According to Kevin Fenton, M.D. who is the director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, and who spoke at the National STD Prevention Conference on March 8th, 2010:

"It is clear that we will not be able to stop the U.S. HIV epidemic until every affected community, along with health officials nationwide, prioritize the needs of gay and bisexual men with HIV prevention efforts."

The CDC stated in a press release dated March 10, 2010:

"data, presented at CDC's 2010 National STD Prevention Conference, finds that the rate of new HIV diagnoses among men who have sex with men (MSM) is more than 44 times that of other men and more than 40 times that of women." Additionally, the press release went on to say, "CDC data have shown for several years that gay and bisexual men make up the majority of new HIV and new syphilis infections."

Although the gay and bisexual male population has for several years comprised the majority of new HIV cases, The United Nations AIDS Program estimated that, in 2003, there were 40 million people worldwide living with HIV with women accounting for half of these cases. In December 2003, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that between 1,039,000 and 1,185,000 people in the United States were infected with HIV.

While there is no cure for HIV or AIDS, HIV medications usually include antiviral drugs that are taken to hinder the growth and even kill off part of the HIV cells. Although this HIV/AIDS treatment does not work for everyone, they can help to keep the patient healthy and avoid the progression of the infection to AIDS.

Gene-Eden for Safer Sex (Formula SX-101) is an all natural, herbal supplement in which all of the ingredients show beneficial effects against viral STDs in a vast number of scientific studies. The ingredients of Gene-Eden, beside their therapeutic effects, also show a high safety profile.

The following are a small sampling of quotations that come from various medical journals that discuss documented studies done on the Gene-Eden for Safer Sex supplement’s ingredients. Those ingredients include: Selenium, Phyllanthus amarus, Curcumin, Quercetin, Cinnamon, and Licorice.

One of Gene-Eden for Safer Sex’s ingredients, Selenium, "has an inhibitory effect on HIV in vitro through antioxidant effects of glutathione peroxidase and other selenoproteins." (Nutrition Reviews, 10 Nov. 2010)

According to the medical journal, Life Sciences, "dietary supplementation of Curcumin may be a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment and/or prevention of HAD." (Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1)-associated dementia (HAD) is a significant consequence of HIV infection.)

In terms of Quercetin, Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry said, "(+)-1(R)-Coclaurine (1) and (-)-1(S)-norcoclaurine (3), together with quercetin 3-O-beta-D-glucuronide (4), were isolated from the leaves of Nelumbo nucifera (Nymphaceae), and identified as anti-HIV principles."

Yet another glowing review of one of Gene-Eden for Safer Sex’s ingredients is the following from Antiviral Chemistry & Chemotherapy:

"…cinnamon extracts rich in certain flavonoid compounds were shown to block HIV-1 entry and infection in GHOST cells. As such, these types of botanical extracts could provide a starting point for the development of possible safe and reliable cotherapies for HIV-1-positive individuals, as well as for the identification of new small molecules as leading drug candidates for HIV-1 therapeutics and microbicides."

With this type of documentation on hand (indeed, there are over 15,000 combined, published papers on these ingredients’ antiviral properties) we at the Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease believe this supplement is something every gay or bisexual male (as well as other population groups) should be taking as an aid in HIV prevention.

The CBCD is a not-for-profit organization that specializes in researching the biology of chronic disease.
