CD4 Lymphocytes Research Analysis

Summary of CD4 Lymphocytes

Scientific Information on CD4 Lymphocytes

The Human Effect Matrix looks at human studies (it excludes animal and in vitro studies) to tell you what supplements affect cd4 lymphocytes

Grade	Level of Evidence [show legend]
	Robust research conducted with repeated double-blind clinical trials
	Multiple studies where at least two are double-blind and placebo controlled
	Single double-blind study or multiple cohort studies
	Uncontrolled or observational studies only

Outcome	Magnitude of effect ? The direction and size of the supplement's impact on each outcome. Some supplements can have an increasing effect, others have a decreasing effect, and others have no effect.	Consistency of research results ? Scientific research does not always agree. HIGH or VERY HIGH means that most of the scientific research agrees.	Notes
Colostrum	Minor	Low See all 4 studies	While there does not appear to be any influence in healthy controls or with low dose colostrum, higher doses of colostrum in persons with HIV (reduced CD4+ lymphocyte counts) may mildly increase CD4+ counts when compared to whey protein as control.
Ganoderma lucidum	Minor	- See study	The decrease in the CD4:CD8 ratio seen with altitude training is attenuated with 2,500-5,000mg of the water soluble polysaccharides
Alanylglutamine	-	- See study	CD4+ Lymphocyte counts in subjects with HIV are not affected by alanylglutamine supplementation.
Garlic	-	- See study	CD4+ Lymphocytes do not appear to be influence with supplementation of garlic
Tinospora cordifolia
Vitamin E
Andrographis paniculata
Chromium
