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.

I spent a long time looking into the different metabolites of BHT. It is these metabolites of BHT that enter the bloodstream. These metabolites are altered molecules of BHT and are no longer BHT. These different metabolites do maintain the basic structure of BHT. A six carbon ring with those two tert-buty groups. Some oxygen atoms are added either at one or more of those tertiary hydrogen atoms or at the methyl group or both of those events.
Those toxicology reports I have reffered to in some of my postings discuss all this. The BHT has to be altered in such ways as to make it SOMEWHAT water soluble. These reports discuss routes of metabolism. Oxygen atoms are added in a number of different ways to the BHT molecule to make it water soluble. The carboxyl group is one of the groups most often discussed. The carboxyl group is acidic and reactive. It can and will chemically combine with such compounds as silymarin [ a major component of milk thistle ] because silymarin possesses a carbonyl group. Silymarin is about 5 times larger than than a BHT molecule. This combined BHT/silymarin molecule is far too large to penetrate those lipid containing viral coatings and thereby renders the BHT metabolites ineffective. The BHT no longer works as an antiviral. Those BHT metabolites need to seek out [ due to their relatively lipophyllic nature ] and then penetrate those viral coatings. And when embedded in those viral coatings move about very rapidly because of the different oxygen atoms of the different metabolites always seeking but never acheiving permanent HYDROGEN BONDS. It is a straight forward means of destroying these viral coatings. Once the viral coatings are gone the foreign proteins that make up the core of these viruses are readily attacked by the bodie`s defense mechanisms. White blood cells and such. A beautiful, simple means of destroying these viruses. Not only much safer than conventional treatments but actually good for you because of BHT`s free radical scavaging properties if taken in proper dosages.
I am giving you one example of what I am talking about. I have NO idea of what the different compounds are that make up all these different teas are. Does anyone? And that is why I am convinced: The best way to take BHT is by itself, alone. Not only at the time of ingestion, but alone. Not mixed with other supplemental treatments. Just eat a healthy diet. An occassional vitamin C and vitamin B-complex pill does not seem to screw up the process and may be helpful. I really do NOT know with any certainty about even those vitamins.
Now some exercise is also important. You need to keep things moving inside you. It is also helpful to drink enough good quality water to maintain healthy hydration. I use distilled water. Those are my recommenations....Oscar

Oscar, after a bit of BHT treatment do you think in your opinion it would be productive to use the chinese herbs? Is there any vitamins or supplements that would enhance the BHT performance? Like the olive oil is there any other protective measures you have found to safeguard other organs or body funtions? Is the correct or best time to use the ev olive oil an hour after taking the bht or just a minimum time period not to be counter productive in the bht therapy? Thanks again...Dave

In view of the probable involvement of hepatic enzyme induction in the development of the hepatocellular damage associated with repeated doses of BHT, the Committee concluded that, in this case, enzyme induction was the most sensitive index of effects on the liver. A well-defined threshold was demonstrated at 100 mg/kg bw/day in the long-term study reviewed for the first time at this meeting, giving a NOEL of 25 mg/kg bw/day. Effects observed in the reproduction segments of the in utero/lifetime exposure studies were also taken into account in the derivation of this NOEL. The Committee used a safety factor of 100 to allocate an ADI of 0-0.3 mg/kg bw for BHT.
This statement is section 4. EVALUATION and is located at the end of this report just before the long list of referenced studies. Here is a link to this very long and detailed toxicology report:
http://www.inchem.org/documents/jecfa/jecmono/v35je02.htm
Also, there is this PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article that discusses different anti-oxidants and the mice that had BHT included in their diets over their entire lifetimes lived on average 22% to 31% longer than the mice that did not have BHT included in their diets.
From that table you can link to the FULL TEXT of that article to learn what that is all about. Those are the two most informative reports about BHT that I am aware of.
Having said all that some people do report some adverse reactions to BHT including: an undesirable nervous reaction similar to drinking too much coffee. Some stomach discomfort. Dizziness. Most people have no reaction or very mild side effects if any. I do suggest starting out with no more than one 350mg of BHT per day for a few days. And if any side effects are felt to lower the dosage. When and if you are comfortable with that, you may wish to try two seperate dosages per day or every other day. You have to find out what you are comfortable with as far as dosage goes if you choose to give the BHT a try. Also, the BHT treatment seems to work best when NOT mixed with other alternative treatments and this includes milk thistle and its extracts. Now I made the effort to address your concerns as best I can. If you do choose to give the BHT a try I do ask you to report your results here in this EARTH CLINIC forum.
And there is this BHT CURES group you may wish to join to be in touch with other people using the BHT treatment here: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/BHTcures/

So which research do you believe?
The next level of validation would seem to be just to go and read actual testimonials of people who have cured themselves or have had good outcomes from using BHT in small quantities on a daily basis against Hep C. EC is jam packed with successful testimonials of people using BHT. However, not everyone can resolve their Hep C using BHT. But it is definitely worth a try.
If you would rather not use the BHT protocol, other protocols you can investigate, which have few side effects, are Ted from Bangkok's remedy for Hep C shown here:
Ted's remedy for Hep C just uses L-Lysine, aspirin and Vitamin C.
Another simple protocol with few side-effects -- the Berkson Triple Anti-Oxidant Protocol -- is also very effective against the Hep C virus. Type "Berkson Hepatitis C" in Google Search to read all about it. Meanwhile here is Dr Berkson actually talking about his protocol for Hep C, Cirrhosis, liver cancer and pancreatic cancer in an interview:
Here is some research results on the Berkson Protocol:
Treatment of Chronic Hep C virus via Anti-Oxidants: Results of Phase 1 clinical trial
A Conservative Triple Anti-Oxidant approach to the Treatment of Hep C
Dr Berkson simply uses Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA), Milk Thistle, Selenium and N-Acetyl Cysteine(NAC) as the basic oral therapy with additional B complex and Vitamin C support. And when he adds Low Dose Naltrexone(LDN) to this therapy he has obtained succesful cancer remissions in patients with pancreatic and liver cancer as well (which are incurable using standard chemo techniques). For more serious cases, Dr Berkson also recommends taking ALA by IV for certain periods in his protocol to improve outcomes. His clinic is based in New Mexico.

