Chinese Medicine Therapy

Hi Julia,

I am sorry to hear that you are with stage 4 hep-c. Although taking Interferon is recommended for the treatment of this stage of hep-c but I am not sure whehter it is effective in treating this problem. However, what I know that it may be effective in keep the disease under control. Let’s pray that the modern medical research will discover some medicines that are effective in treating the disease.

Although taking any medicine or drugs will burden your liver, however, it is important that  you know what you are taking and beware of the side effects (if any).

Metabolic syndrome is a morbid condition and is due to one of the many kinds of dysbolism. It involves abnormal glucose tolerance and is usually related to obesity. If you are not treating the root of this condition, it may result in abnormal blood lipid, hypertension, etc., which is a critical factor for cardiovascular disease. Besides increases the risk of heart attack it also increases the risk of diabetes,and stroke.

You need to run some lab tests on your blood specimen to check cholesterol, triglycerides, or blood sugar levels to determine if you have metabolic syndrome. If you have metabolic syndrome, you must mprove your health through regular and systematic exercises, and as well as, consciously control your eating habits. 

All those strategies mentioned will keep the metabolic imbalances such as poor blood sugar control or hormonal imbalances, back into balance. Of course you could use nutritional  supplements and herbs to promote proper function of your body. Having said that, one must acknowledge that the process of keeping one healthy is tedious and cubersome. It means that your lifestyle will be greatly altered. However, for your health sake, I think it is worth to do so.

God bless.
