Adding some antioxidant vitamins to your anti-HIV medications is likely to have important long-term benefits benefits that the drugs by themselves wont give you. University researchers from Poland have found that when HIV-positive people added supplements of vitamins A, C and E to their anti-HIV drug regimes they considerably reduced the levels of genetic damage they were experiencing.

Genetic damage will clearly have important consequences. The genes in all the cells of the body hold a set of blueprints or instructions on how to keep the body functioning and how to make new body parts. For example, if you need to make more T4 cells to replace those lost due to HIV then the information on how to make new cells comes from your genes.
