Living a Better Life with HIV

So in my opinion, lifestyle changes, starting with nutrition, to prevent infections is one of the best ways to live a better quality life with HIV, according to Dr. Lina Velikova, MD, Ph.D.

Every year, on 1 December, the world commemorates World AIDS Day, the theme for 2020 is Global Solidarity, Shared Responsibility”

Tips to Quality Living with Better Choices:

Maintain a Strong Hygiene Routine

Those who are HIV positive should have a strong hygiene routine, starting with frequent handwashing with soap to prevent germs from entering the body.

Wash Fruits and Vegetables

It's important to remember to thoroughly wash fruits and vegetables before eating them.

Avoid Touching Raw Meat

Cross-contamination occurs when bacteria are spread from one food product to another. This is especially common when handling raw meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs.
