HPV and cancer - are there any natural treatments?

HPV cancers are booming since the pandemic. Are their ways of eradicating, or at least reducing the load of this Herpes virus?
 

HPV related cancers - not just cervical, but tongue, throat, mouth and even oesophageal - are booming. Don’t take our word for it. Two of our patients were told by their respective hospitals that it’s true.

Maybe it's something to do with Covid-19? We have covered research (1) that Covid-19 infection can wake up the varicella virus, which then can wake up members of the Herpes family.

Worryingly, all our HPV patients tend to be diagnosed in their early 40s or under.

There are 40 to 200 members of the HPV family depending upon which research study you read. HPV is a small, double stranded DNA virus. Some types of HPV are high risk for genital warts and cancer. HPV is the most common sexually-transmitted disease in the USA.

Herpes family members are in almost all of us

HPV, or Human papillomavirus, rarely acts alone and often in conjunction with other Herpes viruses. Sure enough, most patients have cold sores, and HPV and the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) are known to lie dormant in our nerve endings. You may think just a few people have it, but the CDC in the USA say these two lie dormant in 80 per cent of us.

Herpes IV or Epstein-Barr Virus, and Cytomegalovirus lie dormant in our cells. Do you think EBV is mononucleosis or kissing disease? Well it is but it’s already in 50 per cent of 5-year-olds, again according to the CDC.

We’ve all been told that girls need a vaccine to prevent HPV, starting at the age of 12 and before they have sex. It turns out that at 12 it might already be too late.

Can you lower the HPV load in your body?

Between 2012 and 2017 research studies showed natural compounds (2) could definitely help fight the virus, but often only as HPV was taking hold. Here we add to that list.

   * Soursop (Graviola) and Ellagic acid (berries/walnuts) could greatly reduce the chances of developing cervical cancer after HPV infection. Infected women treated with Ellagic acid were far less likely to have a positive PAP test after 6 months.

   * Curcumin was shown to stop HPV creating cervical cancer cells

   * Artemisinin, or Sweet wormwood, was shown to be capable of treating HPV-infected and transformed cells, and also to have anti-cancer benefits with cervical cancer.

   * EGCG from green tea has been shown to offer benefits against HPV by uncoupling HPV from new tissue infection. Green tea is also known to damage replication and cellular entry of Herpes simplex and other Herpes family members.

   * Resveratrol from red grape skins, has been shown in vivo to limit the replication of Herpes family members. 

   * Berberine reduces HPV transcription.

   * Shiitake mushrooms were shown able to actually lower levels of HPV.

   * Iodine (sea fish or sea kelp, four times per week) is also crucial for killing viruses around cells. 

   * Basant, a multi-herbal Indian compound, has been shown to inhibit the transduction of HPV16 and has anti-HPV activities in vitro.

 

Researchers at the University of Texas did the original work on Shiitake, going on to extract the active ingredient Active Hexose Correlated Compound or AHCC, from a two month fermentation process on the mushroom roots. Their research, in their own words, claimed AHCC 'eradicates' HPV - Maybe it eradicates only the HPV that is active outside of the nerve endings..

 

What else helps fight the Herpes family?

 

Organic Mushrooms can also help - Reishi is an antiviral against the Herpes family; Cordycepin is good with EBV; Shiitake with HPV; Chaga stops Herpes entering cells.

 

Turkey Tail is good for managing Herpes outbreaks and improving cancer survival and keeping good levels of white cells during conventional treatment. 

 

We might also use two natural antivirals -

 

Pau d'arco has antiviral benefits against the Herpes family. The active ingredients Lapachol and beta-lapachone have been shown to be capable of fighting the HPV virus in laboratory studies.

 

Olive Leaf Extract has research against HPV where it promoted apoptosis in affected cancer cells by upregulating p21Cip/WAF1 gene expression. Another study in 2023 showed that together Olive Leaf extract and curcumin could reduce the number of HPV genital warts and improve the duration of healing.

 

Then there's Daphnoretin (a Traditional Chinese Medicine). It's a coumarin which is a proven protein kinase inhibitor, and has been shown to have anti-viral properties even neutralising HPV. It also has antineoplastic properties.
