Curious about cold sore cures? Now you can know the truth. In this quick article, I would like to share with you what we have now discovered about cold sore cures.
Some experts tell you there are no cold sore cures.
They believe cold sore cures do not exist because there is no medical way to remove the herpes simplex virus from your body.
They are right in one way. The herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores is a lifetime resident. And there is currently no cold sore cure that can eliminate the virus totally.
The herpes virus is very contagious, tough and is very good at hiding in your nerve cells. Even if you could get rid of this virus, you would likely just catch it again. Nearly 90% of the people around you carry the virus.
ARE COLD SORE CURES A HOAX?
If we can’t get rid of the herpes virus, why are there experts claiming to have cold sore cures?
These experts are talking about eliminating the symptoms. In medical circles, if you get rid of the symptoms you cure the disease. If you prevent the symptoms, you prevent the disease.
Here is a good example. The doctor is able to remove all symptoms of a your cancer. He then declares you cured. He did not remove all the cancer cells. He can’t. We all carry cancer cells in our body every day.
Why should it be any different for cold sores? It is very possible to cure and prevent the symptoms, as you will see shortly.
Without a doubt, cold sore cures are truly real. Whether curing a current cold sore or preventing the symptoms of future attacks, you can bet there are good cures for you to use. I will share some of my favorites in a second.
Without any help from you, your body knows how to cure cold sores. It can do so without any special help from you. But it will take a long time. You will cut this in half by using your best cold sore cures.
Each time you get an outbreak, your body creates new anti-bodies designed to kill or contain the herpes simplex virus. These soldiers do a great job in helping to stop and prevent cold sores.
Cold sore cures are real and you can use them now with little cost or effort.
WOULD YOU TRY THESE COLD SORE CURES?
Before you do anything else, build a strong foundation by starting a good multi-vitamin and mineral regimen. Avoid the one or two per day rip-offs. Go to a vitamin store or on-line and get the best you can afford.
Make sure to take in between 1000 and 2000 milligrams of calcium, and 400 milligrams of magnesium. Your body will be more alkaline, which helps keep the herpes virus inactive. Cold sores occur when your body is slightly acid.
Take lysine supplements or eat high lysine foods. Lysine is a protein that the herpes virus cannot use. In effect, lysine starves out a cold sore by stopping the virus cold.
Get some garlic oil capsules. They are quite handy. Snip open and put the oil on the cold sore area. This works no matter what stage your cold sore is in.
If you catch it early, you can prevent cold sores with garlic. It is truly an amazing herb. Garlic is a strong anti-viral and it goes right through the skin. Be sure to give it a try.
These are just a few of many cold sore cures you can try. I wish I had more room to list them for you. Some work great by themselves. Some work better in combination with others.
WHAT WILL BE THE BEST CURE FOR YOU?
You will have to research and try different methods - not everything works for everybody. But it won’t take long and you will finally discover cold sore cures that work best for you.
