Yes, it breaks down the virus on a cellular level and usually works within 48 hours. I know of cases of terminal elderly in the hospital who were cured with it and vitamins.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No. There are three main classes of parasites that can cause disease in humans: protozoa (single cell, example amoeba), helminths (worms), and ectoparasites (mosquitos, ticks etc.)

Viruses are just a strand of genetic material -not a cell, lacks cell walls, membranes, or anything inside a cell like a nucleus.
