While we discuss healing through the hundreds of natural ways as described in the Ayurveda and other ancient and the modern health sciences, offering so many therapies, we have to consider that the senses of touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing are the ways and the means for all the therapies present in the world.

The most important point is that the healing through these five senses needs to be combined with the five basic elements  together to make an effect, impact and for the healing that we all need. We usually think and believe that one therapy represents just way of healing us.

For example the color therapy (or the chromo therapy) shows the effect of colors. It appears as if it is the color is healing us. We may notice that the colors have the range in which it works as healer; and as another example, aromatherapy seems to cure through the smell. However, it cannot work without the presence and the involvement of the five basic elements. Now, we need to consider how.

The liquid is present for the aromatherapy, and provides our body with air when we smell it. The evaporation of water also gives the healing effect without anything added to it.

Understanding about the water and its evaporation, we are going to discuss Alternative Medicines and Holistic Health Sciences in a brief and as a series, as well. The each point requires focus.

You see, the alternative medicines are the most primitive and natural ways of diagnosing illness, treatments and all of the theoretical uses for health care.

It does not use chemicals as medicines, which initially seem beneficial, but later on harm the human body, as well as other living things including the animals, birds, plants and even the five basic elements, namely the solid (earth), liquid, air, fire and space. The conclusion, which we can derive for the significance, need and importance of the alternative medicines, is very clear from the organic farming–which is in principle the way which we use the alternative medicines.

The alternative medicines allow nature to work to restore the original state of health, which is otherwise difficult. We understand and accept that nature is the laboratory that always works for all of living things, and the general health of the environment and our earth. Thus, nature has so many alternative ways that it uses the one that is most useful at the time when we need it most. Thus, the multiple drug therapy has emerged as one of the most effective means to cure.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: An aggressive therapeutic approach for treatment of HIV in adults consists of combining five or more concurrent antiretrovirals. The clinical benefits of this regimen are often accompanied by increased toxicities. We report the safety and tolerance of multiple drug therapy in HIV-infected children.

METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed to identify HIV-infected children who received > or =5 concurrent antiretrovirals or 4 antiretrovirals plus hydroxyurea. Treatment success was defined as > or =1 log(10) decrease in plasma HIV RNA from baseline any time during multiple drug therapy. Toxicities were defined as a >Grade 2 change from baseline in laboratory values.

RESULTS: Twelve patients received multiple drug therapy for 6 months, and 42% of patients continued to receive therapy for at least 1 year. No Grade 3 or 4 toxicities or laboratory abnormalities were reported. Treatment success occurred in 8 (83%) of 12 patients. Adherence was a determining factor in treatment success or failure.

CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of HIV-infected children with multiple drug therapy was well-tolerated in this cohort. Treatment success occurred in most patients, with adherence affecting patients' likelihood of success. Larger controlled clinical trials in this patient population are necessary to determine whether the benefit of this therapeutic approach outweighs potential risks."
