SUPPLEMENT: Newsletter of The New York Buyers’ Clubis published quarterly both in print and here on our website - both editions are free of charge. SUPPLEMENT features articles focusing on current items of interest in the world of nutritional supplements (usually related to HIV, Hep C, and related conditions), brief reviews of individual supplements and their uses, information about new products available from the NYBC Members Store, and upcoming NYBC education and outreach events. Click here for the latest edition of SUPPLEMENT.
We would also like to draw your attention to the content available in two great NYBC originals available for free download. The NYBC Self-Care Guide covers topics on wellness ranging from nutrition to meditation, while the New York Buyers' Club Catalog and Treatment Guide details our entire inventory of supplements and explains, in depth, their recommended uses.
The following is a mini-library of dossiers that cover a wide range of common symptoms and side effects of HIV and HIV meds. In them you will find detailed information on the potential causes of these conditions and how to treat them with a CAM (Complementary and Alternative Medicine) approach, along with information about drug and other treatments. Many offer protocols (recommended regimens) that were developed, along with the original volume from which these information sheets have been extracted, by NYBC's predecessor, DAAIR (Direct Action AIDS Information Resources). They have been recently reviewed and updated by NYBC's Treatment Director, George Carter. This is an evolving process so stay tuned for updates!
Note: the sale of the following books, recommended by NYBC staff and members,
