This is my friend Bethany and I making a commercial. It was fun and I think not to bad for a relatively inexpensive camera, and terrible software for editing (seriously, it is WinDVD Creator). But it was fun so that’s all that matters.

These sores are very contagious. They appear three to ten days after exposure and may last up to three weeks. From the moment they start tingling they are contagious, and will remain so until the lesion heals completely. Kissing, sharing utensils, sexual intercourse or touching anything that the infected persons lesion has touched (a towel they have used etc) will transmit the virus to you. So be careful!

The Lysine approach

Nutrients and diet are helpful. The amino acid Lysine slows or alters the growth of the virus, and, foods that are rich in this amino acid should be included in the diet. Some examples are fish and shellfish, bean sprouts, brewers yeast, milk, beans, fruit and vegetables, eggs, and turkey.

Foods that should be avoided are refined carbohydrates, whole grain and white flour and sugar, colas and coffee, alcohol and processed foods. During outbreaks, foods that contain the amino acid Arginine should also be avoided. These include gelatine, chicken, wheat germ, cereals, soybeans, almonds, peanuts, walnuts, cashews, carob and chocolate. Arginine competes with lysine for absorption. Citrus foods may also irritate the infection.

According to researcher Christopher Kagan, M.D., herpes DNA uses the amino acid L-arginine to replicate itself and form a virus. “Early studies using laboratory cultures demonstrated that L-arginine was necessary for herpes growth,” Kagan stated, “It soon became clear that another amino acid, L-lysine, blocked the bio-availability of arginine. By 1981, Dr. Griffith had demonstrated that lysine concentrations similar to those found in human blood could suppress herpes growth in lab cultures.”

Several clinical studies have supported the efficacy of Lysine supplementation for herpes therapy. In one survey, 88% of 1,543 cold sore sufferers reported benefiting from lysine therapy. “More research on Lysine is still needed,” says Kagan, “but lysine therapy has produced some positive results.”

There has been a lot of studies done into the triggers and prevention of cold sores. It has been found that supplementation of the amino acid Lysine actually suppress the symptoms of cold sores. The studies also showed that once supplementation stopped the cold sores returned within 1 to 4 weeks. The amount of Lysine needed as a preventative for cold sores varies, depending on the persons diet and the overall nutrient balance of Arginine and Lysine, as well as biochemical individuality. Generally a maintenance dosage of 500mg twice daily is suggested for prevention, increasing to as much as 2000 – 3000 mg three to four times daily if the onset of symptoms such as the “tingling” are noticed. In this case, remain at the higher dosage for at least four days, even if the symptoms subside.

Leanne James realised the need for a complex formulation to help treat and prevent cold sores, so made Herp-eze. This product contains the immune boosters Astragalus & Zinc, the anti viral herb Olive leaf, as well as L-lysine & Vitamin C – Wow!! What a power pack.

Stress has a strong link with the onset of an outbreak of cold sores. Certain supplements have been shown to have a direct effect on the virus: Lysine, B complex, Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids, Vitamin E and the mineral Zinc. These nutrients are needed for a strong immune system and for the production of collagen. Naturopharm have their cream to apply to cold sores which you can find in this Colsor Pack. Also try herbs that help fight off a virus, such as Echinacea, Cats Claw, Garlic, and Olive leaf.

Astragalus increases production of white blood cells and strengthens the bodies immune response and vital force. It has an energy boosting action.Formulas incorporating Astragalus are used in China in conjunction with radiotherapy and chemotherapy in cancer patients. Chinese investigators have shown they strengthen the individuals immunity to fight the disease as well as prevent bone marrow depression and gastro-intestinal side effects associated with conventional therapy. Reshi mushroom has been shown to demonstrate anti-tumour and immuno-tonic effects. They increase both DNA and RNA synthesis in the bone marrow and enhance natural killer cell activity. The Japanese government has officially listed Reishi as an adjunct herb for cancer. Privet has been used by the Chinese to nourish the liver and kidney, but as well as this, research has shown that it has the effect of increasing white blood cell count in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

The future of Herpes treatment

Herpes sufferers should keep the cold sores “clean, dry and friction free,” according to the American National Herpes Hotline. That means wearing loose fitting clothes and abstaining even from protected sex. “Exercise, a healthy diet rich in nutrition, weight control and stress management are still the first line of defence against herpes,” So, while science continues to search for cures, lysine therapy, common sense, and prevention remain the most powerful weapons in the war against herpes.

Note: If cold sores develop near the eyes, the cornea can become affected and blindness may result. See an Opthalmologist if the cold sore appears on the forehead, near the eyes or on the tip of the nose.

Commercial cold sore remedies you buy at the drug store are considered mostly comfort treatments. They relieve your discomfort with oils and numbing agents such as lidocaine. And that is good.

But, commercial cold sore remedies do little or nothing for getting rid of cold sores quickly. Natural home remedies still will give you the best results.

The following are some top cold sore remedies that have proven to be excellent at curing your sores. Give them a try. They will work better than most commercial products.

1. GARLIC OIL.

Garlic is an amazing cold sore remedy. Under a microscope, you can watch viruses flee from just the smell of it.

Garlic also has the unique ability to pass right through the skin and attack the virus underneath. Put it on your feet and you will smell it on your breath in less than 30 minutes.

