Researches have found a protein that can fight not only HIV, but other viruses also. These viruses include Ebola, Rift Valley Fever, and Nipah, to name a few. The protein, cholesterol-25-hydroxylase (CH25H), is put into action by interferon, an antiviral protein in our bodies. CH25H itself has no anti-viral properties, but instead works by inhibiting the HIV cell cultures, and prevents the HIV from inhibiting the cell. Within 7 days, CH25H had drastically reversed the amount of HIV and had replenished the T-Cells.