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

Viral Load
Both my tests were done w/ COBRA (R) AmpliPrep TagMan ® HCV Test Kit (Roach Molecular System. Inc)
The first test [=HCV RNA PCR QUANT out of range 2110000, reference range <43 IU/mL
HCV RNA PCR OUANT out of range 6.32H.. Reference range <1.63 LogIU/mL.
SECOND TEST:
HCV RNA PCR QUANT... out of range 837930 IU/mL...reference range(43
HCV RNA PCR Quant ... Out of range 5.92 log IU/mL....reference range (1.63
I believe it mentioned Genome 1????.. not that that matters.
Are the numbers, the raw numbers that mean what they say, or do you need to multiply something x something to get the vl number? Or to compare them?
I will not post again unless the the viral load reaches non detectable levels.
My original post where I said the c was totally gone was supposition that the warts were gone... they worked on the same premise, and a friend went from 6 mil VL to non detectable. Using bht. So I knew it worked but was a bit over zealous. But down by half ain't chopped liver!
All in all, I'll keep on BHT, perhaps take a few other things W/ BHT

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.
Ted, We are not clear on the lysine/aspirin protocol please explain better, Thank you, Curtis
BHT
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.
BHT
I notice that when I do take it. my eyes become red and I'm tired for the day..
If I take it at night, I take the entire 700mg with 16 oz of H20.. In the morning. I'm very tired for the first few hours upon waking even with 8 hrs of sleep.. After that time I'm okay. But my eyes are periodically red thru out the day.. Could I be allergic to this antioxidant? I hear that it should not have side effects at this dose.. I even took it at 350mg per day and get the same red eyes and tired feeling.. Any clues? should I be supplementing with Vit C or B? does this antioxidant deplete certain nutirent stores?
"Early symptoms of hepatitis C often resemble the flu. Hepatitis C symptoms include fatigue, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, nausea, fever and dark urine. Jaundice, yellowing of the skin and eyes, may also occur. Symptoms of hepatitis C are fairly mild during the initial stages of infection." This is from: http://getstdtested.com/hepatitis-c-symptoms
It does not matter where you read something it always pays to do more checking if it is new to you or your gut says I'm not sure about that. Sometimes we posters may not have the whole answer or have a bias for certain remedies or we think that there is one cause of a symptom when there actually may be more. We post because we care. All the best in finding your path to help.

Hopefully, as time goes by, his kidney function will improve also. Now there are important diffferences between the liver and the kidneys. Simply put: The liver is constantly and rapidly producing new cells and the kidneys do not do so in such a rapid manner.
Do NOT get discouraged. I have some experience to draw on here. As I mentioned earlier in one of my postings: I lost my right kidney along with most of my liver due to a rather severe gunshot wound. I was told by the surgeon who operated on me that: 1. I had lost most of my liver. The entire lower lobe. BUT that my liver would renew itself and be pretty much normal if I did not die from complications. And 2. I had lost my entire right kidney also, but that: My left kidney would get bigger to compensate for the loss of the right kidney and I could live a very much normal life with only one kidney if I did not die of complications.
My point is that: If your uncle`s liver can recover from this hepatitis C infection there is good reason to believe his kidneys can also recover also given time. I expect this bloating you have discussed may be the result of kidney failure along with liver failure. What have his doctors said about this ?
At least his kidney function has not gotten any worse at this time and his liver has shown very significant improvement. He has only been on the BHT treatment 3 weeks. It does take some time for these large organs to heal themselves and to show improvement in function.
In conclusion: Stick with the BHT regemine you are using because it is working. It takes time for these large organs to heal. Also I do recommend one cup of PURE cranberry juice per day for people experiencing kindney problems. It is an excellent kidney flush, it cleanses the kidneys. Do not overdue it. More is NOT better....Oscar

Also: It almost always takes many years before a hepatitis C infection reaches the point where people's livers begin to fail. So if you find out any of your family is infected: You and they are not at the point of liver failure and some daily dosing with the BHT should ensure that you and they NEVER will be.
This is not based on wishful thinking. BHT's ability to effectively treat many lipid coated viruses was established back in the 1970s and 1980s. And, hepatitis C is very much a lipid coated virus. It really is sad that all that research has been ignored by the medical establishment as much as it has. Anyway, wishing you and your family well. I very much hope none of you are infected. But try not to get freaked if some are. This BHT really does work....Oscar

I am writing you this post becuase in the event that I am diagnosed with it I WILL try your BHT treatment and I WILL repost on the effects. If I, or none of my family, have the virus I will still try to get my fiance's Ex to try the BHT. I have never liked the asshole much.... He chose drugs over his own children. I have been their male figure and raising and supporting them, but being faced with the possability of having the virus myself makes me feel for him. This might be his eye-opener to how precious life and his children are.
If he agrees to take the BHT I will also re-post on how well it works for him. I cannot explain to you how relieved I am to read your posts Oscar, they have given me hope that even if I do have the virus, I will be able to treat and possibly cure myself. Keep up the good work man! I will be praying for everyone on here as well as me and my own, That we do not have it, and that whoever does is cured! Will update when I have more info.... take care.

