"...There are a huge number of compounds, even some spices, that suppress HIV in the test tube. Behavior in the body is frequently another story...."Bleach will kill AIDS very effectively, unfortunately it also has negative effects for the host organism. While I truly hope a real solution to save 40M people can be found, I am skeptical of academic research that has not yet been peer-reviewed. If it does work there is an entire continent that could use some help today and might not wait for the FDA to approve the drug.I believe the FDA tries hard to only let good drugs through the system. However, I have read too many pharmaceutical studies to know that they are the biggest promoters of statistical terrorism. Meaning they find perfect human specimens and subject them to whatever their drug is. The person who can run back-to-back marathons will not have troubles with an Asthma medication.If all is as reported...Go them!
It goes to show that the cure for aids and cancer will come from university and government research and probably not from pharmaceutical companies. I hope this research turns into something promising. Good find.
HEY! I live in utah alright. It's not like its a third world country. So who ever thinks its a useless country can go to hell. Also Byu is a very smart college. I'm very glad that we are getting closer to a cure.
OK just to say this put BYU on the map again. first we got our TVs from a byu prof and then a artificial heart from byu now BYU will help end the aids virus.and for the Mormon bash er this story has nothing to do with Mormonism I would know cause I'm a Mormon also.
evilbadger, and you other commenter's who think that a cure for aids = free irresponsible sex: tell that to the tens of thousands of girls that get raped every day on their way to find work in post colonial Africa. Tell that to the thousands of 15 yr old girls who are kidnapped every year from small towns in eastern Europe and and trafficked on the black market as sex slaves. IMHO this is not a disease that should be talked about lightly.

All though religion has nothing to do with it, since all humanity will benefit from the find, a simple Google into "Mormon Inventors" pulls up quite the list of things you flamers use daily . . .<a class="user" href="http://www.adherents.com/largecom/fam_lds_inv.html">http://www.adherents.com/largecom/fam_lds_inv.html</a> Whoever, Whatever, However . . .
