In addition, there are also folk remedies that help relieve symptoms and cure hepatitis C, however, the appropriateness and effectiveness of their use in each specific case should be consulted with your doctor.

Drug and homeopathic therapy

The main goals of traditional treatment for hepatitis C are:

• reducing the concentration of the virus or completely removing it from the body;
• reduction or complete elimination of the inflammatory process;
• preventing the transformation of hepatitis into liver cancer or cirrhosis.

All hepatitis C treatment regimens are based on the drug interferon-alpha in combination with ribavirin, the use of which increases the body’s chance of getting rid of the virus. The main quality of this medicine is to block the spread of infection and prevent infection of the entire liver.

However, these pharmaceuticals are very expensive and usually cause serious side effects such as depression, fever, nausea, headaches and constant fatigue. Therefore, it is very important to correlate the expected therapeutic effect with possible undesirable consequences from taking these drugs.

The high ability of hepatitis C viruses to mutate makes the disease difficult to cure. There is numerous evidence that homeopathic remedies that are produced on the basis of microdoses of silver and copper have abilities that enhance the antiviral capabilities of the immune system. Taking copper in acute hepatitis leads to normalization of the morphological picture and restoration of adequate copper levels in the liver. The combined action of silver and copper gives even more noticeable immunostimulating results.

Hepatitis C develops as a result of infection of the body by one of the viruses. Most often this occurs as a result of transfusion of contaminated blood, using only injection needles, applying a tattoo with an unsterile instrument, or during unprotected sex with a patient. This type of hepatitis is considered one of the most dangerous.

Characteristic symptoms

As a rule, signs of infection appear approximately 50 days after the virus enters the body. A person’s appetite may worsen, weakness, and pain in the right hypochondrium may appear. Sometimes the disease may be indicated by nausea and bloating.

When infected, pathogenic microorganisms penetrate the liver and begin to multiply there. The cells gradually begin to be replaced by fibrous tissue. The disease is dangerous because in most cases it is asymptomatic. Although many simply do not pay attention to the weakness that appears, rapid fatigue, and increased belching.

Experts also know that signs of hepatitis even include a runny nose, cough, pain in muscles and joints, if they are accompanied by darkening of the urine and lightening of the stool.

In some cases, it is quite possible to get rid of a disease such as hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies is also very popular. But better methods alternative medicine must be combined with traditional therapy. This will speed up recovery and put the liver in order.

Traditional treatment

Many, having heard their diagnosis, are in no hurry to follow the doctor’s orders and purchase the necessary medications. But it is worth remembering that herbal infusions and decoctions can only temporarily alleviate the condition; they do not have pronounced antiviral properties, so they cannot be used to completely overcome hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies for genotype 1 b is not advisable. After all, this type generally responds poorly to therapy. It is also difficult to remove the virus from the bodies of people over 40 years of age and those with weakened immune systems.

For treatment, doctors often prescribe the drug Interferon-alpha in combination with Riboverine. Therapy always involves taking effective antiviral drugs. Only with a competent approach to treatment can irreversible changes in the liver be prevented. These include cirrhosis and cancer.

Complex therapy

In most cases, even doctors advise using a number of unconventional methods to alleviate the condition. But if you find a recipe yourself, then before using it it is better to consult an infectious disease specialist or at least a therapist. After all, some herbs are toxic, and therefore they can only harm the liver.

Both doctors and traditional healers agree that a diet is necessary if you have been diagnosed with viral liver damage. It is also advisable to start limiting yourself if you have symptoms inherent in a disease such as hepatitis C. Both treatment with folk remedies and methods of traditional therapy can alleviate the condition.

To increase the effectiveness of treatment, it is necessary to avoid canned foods, fatty, smoked, fried foods, and alcohol. It is also important to minimize the amount of spices and seasonings you use.

Alternative medicine methods

Traditional healers offer a lot of options on how to overcome hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies reduces the load on the liver, so the patient’s condition can temporarily return to normal. But this does not mean that herbs help neutralize the virus. This must be remembered if you decide to completely abandon the methods of traditional medicine.

Herbalists often recommend using various infusions and decoctions made from one or more herbs. Milk, mumiyo, oats, and lemons are also used. Juices are popular. To improve your condition, you need to completely review your diet and change your diet.

Popular herbs

To improve the condition and normalize liver function, many healers recommend using various infusions. Let's look at some of them.

The mixture made with your own hands is poured with a liter of boiling water and infused for at least 7 hours. The infusion should be consumed three times a day before meals. But this is not the only possible treatment with folk remedies.

You can also try to overcome hepatitis C using corn silk alone. This recipe is also known to those who suffer from gall bladder problems. A tablespoon of stigmas is poured into a glass of boiling water and infused for a couple of hours. Drink 3 tbsp infusion. l. four times a day. You can also make a decoction from them. To do this, pour 3 tbsp into 0.5 liters of boiling water. l. corn silks. Drink a decoction of 0.5 cups.

Herbalists also recommend this recipe. Tansy, mint, immortelle, cumin, horsetail, celandine, dandelion, shepherd's purse and verbena are mixed in equal proportions. Rose hips, birch leaves and corn silk are also added to this mixture. A spoonful of the prepared dry crushed mixture is poured with a glass of boiling water and left for 7 hours. The strained infusion is drunk 1/3 glass about 15 minutes before each meal. According to healers, it has choleretic, antimicrobial, antiviral and blood purifying properties. They say that people who take this medicine forget that they had hepatitis C.

Treatment with folk remedies can also be carried out using the root of the marsh calamus. The infusion is made from 1 tsp. raw materials and a glass of boiling water. You can drink the medicine 20 minutes after preparation - ½ glass before meals. The interval between taking the infusion and food should be about 30 minutes.