Thanks to Oscar for posting his story about using BHT and I'll share mine as time goes on.
I first started using the BHT in 1997 because I was sick with the hepatitis C, but my blood tests also indicated I had been exposed to hepatitis B. In 2006 I was told by the VA [ Veterans Administration ] there is NO indication from the blood tests done at that time: That I had ever been exposed to hepatitis C or hepatitis B.
Also, hepatitis B is very much a lipid coated virus the same as hepatitis C is. The evidence is that BHT is an effective treatment for a very many lipid coated viruses. So, in my opinion: The BHT works very well for hepatitis B also. If you choose to give the BHT a try I would very much appreciate you posting the results of your use of BHT to treat hepatitis B. From the feedback available at this time: For average size adults, one 200mg to 350mg of BHT taken twice a day on an empty stomach with a gulp of water is what works best. I very much advise NOT mixing the BHT with any other supplements at the time it is ingested. Wait at least one hour before taking any other medicines to prevent undesired interactions that will occur in the stomach and duodenum. Just wait one hour before taking anything else other than water. Wishing you the best, a return to good health, ...Oscar

Anyway I am beginning to feel better after four days and get very excited about this. I know I will have some downs to go with the ups but I feel it will be more ups. Three yers ago the task of putting a dress mirror on the wall was very overwhelming. Last summer I did not have the energy to use the weed whacker over 30' of distance and got very exhausted. This year I managed to spend 3 hours clearing snow with my electric 16" snow snow thrower and felt pretty good. That is a big improvement over last year of being overwhelmed at the task. I will be posting my good results as the time goes by.
Thank you Oscar for your help, you are a life saver and my wife is grateful as well.

You have been living with this disease for a long time now. This treatment does work and you are getting better. Also, there is very good reason for you to anticipate a full recovery in spite of the liver damage you discussed. The liver has a very remarkable ability to recover from even severe damage once the cause of this damage is eliminated as in a hepatis C infection. Once the new cells are no longer becoming infected, thanks to the BHT treatments the liver recovers.
Now I want you and everyone else out there to know: A true CURE is achievable with daily dosing with BHT for at least 2 years. If you tolerate the BHT well you need to keep taking it to achieve this true cure. I don`t know how many years, only that it happens eventually. It did for me. I know this because I was asked by the VA why I had checked that I had tested positive for both hepatitis C and B in a questionaire I filled out when I moved to a new VA regional facility. I was told they tested me again and that I showed NO sign I had ever been infected with both the HCV and the HBV. I told the person questioning me that I had been tested and restested in Boston and was positive for both in 1997 and was diagnosed as having hepatitis C with a failing liver. This person did NOT believe me UNTIL I guided her back to those medical records from Boston. She did not know what to make of it because this was unheard of and she attributed it to SPONTANIOUS RECOVERY.
It is because of the BHT treatments and nothing else. I was NEVER given any treatment by the VA. This BHT really does work.
Thank you so very much for your feedback, ...Oscar

I have the website bookmarked of where to get BHT(posted from you above). He is about 180lbs as well so about 350 should be good for him. I am also going to try having him take milk thistle and grapefruit juice everyday.

I can't afford to have my bloodwork weekly or monthly, so I don't know when the next time I will get it. However, when I do, I will post any changes.
I want to clear up that I am not as large as it sounds in my description. As a matter of fact, being 6'5" I appear underweight to some people. But I am going to monitor closely the impact of the BHT regimine. As of now, I have had no negative symptons (that I can tell).
I to would have liked to see more people who have had positive responses to post them across the various websites. But what can you do! It is like the 10 leapers that Jesus healed, only 1 came back to say thank you.

I want you and your uncle to know this BHT worked for me very well when I was in a state of liver failure. It did take about 4 weeks for my liver function tests to return to normal readings. I have only one kidney. I also have and had a very damaged liver. I lost my right kidney and most of my liver as the result of a really bad gunshot wound in Vietnam. What is left of my liver is now where that right kidney used to be. So I also was up against it so to speak with this hepatitis C and now have no indication I was ever infected with HCV and also hepatitis B that I also became infected with as a result of the many blood transfusions at the time of this gunshot wound [ 1968 ]. The only treatment I ever used was this BHT treatment.
So do not get discouraged. This BHT stuff really does work. With your uncle this requires carefull attention to liver function test results and adjusting the BHT dosage accordingly. Also, I see no harm in taking milk thistle as long as it is taken seperately, not at the same time as the BHT. As long as you do NOT take large doses of it....Oscar

I think there is a lot of confusion as to how BHT works. BHT can NOT uninfect an infected liver cell in the way antibiotics work with bacterial infections. Viral infections are much harder to treat. What BHT can do is insure that the bloodstream remains free of intact viral particles and thereby prevent any uninfected liver cells from becoming infected. But because the liver is constantly creating new liver cells as the old and or infected ones die off, eventually a true cure occurs. That does take years of daily dosing with BHT. But a return to good health can often be realized in a matter of a few weeks or a few months depending on how infected a person`s liver is.
With as little as 10% of the liver functioning properly NO symptums will be detected. This was explained to me by the surgeon who treated me for a gunshot wound that removed two thirds of my liver along with my right kidney.
Anyway, this BHT really does work. It takes longer for some than others. Dramatic positive results are often shown in a matter of only a few weeks for many, for others a few months.
Thank you very much for your encouragement. I DO NEED SOME, now and then....Oscar

