Green tea possibly the key for gel anti-HIV the effective vagina. That was based on the new research. The trigger of the research was the new findings that sperm water contained a factor, that was acknowledged as the promoter of the spread of the virus through sperm water (cement-derived enhancer of the virus infection/SEVI), that delivered the HIV to the main door to the cell that was liked by the HIV to be infected.

SEVI was fibril I-amiloid that was made from prostate protein that was general in sperm water. I-amiloid other was connected with the neurology illness for example Alzheimer and Parkinson. Among the compound that opposed the formation I-amiloid was EGCG – the green tea molecule that really often was researched.

Maybe green tea hindered SEVI and opposed the HIV infection? Yes, was based on the findings of Ilona Hauber PhD. and his colleague, from Heinrich-Pette Institute for Experimental Virology and Immunology in Hamburg, Germany.

In the laboratory research, Hauber and the colleague showed that EGCG destroyed fibril that was formed from peptid the prostate and stopped sperm water increased the spread of HIV. Molekul green tea did not endanger the human cell.

One of the main results that it was hoped from the AIDS research was the search for vagina gel that could be used by the woman to protect himself towards the spread of the time HIV had sex. The gel might not cause the irritation and his active content must develop in the acidity of the vagina environment.

EGCG stable in the acid environment, because of that Hauber and the colleague proposed EGCG could become the important addition to vagina gel anti-HIV, the possibility was combined with medicine antiretroviral (ARV).

It was further, the researchers recorded, EGCG personally appeared to have the activity anti-HIV also. “EGCG, the natural content of green tea, possibly was the beneficial and effective obstacle the cost towards the increase in the spread of the virus that ditengahi by sperm water, including the spread of the HIV in a seksual,” manner they concluded.
