Efficacy Of The Cow Milk In The Increasing Of CD4 For People Living With HIV

There are People Living with HIV (PLWHIV) who are poor. Those PLWHIV who are eligible to antiretroviral (ARV) drugs, get them free of charge, but their CD4 don’t increase. The ARV, only, are not enough to increase CD4 for People Living with HIV. Meanwhile, the cow milk is a complete nutrient and it has several proteins which inhibit the enzymes of HIV. So the cow milk can increase rapidly CD4 for PLWHIV. On the other hand, there is a policy in Rwanda of “One cow per family” which has started. This policy aims at giving one cow to every family which is in need of it, in Rwanda. 1 liter of cow milk per day for 3 months was given to a study group of people living with HIV chosen randomly while a control group didn’t receive the cow milk. There was a significant association statistically between consuming the cow milk and rapid increasing of CD4 with a threshold α=0.05, P=0.0012.