You seem to be in reasonably good health and are a large man, so the 350mg capsules of BHT taken twice a day should be well in the safe zone as to dosage. Also, because you are a large person it does seem to me that 2 tablespoons of olive oil would be advisable as a means of preventing any possible negative impact on lipid sructures such as nerve sheathing.
Because you are a large person: If and only if no significant improvement is shown a larger dose of BHT may be required. I do think the two capsules of 350mg of BHT will be enough. If no significant improvement is shown go to a third 350mg capsule of BHT every other day. Please keep this forum informed as to your results.
Also, I can NOT give any advice as to taking the prescribed treatments. Some people DO respond well to them. Others do not. Perhaps giving the BHT a couple of months trial before trying these other treatments will work very well. You have had hepatitis C for a long time now so I do not see any compelling reason for getting started immediately on some new treatment that might harm you. But this is a descision you have to make for yourself....Oscar

Now I want to tell you that since reading your posts last week that I stumbled upon, I am very excited about this BHT therapy. My symptoms now are a pain in my right lower side more than not. I run out of energy very fast and get a lot of bloating which seems to pinch my liver between my stomach and my ribs and nod off a lot in the afternoon. I weigh 205lbs and get lots of body aches. For those living in Canada I would like to add that in Montreal there is a company called UNIPEX SOLUTIONS that sell food grade BHT. I hope I am allowed to say that because I received my order from VRP and was charged $20.00 shipping on a $6.95 bottle.
Anyway I took one 350 mg cap yesterday at 3:30pm and the side effects were a little to strong. Unbalanced, anxiety, and nervousness. So I split one cap at 7.30am this morning and another at 2.30pm and the side effects were there but not as strong and only last a couple of hours. I can notice the difference already, I have more energy and the pain in my lower right side seems to be subsiding. My body aches are less as well and this is only a day and a half into it. Once the side effects diminish I will go up to 350mg and see how that goes. I am sure I will have more positive things to post the next time.
Oscar, I want to thank you so much for the good thing you have done for us. I am sure this will get better and better as more people self medicate.

I am 51 and have probably had Hep C since I was 16, I contacted Hep B then from needles and the Dr.'s could never get my liver levels straight at that point. I believe it was called non A non B Hep. back then. I have stage 3 cirrhosis, did my interferon ribaviron treatment at Duke for a year and it came right back, and was told after liver biopsy that I had stage 3 cirrhosis.
I have a year's supply of BHT, scared big brother will find out and some how stop the availability of it. I HAVE HOPE!!! Fatty food, red meat mainly would ruin me for days and I had a nice steak the other night with no liver pain period. I will check back in and thanks to everyone that post on here. I have gotten so much positive information as well as just knowing there are others in the same situation.

I started about a week ago on 350 mg capsules from VRP twice a day on empty stomach and take either 1 Tablespoon of EV Olive Oil or Nutive Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, one hour after taking BHT.
I have HCV type 1b, last VL Count 275,000 (highest it has ever been) over the decades I have had HCV. I got it from Military, Vietnam Era back in 1970, even though they reject the notion it was from them (VA). For awhile I would be diagnosed as Non AB and no one knew what that was.
My ALTs remain steady averaging 125 and AST remain steady averaging 60.
I was diagnosed with liver chirottic in nature, no ascites, negative on the last EGD, slightly enlarged spleen, slightly elevated iron, somewhat low platelet count (averaging 125 and it has been this level as far back as the medical records I have). All else seems to be fine.
I have not had a biopsy yet as VA said it is not necessary and that the complications are high.
The VA wanted and still is trying to get me to go on the Treatments, especially with the new 3rd drug they added. I am 58, 6'5", 225 lbs, and other than HCV, I think I am pretty healthy. The VA said I would be a good candidate for elimination of the virus since it continues to be what they consider low, even though I am a black male, over 40, with type 1b. I don't feel comfortable about this option.
Your opinion on if there is any negative potential of me also having started the 3 type treatment of Dr. Berkston (Milk Thistle, Selenium, ALA). Is there any potential conflict on the results by doing them both, that you are aware of? I do not do anything within 1 hour before or after BHT.
I am not online very often but I finally decided to try this thread. Please be patient if I do not get back on very often. I do check from time to time and read as much as I can. I forgot to mention, I did try acupuncture for awhile and my platelet count increased to 140 for a short time but insurance does not cover it so I had to stop. I also take pharmaceutical grade Vitamin C at 2.5-5.0 grams.

Three weeks ago his labs were as follows, ALT-62, ALK203, AST119. Creatinine 1.45, and BUN 40. This week after nine days of taking BHT once a day 350mg his labs are ALT-73, ALK158, AST-126, Creat-1.46, and BUN 39. Most are really unchanged but the ALK is 25% lower than three weeks ago. I'm not sure if that is because of the BHT or because of the filtered water he is now drinking, or chamomile tea he is drinking. I read on here chanca piedra is good for the kidneys but we haven't tried that yet. And do you think milk thistle could help now as well? About the paracentesis- he is going to go ahead and do that because it is necessary because he is so bad off. I don't know if we should be excited about the ALK at 158 or not. What do you think?

Now as to increasing his BHT dosage: If and only if no improvement is shown in his liver function tests since he began using the BHT treatment increase the dosage of BHT to: one 350mg of BHT TWICE a day every other day and see if there is improvement in his liver function tests at that dosage.
Now you also mentioned that your uncle is having kidney trouble. Obviously this is another serious condition. And is an additional reason to proceed with caution with the BHT treatment. This is another reason for taking as little of the BHT as is necessary to effect improvement in his liver function.
On a note of encouragement: I weigh about the same as your uncle [ 190 pounds ]. Also, I have and had only one kidney when I successfully treated my hepatitis C infection with the use of low dose BHT treatments back in 1997. Keep in touch with me in this forum with any and all test results. I am hoping some improvement will be shown in his next liver function tests. If no improvement is shown: Then go ahead and increase the dosage to: one 350mg capsule of BHT Twice a day, every other day and let us see how that works. I am very concerned because your uncle is as sick as he is and want to proceed with a great deal of caution regarding the BHT treatments.
Also: Is your uncle now taking one of the different interferon treatments or not? I expect he is but do not know that. I am NOT saying he should not be, I simply want to know all I can as to what is going on with him. I very much want to see him get well and will do my best to provide helpful information. Because of his kidney problems I do suggest he take: one cup of pure cranberry juice [ NOT some cranberry juice cocktail ] per day. This cranberry juice is a well know means of cleansing the kidneys.

