WASHINGTON—PatientswithHIV,thevirusthatcausesAIDS,oftendevelopvitamindeficiencies（缺乏）.Anewstudyhasfoundthatgivingthesepatientsamultivitaminwithamineralsupplement（补充）helpstofightthediseaseandslowsthedisease’sprogression.

Baumrecruitedalmost900newlyinfectedadultswhohadnotyetreceivedtheanti-AIDSdrugsthattargetthevirus.

TheseadultswerethendividedintogroupsthatrandomlyreceiveddifferentcombinationsofvitaminsB,CandE,themineralselenium（硒）oraplacebo（安慰剂）.

“Weweresurprisedtofindthatonlythecombinationwaseffective,”saidBaum.

ResearchshowsthatwhenpeoplewithHIVreceiveanti-retroviraldrugs（抗逆转录病毒）shortlyafterinfection,theycanremainhealthyandarelesslikelytopassthevirustoothers.Formanycountries,however,thecostoftheseanti-AIDSdrugsisstillprohibitive.

“AsimplemultivitaminsupplementationwithseleniumprovidedearlyinHIVdiseasecanactuallyslowtheHIVdiseaseprogressionanditissafe.ItislowcostanditshouldbeprovidedveryearlyinHIVinfection,”saidBaum.

Baumsaidthesupplementsarenotmeanttoreplaceanti-retroviraltherapy,butcanhelpthosewhocannotobtainthedrugs.

Dr.AnthonyFauci,aworldfamousexpertonAIDS,disagrees.

“Ihaven’treadthepaper,buthavingtakencareofHIV-infectedindividualsforthreedecades,Iwoulddoubtthatvitaminsaregoingtohaveamajoreffectonstoppingthevirus,”saidFauci.