It is important to follow all recommendations for the preparation and use of infusions if you have hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies (milk thistle, for example, is also very popular) will not give a positive result if you take the infusions haphazardly. The herb mentioned is effective for various liver diseases, including viral hepatitis, cirrhosis and cholelithiasis. It helps restore the cells of this organ. To prepare the medicine, you need to pour 60 g of milk thistle seeds with a liter of water and boil over low heat until the volume of the decoction is reduced by half.

After this, you should take a two-week break, after which the course must be repeated, regardless of how you feel.

Healthy teas

Many healers recommend preparing not only infusions. Mixtures of herbs can be brewed like ordinary tea, steeped for about 10-30 minutes, filtered and drunk.

Each tablespoon of the mixture is poured with a glass of boiling water and infused for about 10 minutes. Tea is drunk hot, ¼ cup, during meals. The course of treatment lasts 30 days and must be repeated after a month.

You can be treated with regular tea, to which healing sugar will be added. To prepare the latter, use ordinary celandine. You need to squeeze the juice out of it and add 2-3 drops onto refined sugar. In order for it to become as useful as possible, it must be left for a couple of months in a warm place. With the help of tea sweetened with such sugar, you can cope with a terrible disease called hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies (celandine in particular) also includes preparing infusions from a mixture of herbs.

Atypical recipes

Some methods of supporters of alternative medicine are questionable, but, nevertheless, people try to use them to forget what hepatitis C is. Treatment with folk remedies, reviews of which are often positive, can turn out to be very unconventional.

So, healers suggest using lemon to fight the disease. To do this, the juice of one citrus fruit must be mixed with 1 tsp. soda The prepared mixture is consumed in the morning on an empty stomach. They say that four days is enough to forget about the signs of jaundice, which often accompanies hepatitis C.

Treatment with folk remedies (horseradish root, by the way, is one of the components of many recipes) should be aimed at fighting viruses, renewing the body's strength and restoring liver cells. To combat infectious hepatitis, healers recommend mixing horseradish root minced through a meat grinder and May honey in equal quantities. The resulting medicine is infused for 3 days, after which it must be consumed 3 hours after each meal for 40 days.

If possible, it is also worth making a special healing tincture. To do this, in June you need to pick horseradish leaves, place them tightly in a three-liter bottle and fill with vodka. The drug is infused for a week, and then taken 1 teaspoon mixed in ¼ glass of water, half an hour before meals.

There are also other methods by which hepatitis C is treated with folk remedies. Reviews indicate that consuming horseradish root infusion has a good effect. It is prepared as follows.

After this, the infusion is filtered and the grounds are squeezed out. Drink the resulting liquid ¼ glass before meals.

Application of oats

There are highly effective and at the same time quite inexpensive methods of treating a viral disease such as hepatitis C. Treatment with folk remedies (oats are an excellent assistant in this matter) should have a choleretic effect and promote the regeneration of liver cells. For these purposes, you can make a special decoction.

A glass of pure oat grains is ground into powder (this can be done using a blender, coffee grinder and mortar with a masher), sifted and poured with a liter of boiling water. For this amount you also need to add 2 tbsp. l. sugar and a pinch of salt. The composition is mixed and brought to a boil over a fire. After this, it must be simmered for literally 5 minutes and removed from the stove. The cooled broth is taken ½ or even a whole glass after meals.

For treatment, it is recommended to dilute 4 g of this product in warm milk. To increase the effectiveness of therapy, you can add grape juice and honey. It is recommended to eat this with a homemade raw chicken egg. Shilajit is taken for a month.

But this is not the only recipe that is remembered when it is necessary to carry out treatment with folk remedies. Hepatitis C responds better to drug therapy, but if you are an ardent opponent of traditional medicine, you can adopt several available techniques from the arsenal of healers. For example, prepare a potion with the same organ-mineral product. Mumiyo can be diluted in water at the rate of 0.5 g per 0.5 liter of liquid. The prepared solution is taken 1 tbsp. l. before meals (about half an hour) for 24 days. After this, it is advisable to take a ten-day break, and after it ends, repeat the course. For re-treatment, 0.7 g of mumiyo is already used for the same amount of water. After each course, you need to drink an infusion of herbs for 10 days. To prepare it, yarrow, St. John's wort, horsetail and chicory are mixed. A spoonful of the mixture is poured with 200 ml of boiling water and simmered in a water bath for 30 minutes.

Treatment during pregnancy

There are situations when it is better to trust the professionals. You should not engage in healing if you were diagnosed with hepatitis C while carrying a baby. Treatment with folk remedies during pregnancy can be dangerous for both the health of the mother and her baby.

Treatment with folk remedies can be like this. For therapy, milk mixed with birch charcoal ground into dust is used.

Many people also recommend drinking pumpkin juice. Porridge made from this product is also useful. It is cooked in water, and milk is poured into it before the end of cooking. You can also add a small amount of rolled oats to it at the end. Porridge will not lose its beneficial properties, if you sweeten it.

Mustard oil is also considered useful for hepatitis. It can also be used by expectant mothers. It helps cleanse the liver. It replaces regular oil and can be used for frying or dressing salads.

Traditional healers recommend that everyone use carrots for treatment. To do this, pour 0.5 liters of boiled water into 1 kg of grated vegetable. After an hour, the mixture must be strained and the grounds squeezed through cheesecloth. Add ¾ cup cranberry juice and ½ lemon juice to the mixture. The prepared drink is drunk three times a day, ¼ cup.

But it is worth remembering that it is necessary to monitor your health even if you decide to refuse traditional treatment.