My most immediate concern is how sick is your Uncle? Also: How old is he? Does he have other health concerns such as any sort of heart problems?
From what little you have told me: He does not appear to be suffering any serious side effect with the use of BHT. Being tired and such is a common if not universal effect of having hepatitis C along with many other symptoms also.
That 350mg dosage once per day should be a safe dosage. Stay with that for now. He has only been taking the BHT for nine days. This BHT treatment does take some time before people start to feel better. Even for those who respond very well to the BHT treatment a few weeks of treatment are required before noticable improvement is experienced. The liver is constantly producing new cells. The way this treatment works is by preventing any uninfected cells from becoming infected. This allows for enough healthy cells to come into existence to allow for normal liver function. This does take at least a few weeks for people experiencing liver failure.
Also: How much does your uncle weigh? Is he a thin or lean person? Is he having any liver function tests being done? This hepatitis C is a life threatening disease. He should be having liver function tests being done to track said liver function on a weekly basis if possible.
The first goal with this BHT treatment is to achieve healthy liver function. It took me about 4 weeks of BHT treatment to get there and I was experiencing liver failure. Now for you and everyone else out there: Achieving normal liver function results does NOT mean you are cured. That requires years of daily dosing with BHT.
The reason why that is true is because: Any person can have normal liver function with as little as 10% of the liver functioning properly. You need to keep taking the BHT for at least 2 years and probably more than that to ensure there are no infected cells left.
BHT can NOT uninfect a living liver cell. BHT taken on a daily basis can ensure that no uninfected cells become infected. And it does follow that: If no new cells become infected a true CURE is achieved eventually because every cell that makes up any person`s liver is a new cell about every year or so.
It is NOT the same as taking an antibiotic for some bacterial infection.
From the little you have told me I suggest your uncle keep taking only one 350mg per day of BHT and let's see if he shows some improvement or not and take it from there. Any information you can provide as to his weight, liver function and such will be helpful....Oscar

People do not become symptomatic until their livers are thoroughly infected with this viral disease. The sort of improvement these people describe is significant especially when such improvement is shown after such short periods of treatment as described by these people.
Yes, it is very important to address the problems some people experience with this treatment. And there is every reason to beleive it takes longer for some than others. How could it be otherwise? But some positive feedback from those experiencing improvement is very important also. Thank all of you for reporting into this forum with these very positive initial responses to the use of BHT as a treatment for hepatitis C....Oscar

I do feel better, digestion seems to be working better, better appetite and general feeling well. My family says I even look better. I have also gained a little weight back 5 or 10 pounds.

So, if you tried this treatment and have some positive results to report it is time for you to say so. If not, I am getting very reluctant to continue promoting it. I have no desire to cause anyone any sort of discomfort for no good reason.
So, like I said: If this treatment is working for you say so. Otherwise I am through with all this. The only people reporting in are those experiencing problems and if that is all anyone is willing to discuss I am tired of it all. It is up to you if you wish to try BHT or not. If people are having good results this forum and I need to hear from you....Oscar

From the many toxicology reports I have read: BHT and its metabolites accumulate in fat tissues. So: The less fat tissue you have the less BHT is required to achieve the desired results and to take more BHT than is desired does result in undesired side effects. You want to keep the blood free of intact viral particles, but not to leach the essential lipid stuctures of the required lipids. I do suggest any lean or thin person to include at least 2 tablespoons of olive oil per day in their diets while using this treatment. It is very important that this olive oil or any other oil be taken seperately from the BHT and not to be mixed with the BHT. Wait at least one hour before ingesting any oil or fat after taking the BHT to insure that the BHT and it`s metabolites seek out those lipid coated viruses. This BHT treatment does work. The details as to how best use this treatment ARE being worked out thanks to your feedback and that of others also.
I do think the side effects your friend Daniel had is the result of a depletion of the lipids that make up the sheathing of nerve cells, very much like the sort of problems that occur with electrical wires that have inadequate plastic sheathing. Electrical current spill over, and shorted circuits. In fact: the chemical makeup of the sheathing of electrical wires is very much the same chemical makeup of nerve sheathing: A very high hydrocarbon content.
So, in conclusion: Thin and or lean people generally need and desire less BHT to acheive the desired result: The destruction of lipid coated viruses. And, this includes an adequate source of high quality lipids such as olive oil will go a long ways in preventing side effects....Oscar

I am rethinking all this dosage stuff. I very much believe in taking the smallest effective dosage. If a small dosage works why take more ? I care so very much about everyone. I never want to cause harm to others unless are out to hurt me.
But this hepatits C is a life threatening disease and doing nothing to treat it is NOT any sort of an answer, is it ? So, in conclusion to this posting: Have Daniel try the 1/16 of a teaspoon of BHT per day with a gulp of water and let us see how he responds to that. It may very well be the correct dosage for him. Please update this forum with any test results....Oscar

From the very limited feedback available at this time: one 350mg capsule of BHT taken twice a day with a gulp of water is safe and effective for most adult people. Also, thin and lean people seem to be those likely to have side effects. They require and desire less BHT, smaller dosages.
I very much advise thin and lean people to include at least 2 tablespoons of olive oil in their diets, taken seperately from the BHT. Waiting at least one hour after taking the BHT before taking that olive oil. This taking this olive oil is to insure an adequate source of high quality lipids.
I very much need feedback from the forum members using the BHT for hepatitis C treatment. All of the other over 150 million people of the world infected with hepatitis C need this feedback.
I know there are people out there dedicated to discrediting this effective treatment. This treatment works. And all thesse issues can be addressed here in this forum with feedback....Oscar

