Cold Sores

A good share of the population now carries the herpes virus.  It comes out and shows as cold sores when the immune system is weak.  The immune system can be weakened in many ways:

• High glycemic index foods suppress the immune system - sugars, refined carbohydrates like breads, crackers, pasta - anything sweet.

• Stress in all its many forms:

• Stress from circumstances

• Stress from foods - stimulants, refined foods, allergens

• Stress from medications

• Emotional stresses from attitudes and neuro-emotional complexes

• Lack of nutrition - poor diet, depleted soils

So, go after the causes above to keep the immune system at its best.

For symptom control, Lysine can often settle down an attack.