Fresh garlic, either cut or crushed, will give you the very best results.

When it is not convenient, you can buy gel-caps at the vitamin store designed for internal use. Just snip or prick the end off the gel-cap and squeeze the oil right on your cold sores.

If you take garlic internally, it will greatly boost the results of an external application. Plus, you will be more resistant to cold and flu virus too.

2. PEPPERMINT OIL.

Mint is also very strong medicine for healing cold sores. It seems to stop cold sores immediately and heal them in short order. Yes, it smells a lot better than garlic too.

The best way to obtain peppermint oil for safely applying directly to the sore is to buy peppermint gel-caps at the vitamin store. Then, like the garlic caps, you can cut them and apply the oil to the sore area.

There is also available peppermint oil for aromatherapy use. This is extremely concentrated and can burn your skin. Get aromatherapy instructions and follow their directions for diluting it with olive oil.

You can also mix garlic and peppermint oil for an exceptional topical cold sore remedy.

3. TEA BAGS.

Applying heat to any sore will speed healing. This is the case with cold sores that have blossomed open too. It brings a rush of healing blood to the scene.

The best way to accomplish this is by using warm tea bags. Common black tea works great. Black tea with mint or lemon balm will work twice as fast.

Caution. Never heat a tea bag directly in a microwave. Heat the water first, then use the hot water to heat the bag. The microwaves destroy most of the healing benefits of tea.

4. LYSINE.

Lysine is one of the most effective and well-proven treatments you will find. No matter what other cold sore remedies you use, this should always be part of your plan.

Lysine is a common protein found in dairy and fish. It works by reducing the amount of arginine in your cells. Arginine is the protein fraction needed by the herpes virus to create new viruses.

If you stop the herpes replication process, you will prevent – or quickly eliminate – any cold sores. Lysine dramatically hinders this process.

Folks start taking it the minute they feel an outbreak coming on. They continue to take it until the skin is again clear. Normal dosage during this time is 3000 milligrams per day.

Lysine is quite safe. For example, a large serving of Flounder contains about 10,000 milligrams of lysine. For me, I prefer lysine capsules. They are cheap and very convenient to use.

You will find these to be some of the finest cold sore remedies around.

Be sure to try them. You will enjoy great healing results and get your social life back fast using these top cold sore remedies.

You can use either internal or external remedies for treating cold sores. Your best outcome can be achieved by combining both types of remedies at the same time.

If you do, you will be amazed how quickly your outbreaks will disappear using these simple remedies.

A. EXTERNAL TREATMENTS.

Because these sores always appear on the surface, topical remedies are the most popular. Here are some proven and powerful external remedies for treating your cold sores.

1. ICE. If your outbreak is in its early stages, ice works wonders. Ice stops discomfort and swelling. And it discourages the herpes virus from replicating.

Ice will slow down (and sometimes completely stop) your outbreak if applied at the first itching or tingling sign.

2. GARLIC OIL. Use fresh crushed or cut garlic for optimal results. Start applying it as soon as you feel a sore coming on.

Garlic is very anti-virus and has the amazing ability to go right through the skin to the infection. If you do not like the smell of garlic, use oregano or mint oil instead.

3. HEAT. Once your cold sores blossom, stop the ice and use hot, moist tea bags. You are now in the healing stage. Ice slows healing, heat speeds it up.

Tea has great healing properties. Any tea will do, but mint tea is preferred. Use only hot water for warming up the tea bags. Never heat a tea bag directly in a microwave. The radiation ruins much of the benefits of tea.

4. PEROXIDE. You probably already know to continuously cleanse your cold sores. Alcohol soaked tissues are commonly used and work well.

I prefer hydrogen peroxide. It works as well as alcohol for cleansing a wound, but is also rich in oxygen molecules, which will boost your healing speed even more.

B. INTERNAL TREATMENTS.

Internally treating a cold sore will greatly boost the results of any external treatment. It is the only way of actually preventing future attacks.

Here are the two main internal methods of successfully treating cold sores.

1. LYSINE. Lysine stops the virus from getting the protein (arginine) that it needs to build new virus particles. When you accomplish this, you have just slowed down – or prevented – another outbreak.

Lysine must get into the cells for treating a cold sore. The only way for this to happen is to take in lysine orally – not using it topically on the outbreak as some companies claim.

Lysine is rich in dairy products and fish, but it is difficult to get the measured high amounts you need from food alone.

Lysine capsules are much more convenient when you need large dosages. They are cheap and easy to find. Commonly, folks take about 3000 milligrams daily during active cold sores.

2. VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS. If you get a lot of cold sores, you should be taking a good quality vitamin supplement. This is an outstanding way of treating cold sores.

Vitamins A, D and E are essential for healthy eyes and skin – and fast cell and skin repair. Vitamins B and C are the stress vitamins. They protect you from physical effects of stress.

Minerals zinc and calcium are powerful medicine against cold sores. Zinc is a well proven healing and protective mineral. You need 30 milligrams per day.

Calcium is the premier mineral for treating a cold sore. It helps keep your body in a healthy alkaline condition. This is so critical for your health your body will take it from your bones if your intake is deficient.

There you have it.

You do not need expensive store-bought ways of treating a cold sore, just some good home remedies that have proven themselves over many years.

Treating a cold sore and eliminating it quickly is as easy as giving these cold sore remedies a try.
