Question : Hi

I am HIV positive and taking Atripla. I am wondering if vitamins line monolaurin, or black seeds could be good support in helping boosting my immune system.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
yes you can

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

You can take those as there are scientific evidence that they all help to boost immunity. Monolaurin even has antviral properties.

You can also try vitamin C, mushrooms, raw garlic for the same.

Hope I have been helpful.
