HEPATICO & HEPATITIS
RICHMOND, B.C., May 21 /CNW/ - ALTA Natural Herbs & Supplements Ltd. (The ''Corporation'') announces it will begin immediate testing of HEPATICO with 100 Hepatitis sufferers. The Corporation has manufactured 12,000 capsules of HEPATICO in its first production run for this on May 20, 1998 as per the technical specifications provided by its Georgian partner. The initial lot is available without charge on condition the patients' physicians will assist them with their decision to use HEPATICO and supervise and monitor changes in their condition over the period they are consuming the herbal remedy, and record and report back all results to the Corporation's physicians. Alta Natural Herbs & Supplements Ltd. and the RA Co. Ltd., Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia, are structuring a joint venture company in North America to manufacture and market HEPATICO, a traditional herbal remedy from the Mingrolian and Zemo-svanetian mountain region in the Republic of Georgia. It has been researched and prescribed since 1992 by the medical communities of Eastern Europe for patients with acute forms of hepatitis A, B, and C, and cirrhosis of the liver with a high success rate. In the Georgian and Russian trials, patients, adults and children treated with HEPATICO showed significant healing in 7 to 10 days and 14 to 28 days for those suffering from acute and chronic hepatitis, respectively. Of 300 cirrhosis of the liver patients, there was a 91 % success rate with healing and restoration of all organs medically confirmed in 273 cases. The Corporation hopes to duplicate these results which should help gain recognition and acceptance for this treatment in North America, and worldwide. Hepatitis has become a serious medical crisis and there has been no known cure for this deadly disease. Preclinical and clinical studies of HEPATICO completed in the Republic of Georgia and Russia have shown to be highly successful in treating toxic and infectious hepatitis, and cirrhosis of the liver.
