HIV positive patients usually show a gradual deterioration of their general condition and the laboratory key values which are accompanied by the resulting negative effects on their subjective condition. This study showed a very good stabilization of HIV positive patients by using the complex ISF nutrient program over a period of ten or 15 months. Only a very low proportion of antiviral and antibiotic supply had been given. The ratio did not change over the entire testing period of 15 months. The mortality rates observed here were a fraction of the AIDS mortality rates that are otherwise published. The data of this study also show a very good benefit/risk relationship for the patients, which can be derived from the overall favorable statements on the tolerance.