That dosage again is 350mg of BHT taken twice a day on an empty stomach with a gulp of water. Now once those viral load counts are down to: NO VIRUS DETECTED, I do think that one 350mg per day is an adequate dosage for the long term and see no reason to take more than that unless the virus shows up in some future test.
So try not to get all bummed out about this. This BHT actually does work for those willing to give it a fair try, meaning at least 6 months. Usually significant progress is shown in a few weeks, but for some people it takes a few months. Stay in touch with this forum and keep us up to date with any test results. Sincerely, ...Oscar

I wish to ask you if you are using the BHT as a treatment for hepatitis C or some other viral disease? If so which one ? Feedback from you and other members of this here forum is the ONLY way these questions will ever be answered because NO other forum has taken a serious interest in this and big pharma and the different governments have shown NO interest in this important treatment. They seem very determined to suppress or discredit this life saving information. I have been at this for 14 years now and that IS my conclusion. This BHT stuff really does work as an anti-viral for many of the worst viruses out there....Oscar

Yes, this BHT is very effective as a treatment for hepatitis C. BUT, using a safe dosage is very important. Please tell your friend to lower the dosage as soon as you can. More is NOT better. ANY and all trying this treatment need to find a dosage they are comfortable with. They need to start with small dosages and work up to NO more than 700mg of BHT taken in two seperate dosages per day for average size adults.
This dosage issue is very important. BHT is a powerful antioxidant. Crap, I get frightened when people start buying it in bulk and start guessing as to the dosage being used based on what ? Like I said: that 1/4 teaspoon is probably at least 1,000mg. I say that because I just poured a 350mg capsule of BHT into a 1 teaspoon measuring spoon and that is my very rough estimate.
Please report back to this forum and tell me you informed your friend that he or she is taking too much BHT. Do that for me. Also, there is no need to mix the BHT with water. If purchased in bulk you can simply lick it off a teaspoon and take a gulp of water to wash it down. This is an issue I had not anticipated. I can not tell anyone what a dosage works out as in teaspoons. It is MUCH LESS than 1/4 of a teaspoon....Oscar

First off, thank you so much for bringing to light the BHT remedy for Hep-C. My friend who is now 40 received it when he still lived in what was the former Yugoslavia. Two years ago he did the one year treatment of interferon. Apart from great suffering and loss of work, it gave no benefit.
BHT can't be bought in Israel, so what I did is contact a company that formulates feed additives for animals. They use the BHT as a preservative. They gave 500gr free of charge because they buy in tons and half a kilo is nothing for them. It also came with a COA from the Chinese manufacturer stating a purity of 99.95%.
So he is taking a quarter of a teaspoon every day stirred in water (not-soluble). At first he felt as if he was floating - like a drug effect. Then he began to have temper moods. He will try it for 3 months and then have a blood sample analyzed. It costs $315 for a virus count. We will update when the time comes. So have given this info if someone can't find BHT they should approach a formulator in their region.
BHT
I am not a doctor and therefore cannot speak with the authority of an MD. BUT: I do know a lot about the use of BHT to treat hepatitis C and other conditions. I obviously cannot promise a successful outcome for your uncle. Who can with someone suffering three life threatening conditions?
BHT therapy may be the ONLY hope left for him.
1. BHT is an effective treatment for hepatitis C.
2. BHT does not harm the liver or kidneys in the dosages I have been discussing.
3. There is substantial evidence that BHT at the very least prevents cancer. That evidence is based on Dr. Denham Harman`s mice studies and that of others also. It is worth noting that in Dr. Harman`s studies that the mice he used in some of his earliest studies had a propensity for getting cancer and that with those cancer prone mice: an average lifespan increase of between 45% and 50% was achieved. Dr. Harman`s critics were those that critised his studies BECAUSE the mice he was dosing with BHT had a propensity for getting cancer and stated that ALL he was doing was preventing those mice from getting cancer and that is what accounted for this dramatic average lifespan increase.
Very many other such studies have been done with mice and other mammals by a very many others. The results of those studies show an average lifespan increase in mice dosed with BHT over their entire lifetimes of between 22% and 31% as discussed in this PHYSIOLOGICOL REVIEWS article: http://physrev.physiology.org/content/87/4/1175/T3.expansion.html
So, there is a whole lot of evidence available that BHT has a lot going for it, and that it is relatively safe taken in the dosages I have been discussing. 200mg to 1,000mg of BHT per day taken with a gulp of water on an empty stomach.
Because your uncle is as sick as he is: I do suggest he start out with no more than one 350mg capsule of BHT per day and see how he responds to this treatment. I also suggest that simple test I have discussed in the past: open up a capsule and empty the contents onto a small dish. Then lick your finger and daub it onto the BHT crystals and lick those BHT crystals off that finger. In your Uncle`s case I recommend waiting at least 2 hours to check for any adverse reaction. Also, I do highly recommend that 2 tablespoons of olive oil be taken seperately from the BHT, not at the same time, waiting at least 2 hours before or after BHT dosing. Your uncle is very sick and every precaution needs to be taken. Please report into this forum as to how your uncle responds to this treatment if he chooses to try it....Oscar

