A member asked:

I have genital warts how can i help my body fight the hpv?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nutrition/rest: A normal immune system is boosted by a proper balanced diet & rest. Regular exercise is also helpful. You can have the warts removed by laser/freezing or chemical application but the HPV germ is well known for hibernating in your system after primary clearance. If you see testimonials about supplements consider them a myth.
