Q:  My son has been diagnosed with Hepatitis C and is about to begin treatment. Which herbs or supplements would be good for support?

A: A visit with a homeopathic or naturopathic doctor is recommended for a complete evaluation and different course of treatment. Homeopathy can effectively enhance immunity and neutralize viral cells and is much safer than conventional treatments. There are over 350 homeopathic remedies that may be used to treat hepatitis C. While the key is a high quality diet rich in antioxidants to strengthen the immune system, many supplements, including herbs with anti-viral properties, enzymes, and amino acids can be used to treat viral conditions like Hepatitis C. The recommended treatment will depend on whether the disease is acute or chronic.