My question is do you think the BHT would work for him since he is pretty bad off? Today he just got labs done today and his liver enzymes are high. Alt-62, ALK203, AST-119. Renal panel, Creatinine 145, BUN-40. All of his other labs are fine at this moment in time. What do you think. Do you think he is a candidate for BHT?
BHT
There was a lot of interest and awareness about BHT as a treatment for any and all lipid coated viruses back in the 1980s and 1990s. That awareness has by and large disappeared. Also, I did dig up that toxicology statement, that gives BHT a NOEL [ no-observered-effects-level ] of what works out to 1, 250mg of BHT per day for a 110 pound person. And also that PHYSIOLOGICAL REVIEWS article that shows a 22% to 31% average lifespan increase in mice dosed with BHT over their entire lifetimes compared to undosed mice.
Those two extremely well researched statements put the lie to all this crap people grab onto about how bad BHT is supposed to be for people. And then it was proved that BHT occurred naturally in at least some phytoplankton. That was always another lie used to discredit BHT. It was supposedly unnatural and therefore bad for you.
So, at the very least: BHT is good for you taken in the dosages myself and others have been discussing for many years now and there is significant evidence growing that indeed it is a very powerful anti-viral for lipid coated viruses of many types including hepatitis C and the AIDS virus.
And if you dare to discuss BHT as an effective treatment in many of these forums they will come up with some reason to ban you and delete your postings. Yes this BHT really does work. And it is long past the time people should have been looking into just how well it does work. It is truly amazing stuff especially when compared to the conventional treatments that seem to always include some variation of interferon. Read the postings in these forums about the devasting results many people experience with these treatments.
They cost many thousands of dollars per year per person and do NOT work very well for a very many of those people. And a very many relapse within a few years if they do work. You understand what I am talking about. I could go on and on....Oscar

Any postings concerning successful alternate treatments are immediately banned from most forums. These places are always directly funded by big-pharma as "educational" sites, or indirectly supported by them through ad revenue.
I fully agree with the Gerson mention that all chronic diseases are a result of a mix between Mal-nutrition and toxicity. It's been my experience that removing both will result in immediate health improvements, no matter what the underlying problem in. This is a huge threat to certain medical conglomerates.

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.

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

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
BHT
Thanks for the feedback, I do have one other question, in your opinion, how long should I keep taking the BHT before I have my first blood test? I haven't been tested since the initial diagnosis 3 years ago. I will also post all results when I receive them.
BHT
Also, in my opinion: taking a high or good quality source of lipids such as salmon oil is a good idea as long as it is taken at least one hour before or after taking the BHT. Mixing BHT with ANY oil severely dilutes BHT`s desired effect as another forum member found out. Simply take it seperately, not at the same time. The importance of this is because all oils and fats are digested in way similar to the BHT. When you mix BHT with any oil you are in effect diluting it.
Also, in my opinion: When BHT is taken at the same time with other compounds, unpredictable chemical reactions take place in the stomach and duodenum between the BHT and other compounds. That is why I am so adamant about taking the BHT seperately, by itself and on an empty stomach with a gulp of water only. This method seems to be working well for others out there giving BHT a try as a treatment for hepatitis C.
And, from the feedback available at this time: Taking two capsules of BHT seems to be what works best if you have no adverse side effects with those two daily doses of BHT. One dose per day works very well, but two doses seems to work better. The dosages I am discussing are between 200mg and 350mg of BHT taken twice a day if no significant adverse effects are noted and one dose per day if adverse effects are experienced. The one dose per day simply takes a bit longer but will still work very well. Please do report any and all blood test results along with HCV genotype and such. Please do your part by providing this feedback....Oscar

Now, as you probably already know: the type 1 variants of hepatitis C have proven to be the hardest to treat. Now don`t get discouraged. Another member of this forum is infected with type 1A also and reported that after about 8 weeks of daily dosing with 200mg or 250mg per day a two thirds reduction in her viral load count and a return to normal liver function test results. Those are impressive results. The usual prescribed treatments are 48 weeks with a less than 50% success rate.
Never the less, I do feel that for best results you or anyone else should be taking more than 200mg of BHT per day if and only if you have no serious adverse reaction. I would suggest taking one 200mg of BHT TWICE a day instead of only once. For people that have no side effects: One 350mg capsule taken TWICE a day is the best dosage from the feedback available.
There is no one other than the people in this here forum that are taking a serious interest in BHT as a treatment for hepatitis C. Finding the safe and effecive dosages are up to us. It does seem to me that just what that dosage is will vary from person to person. But that we are establishing some rough guidelines regarding that. 700mg per day of BHT seems to me to be well below the established NOEL [ No-Observed-Effects-Level ] as to the toxicity of BHT as stated here:
4. EVALUATION
In view of the probable involvement of hepatic enzyme induction
in the development of the hepatocellular damage associated with
repeated doses of BHT, the Committee concluded that, in this case,
enzyme induction was the most sensitive index of effects on the liver.
A well-defined threshold was demonstrated at 100 mg/kg bw/day in the
long-term study reviewed for the first time at this meeting, giving a
NOEL of 25 mg/kg bw/day. Effects observed in the reproduction segments
of the in utero/lifetime exposure studies were also taken into
account in the derivation of this NOEL. The Committee used a safety
factor of 100 to allocate an ADI of 0-0. 3 mg/kg bw for BHT.
That NOEL does work out to be: 1,250mg of BHT per day for a 110 pound person. In conclusion: It does seem to me that for best results 350mg of BHT taken TWICE a day is safe and effective for most average sized adults. But also that the 200mg per day dosage IS an effective dosage that will take longer to achieve those NO VIRUS DETECTED results. Please stay in touch with this forum and keep us updated with all test results. Thank you for reporting in. Your feedback and that of others will answer the questions surrounding the use of BHT [ butylated hydroxytoluene ] as a treatment for hepatitis C. Sincerely, ...Oscar

