What is HIV?
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the body's immune system, specifically the CD4 cells (T-cells), which are crucial in fighting infections. If left untreated, HIV can lead to the development of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a condition characterized by a severely weakened immune system.
Causes of HIV:
• Sexual contact: Unprotected intercourse with infected person.
• Blood-to-blood contact: Sharing needles, receiving contaminated blood transfusions, or exposure to infected blood.
• Mother-to-child transmission: HIV transmission during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.
Symptoms of HIV:
• Variable based on infection stage.
• Early stages may show flu-like symptoms: fever, sore throat, fatigue, muscle aches, rash, swollen lymph nodes.
HIV Symptoms and Progression
• Asymptomatic stage: Often not experienced for years.
• Severe symptoms: Rapid weight loss, night sweats, frequent infections, persistent diarrhea, pneumonia, certain cancers.
Diagnosis of HIV:
HIV Diagnosis Process
• ELISA: Detects presence of HIV antibodies.
• Western blot: Identifies virus.
• NATs: Analyzes nucleic acid content.
• Viral load tests: Assesses viral load.

Types of HIV:
There are two main types of HIV:
1.
HIV-1: The most common and pathogenic strain, responsible for the majority of HIV infections globally.
2. HIV-2: A less virulent and less transmittable strain, primarily found in West Africa.
Adverse Effects of HIV:
• Opportunistic infections: Weakened immune system increases susceptibility to infections like pneumonia, tuberculosis, and certain cancers.
• Neurological disorders: HIV affects brain and nervous system, leading to conditions like HIV-associated dementia and neuropathy.
• Wasting syndrome: Rapid, severe weight loss, fatigue, diarrhea, and fever.
• Increased risk of other conditions: Increased risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and certain cancers.
Diet in HIV:
HIV Diet Recommendations
• Consume nutrient-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
• Increase caloric intake to prevent weight loss.
• Ensure adequate intake of vitamins and minerals, especially those supporting immune function.
• Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol and tobacco use.
• Consult with a healthcare professional or nutritionist for personalized dietary advice.
• With proper treatment and management, individuals can lead long, productive lives.
