and they are out money. It's too bad because then people become cynical and as protection won't accept new info out of the box even if it might be true.

make sure if you do remove them to have them taken out in the correct order (metal fillings all have different charges, and will have the most benefit if they are removed properly.

I hope it helps others. I dont know if it can help for Hep C. One bag lasts for 2 weeks. You 're looking at $50 an month. I have to stress that the tea must be made extra dark. I have a glass tea pot I put in the Microwave and then I put in the tea, let it sit over 2 tea candles for 2 to 3 hours.

BHT is a strong super-anti-oxidant, which -- just on its own -- is very anti-viral and will quickly reduce your viral load considerably as well as reduce AST and ALT levels in your blood. BHT kills both the Hep B and Hep C viruses in the same way as Lysine and Aspirin -- by hydrolysing and dissolving the outer viral envelope. This might be a useful addition to your protocol -- you can buy it over the internet.
You might also want to research Dr Berkson's simple liver therapy against Hep C. He uses mainly Alpha Lipoic Acid using IV and oral (300 mgs twice a day), with oral selenium(200 micrograms twice a day) and large dose Milk Thistle(900 mgs twice a day) against Hep C and he claims this protocol will prevent the necessity for a liver transplant by curing and getting rid of Hep C completely:
Hydrogen Peroxide
Regarding the toxicity of BHT to the liver: A Canadian health organization that looked at over 200 animal toxicology studies as to BHT gave BHT a NOEL [ No-Observed-Effect-Level ] of 25mg per kg of body weight per day. Here is a link to that report. You will need to scroll down to section 4. EVALUATION to read that NOEL and what it is based on here: http://www.inchem.org/documents/jecfa/jecmono/v35je02.htm
Now that works out to 1,250mg per day for a 110 pound person. Some people who discuss BHT as a treatment for viral diseases consider up to 1,000mg of BHT safe for most adults who do NOT have liver disease. You DO have liver disease. The good news is that: I was experiencing LIVER FAILURE when I began my BHT treatment for hepatitis C. I weigh 180 pounds now and did back in 1997 when I successfully treated my HCV infection using only 200mg of BHT per day. Also, this treatment worked very quickly for me. I was testing negative for hepatitis C with the hepatitis C RNA test within 4 weeks and my liver function tests were in the normal ranges in that 4 weeks. They did NOT have viral load count tests back in 1997 so I cannot provide such test results for that reason. I continue to take BHT daily and was told by the Veterans Administration in 2006 that there is NO indication I ever had hepatitis C or B at that time. I had been tested and retested for both infections in 1997 and was positive for both in 1997. I now test negative for both using the anti-bodies and antigens tests. A true CURE was achieved using only the BHT for me taken as I described: on an empty stomach using water to gulp the capsule down with, like you would any other pill....Oscar

Anyway fast forward to today. I ended up getting hep c virus from doing drugs. I had the virus for about 22 years. I am clean and sober now days but If I had half a brain when was younger well you know. As soon as I found out that I had hep c I gave up drinking, alcohol speeds up the replication of the virus.
I started taking bht 250 mg. Anyway I take it twice a day morning and at night 250 mg for a total of 500 mg.
Started bht in 2017. I started to feel better inside and out. I was able to get up off my couch and do things and was not sleeping my life away. My doctor wanted to check my hcv blood levels.
I just got the results back. quantitative test is 343,000 qualitative was Undetected Doctors usually consider a viral load over 800,000 IU/ml as high. A low viral load would be less than 800,000 IU/ml. If a quantitative test indicates undetectable viral particle levels, but the qualitative test detects HCV, it means that a person has extremely low levels of HCV in the bloodstream.
The numbers are looking very good and I will keep up with my bht treatment. I am not taking anything else but D3 and Calcium and zinc.
I take zinc to boost my immune system. Also I read online that drinking coffee will help your liver function better and it stops the hep c virus from replicating. Also when I feel a cold coming on I take some vitamin c. Almost forgot the most important thing to take, drink lot's of water.
I just wanted to say hang in there everyone.