I found out a couple of years ago I have hep c, I think is type 1a. I'll be picking up my previous 4 c panel results today. I also have the latest results taken 2 days ago coming. I will post the latest results. I do know the the last one I took was 1. 5 million viral load with a near normal enzyme. that one was a few months ago.
My doctors really wanted me to take the standard treatment for 48 weeks. I almost started them. I did my own research to find the they wasn't telling me the whole story about the success rate. my thought were there has to be a better way..
Then just by accident I came across this site, a real GOD send I might add. I am encouraged about the results I have read. So encouraged I have started the bht treatment. I'm not one to just jump because someone else does. I went and explained it to my doctor. He is more than happy to monitor me and document it for others if it works. He has little concerns about me taking it. I also have to take my blood pressure medicine. Also not a concern for him. The only thing he is concerned about is it may thin my blood, still not a serious concern.. He wants me back in his office a month after I start bht for more blood work. I am looking forward to that series of test.
I have high confidence that the dosage I'm taking will will show positive results. Right now I doing the ramp up in dosage as suggested here. I have also found I am going to have trouble taking it before bedtime, so that's out for now. I am taking one 200 mg once a day.
Sorry for the babbling, just thought I should tell how and what I'm doing.
Thanx for listening..

So, for you this is not a problem. This BHT really does work as a treatment for hepatitis C taken as I have discussed. You are going to get those NO VIRUS DETECTED results. I have also dicussed why you need to keep taking the BHT once such results are achieved for at least 2 years in my opinion to clear the liver of ALL infected cells. From the feedback available one 350mg capsule taken TWICE a day on an empty stomach is what works best for most average size adults.
Please keep this forum updated with any and all test results....Oscar

I want to be helpful but any volume measurement I would suggest would be simply guessing at what volume would equal 200mg. Milligrams are a weight measurement.

I do not own one and cannot make any recommendations about these scales. I am sorry I cannot be more helpful....Oscar

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.

There are hundreds (just that I personally know of- I would estimate thousands total) of people on this mix (12 herbs) and a few have failed on it because of alcohol or drugs (that incudes NSAIDs) ..... Only 3 we know of have not responded due to root canal and jawbone cavitations left from molar extractions (they do not hurt-they just heavily tax your immune system)
While not curing hep c the mix returns liver enzymes to normal.... you would eventually die of something else.
Additionally I know personally 3 people who after doing the herbs for 8 wks. , cured their hep c with rife light treatments... That's blood test certified cured..... The local board of health hounded one of the guys 'wanting to know how he fooled their test'...... These guys are young, and are back to probably drinking too much beer, no, not a good idea, but that constitutes more proof to me of their success..... it has been years now since all this happened.
Hep c patients are relatively lucky.... the virus does not mutate, while some of the gnomes are more hearty than others.
'book frequencies' that are at cafl.com are typically all that is needed for rife treatments to work completely, eliminating the need for repeated personal scanning, which is highly problematic anyway, most scanners do not work well for many reasons.

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

Thank you
Lingzhi Mushroom
I decided to ask my Chinese medicine doctor what to do and she recommended Lingzhi mushroom. Within 2 days the symptoms had gone and I felt like a new person. I was told that eventually the virus would become inactive, so I'll give it a couple of months and go for a re-test.
I have also changed my diet, no fried food, no sugar (only natural sugar cane, no spicy food, no cold food or drinks (tepid), no alcohol and sleep on the back so as to give the liver a rest. Hope I have been of some help. God bless you. Wendy
Please report back to this forum with all test results. This is important. All details help including geno type and such. People are starting to report back and the results are impressive as I expected they would be. It takes longer for some than others. From the available information dramatic improvement should be indicated within a few months. For many it is a matter of weeks, for others a few months. This is the only information I have to go by: what people who try the BHT report back with. The feedback is looking very impressive so far. Wishing you the best, ...Oscar
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.

You can read what facha brute has to say about that here: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?p=6967512Ã
fatcha brute achieved a no detectable virus in one month along with freeing himself of genital warts with the use of BHT only.
Pass this on, I am not one to babble on sites, if you wish to let people know of a cure for Hep C, herpes, venerial warts, google this: Warts BHT. BHT works, google it you will see why, it will clear all virus in a month, no rubbing on this or that, no vinegar, no padhyoflyn.
Try it or research it.

I went to the emergency room today because I am have such bloating and trouble going to the bathroom--never did that before. My hepatologist (the nurse) told me not to wory about it because it was just ascites and to lay off the salt ( I have a very clean diet). I talked to Dr. Zhang and he said it could be something else other than ascites and then my herbalist said take amio acids and olive leaf. Because I was sure I had a blockage, I went to the emergency room. No blockage was found and they just said I had a urinary tract infection but my right side feels like something is there and I am still not getting regular bowel movements. Did something build up or is there a parasitic ball stuck there? My mouth also tastes funny in the last few days.
I may have done too much at once--MMS and Dr. Zhangs and black walnut tincture since March tetering off on both a both in the last 8 weeks. A kinesiologist muscle tested me for all of it and gave me the doses (less than intially prescribed) I needed. He also told me to give my body a break so I reduced doses and kept up the black walnut tincture.
ALP now 159 March 212; AST 131 now, March 189; AST now 61 no real change (had been 55 last week), GGT now 37, March 54. My red blood count and white blood count fell from normal in the past week. Last viral load this summer before protocals was 1.5 million --it has been as low as 600,000.
I just ordered BHT and took one this evening. I guess I will take the antibiotic prescribed. I am afraid to take supplements because I am not sure what is going on down there. I did the mineral oil enema and oral dose last night becuase of the fullness. It did not help. I also took malic acid to break things up.
Has anyone had these problems? Has anyone tried the new MMS protocol or Dr. Zhang's herbs? Do you think BHT is superior or easier than thises other protocols? Do I drink a little water or a lot?
I appreciate any knowledge on any of this!
