Lloyd was on the radio again on Aug. 12th. we just got the link to the show so you can listen if you missed it.
Lloyd Wright contracted Hepatitis C in 1979 from blood transfusions. A liver biopsy in 1994 revealed Chronic Hepatitis C. The medical establishment advised him to get his papers in order and expect to live another 3 to 5 years, and hope that something would come along to help. Lloyd has been Hepatitis C Free for over 13 years with no detectable virus in his body. Learn how he did it!
Oxymatrine Studies
Matrine and oxymatrine are the two major alkaloid components found in sophora roots. They are obtained primarily from Sophora japonica (kushen), but also from Sophora subprostrata (shandougen), and from the above ground portion of Sophora alopecuroides. The matrines were first isolated and identified in 1958; they are unique tetracyclo-quinolizindine alkaloids (see Figure 1) found only in Sophora species thus far.
Could I give hepatitis C to someone else?
Sexual Transmission
It is rare for hepatitis C to be passed between monogamous sexual partners. In a survey of people with hepatitis C who had spouses or monogamous partners, less than 5% of them had partners who also had hepatitis C, and that includes those partners who themselves had behaviors that put them at risk for hepatitis C such as intravenous drug use. Cases that involve the spreading of hepatitis C between stable, monogamous sex partners is less than 1% per year. Doctors do not recommend that people in stable relationships change their sex practices.

It is the leading cause of liver cancer - a cancer that is on the rise and continues to be a fatal and costly disease. Yet it remains unrecognized as a serious threat to public health.
