When my daughter had chicken pox, I had treated her with:

  • liposomal vitamin C 6 grams/day in 3 dose
  • vitamin D 5000 ui/day
  • and amino acid Lysine 3000mg/day in 3 doses.

Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, a member of the herpes virus family. The same virus also causes herpes zoster, or shingles, in adults.

Soda bicarbonate bath was used each time she had strong itches only 2 times/day I had to use it with her, around midday and before bedtime only for 4 days, after that she had no itching at all. On the 5th day she had no symptoms anymore the red spots were dry she could not infected her brother sitting next to her every day from day one.
