Abstract

BACKGROUND: Long-term ginseng intake can increase longevity in healthy individuals. Here, we examined if long-term treatment with

METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 252 HIV-1 patients diagnosed from 1986 to 2013 prior to the initiation of antiretroviral therapy. Overall, 162 patients were treated with KRG (3,947 ± 4,943 g) for 86 ± 63 mo. The effects of KRG on SD were analyzed according to the KRG intake level and the length of the follow-up period.

RESULTS: There were significant correlations between the total amount of KRG and SD in the KRG intake group (

CONCLUSION: KRG prolongs survival in HIV-1 patients, possibly by slowing the decrease in CD4

Keywords: Korean Red Ginseng; annual decrease of CD4+ T cells; human immunodeficiency virus/AIDS; survival duration
