How to treat HIV comprehensively with anti-retrovirals, and complementary therapies, including anabolic steroids. This first-of-its-kind guide promotes the medical use of anabolic steroids, admittedly illegal, for the HIV+ population's long-term survival. The book details everything relevant about anabolic hormones, appetite stimulants, proper diet, new dietary supplements, and optimal exercise programs -- all backed with extensive and current research, which is: championed by prominent physicians who wrote the Foreword; co-authored by a man who has been HIV+ for 19 years; supported by anecdotal evidence. The aggressive three-pronged approach -- anabolic steroids, nutrition and exercise -- is designed to combat the most physically noticeable effect of HIV/AIDS -- the loss of lean body mass and weight, wasting syndrome. Improved lean body mass leads to improved health, including mental health, which contributes to good quality of life.

Editorial Reviews
Review
Nelson and Michael have shown great courage and commitment to follow through after 6 years of hard work to publish this book. Hopefully, for those who read and learn and grow from this book, their example will influence these people not to give up and to fight for life. -- Dr. Shannon Schrader - Houston, TX
The authors effectively detail how to use nutrition, anabolic hormones and exercise in combination to imporve lean body mass and overall health in HIV. This book is a great guide for patients and physicians who want to learn more about these therapies. -- Dr. Patricia Salvato- Houston, TX
An immensely significant book that addresses HIV in a positive fashion. Mooney and Vergel write with verve and urgency, and their knowledge is nothing short of miraculous. Important - and far too critical to be ignored. From: The Book Reader Fall/Winter 2000/01 edition

From the Author
After five years of work, we published this book with funds we have raised from our seminars. All proceeds from the sale of this book will help fund HIV wellness-related projects in the U.S. and other countries. This book is a great avenue for us to share with you what we've found in our search for more effective and healthy ways to enhance lean body mass, quality-of-life, and productivity in this critical illness. It took five years of work, but I think the wait was well worth it.
