someone asked me

I read on the internet that the geranium flower can treat people with HIV. ??? Is that right, Mrs.maria?

Answer from me

HIV or human immunodeficiency virus is a virus that can cause a decrease in the body's defenses by destroying one type of white blood cell (lymphocytes). These cells are important in protecting the body from infection. HIV infection can be transmitted through body fluids, such as blood and semen or semen. Although HIV cannot be cured, antiviral drugs have been found that can be used to control HIV infection. The drug can reduce the number of HIV viruses, so transmission can be reduced and the quality of life of patients can improve. With these drugs, patients infected with HIV can live healthily like everyone else. Indeed there are studies that look at the benefits of geranium flowers in inactivating the HIV virus. However, the research is still in a very early stage. The study only saw the potential for geranium flower root extract to be used as an ingredient in the manufacture of new drug classes in dealing with HIV-infected patients. It should be noted, how to use these drugs to be effective and possible side effects that have not been studied. The study also needs further research to see if this drug is truly effective. Research is also needed to determine what formulas or forms of medication should be used. In other words, geraniums cannot be used today to treat patients with HIV. If you or someone closest to you has HIV infection, you should consult with an internal medicine doctor so that no serious complications occur and transmission can be avoided. To avoid HIV infection, avoid unhealthy sexual behavior and use of hypodermic needles and invite pregnant women to check their HIV status so that transmission to the conceived baby can be prevented.

That is information from me. I hope this helps.
