Effective Natural Treatments for Genital Herpes Relief

Vitamin C

I was diagnose with genital herpes around 1996, from that time I had to take medicine for that every 3 repetitions by year. In 2001 I started to take a daily dose of 500mg of Vit C, and after 9 years my genital herpes never returned. I continue taking Vit C without any side effects.

For men who have genital herpes outbreaks I have developed a system for applying a small apple cider vinegar compress to the affected area on the penis. I go the 99 cent store and buy small condoms that are too small to use when having sex. However, they are the perfect tension to keep the apple cider vinegar compress (either cotton pad or viva paper towel) on the penis herpes in order to work its magic.


BHT

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

This is an update from Michele in Waterbury. After taking BHT daily for three years, which was successfully managing my Genital Herpes outbreaks, I started having digestive problems. Constant gas, discomfort, bloating, intolerence of wheat and hemorrhoids. I read on this site that if you have hemorrhoids, you have a yeast infection in your gut. I am wondering if the daily dosing of BHT caused an im-balance in my gut and that now I have an overpopulation of yeast in my gut. I had to stop the BHT, and am treating the gut yeast infection with raw garlic and pre-biotics. I feel much better, but I can see that it will take some time to get back to normal. If I stop the raw garlic, the symptoms return. Since BHT is a preservative that kills bacteria, I think it killed off the good bacteria in my gut. Anyone else having gut problems?

I am treating the Genital Herpes with a prescription anti-viral. Just wanted to let people knonw, that if you are treating GH with BHT, and experiencing digestive problems, it may just be the BHT.

If you are having gut issues, likely could be unrelated to BHT, an epidemic of allergies especially gluten, soy, and corn are snowballing because of GMO changes in recent years.


BHT
Posted by Linda (Tyler, TX) on 05/14/2022

Thanks for sharing about the digestive issues. With this recent outbreak, I've had a loss of appetite, diarrhea, indigestion, some nausea and nothing food-wise appeals to me. Generally, when having a breakout, I feel literally sick and extremely fatigued. This time the symptoms are worse so I'm wondering if it's the BHT. I've stopped all supplements to see if I feel better and if some of the digestive symptoms leave. This is a horrible disease.


Hydrogen Peroxide
Posted by D (Pines, NJ) on 04/13/2009

Seriously, try 20% cream Hydrogen Peroxide on a cotton ball and lightly press it on the area. Apply everyday until it's completely gone. I'm on Valtrex and Zovirax but hydrogen peroxide has done more for me and my symptoms are gone (for now I expect). This is my 1st outbreak so we'll see. I still need to convince my bf that he's got it. He has no symptoms and doesn't believe that he gave it to me, but he had tender lymph nodes on both sides. My doctor confirmed that this is a primary breakout for me.

My bf has been in Iraq for the past 6 mos. and he was here 3 weeks ago for leave. Two weeks after he left I developed symptoms. During a routine exam my doc saw a tiny pinhead sized bump (looked like a goosebump) and asked me if I had oral sex with anyone in the past few weeks. He did a swab of the area and five days later told me it wasn't the cold sore variety but genital herpes. This f---- sucks because I didn't get anything from my bf before. He probably got it in Iraq. lol WTF

Extra Rinse Your Underwear
Posted by TIM (BRISBANE, QLD AUSTRALIA) on 03/18/2009
★★★★★

I have found that putting my underwear through an extra rinse cycle, I haven't had an H2 outbreak for over a year. Previously I suffered for 2 years from monthly, bi-monthly and sometimes non stop out-breaks for months on end. I believe that the laundry detergent residue left on my underwear was the trigger for all of my outbreaks. I found that rinsing my underwear again got rid of the left over detergent and the cause of my outbreaks.

I just found out last week that I tested positive for HSV-2. I have been looking at internet information for a cure. I do believe there is actually a cure out there because all things are possible. I am looking for a cure not a outback treatment. The doctor says it is a life time disease but I don't believe such a thing. 1) Is there someone that has actually re-tested with negative result? 2) What was you cure regiment? 3) How long did it take you to rid yourself from the disease? I understand that diet, exercise, and herbs, low stress, spiritual balance will help in immune system health. I have heard of people being cured AIDS, so I know herpes can be cure. If anybody can actually help let me know. Remember responses for cures not just outbreak treatments. I know there are real people that have been actually cured out there. Please and thank you for your help.

Hi David from Atlanta. I was tested positive for HSV-2 just last July 2008. I have experienced a day or 2 rest for a 5 month long continuous outbreaks and I was so desperate and looked everywhere for relief, remedy and cure. I have tried a lot of suggested medicines, home remedies etc., that was listed in this very helpul site. But as weeks go by, I have discovered a herbal drink from Philippines that was a very big help to this disease. For your info, I have a very weak immune system and I think if someone with a normal or much stronger immune system than mine, I guess taking this drink would be more effective. I saw the changes and progress of my immune system after i drank the first 2 sachets. It's called _____, it's quite known now in the Philippines, for it has cured a lot of sickness and diseases, and as for my HSV-2... i don't know if it has cured me, but it did gave me hope and still think strong of my future. I have a friend who sells this in Thailand, and in Manila.

To support more for my body's defenses, I drink 2 cups of GreenTea everyday, as this is equivalent to 8 apples, which has more vitamin C than citrus. I take Centrum, 1000mgs VitC, 400IU VitE.. yeah! it's not hard, it's just that my immune system is very weak so I just have to find more support. Of course, nothing is possible without the help of God, a prayer full of faith.

God bless!

Rubbing Alcohol
Posted by Danny (Singapore) on 02/07/2009

Marilyn from Calgary ...Please do not use rubbing alcohol although it may help. According to Dr Hulda Reghr Clark rubbing alcohol , which is propyl alcohol, together with an intestinal fluke called fasciolopsis buskii, are two factors invariably implicated in cancer cases. Stabilized Oxygen and an extract of garlic called allicin (available for both internal and external use), among other natural remedies, would be be preferable. 'First of all do no harm'!


Rubbing Alcohol
Posted by Anonymous (La Costa, CA) on 02/24/2009

QUESTIONS FOR TED:

1. Do you think using rubbing alcohol to fight herpes is a good idea or do you feel that it is a harmful chemical for the body?

2. I have continuous breakouts...FOR YEARS. I mean I pretty much NEVER go without some sign of a break out (Genital herpes...and it breaks out only on my lower back and buttocks region). This is driving me crazy. Do you feel that I cannot use honey or black strap molasses for remedies. Also, when a new breakout occurs, it screws up my digestive system and causes me to have constipation.

3. Also, recently, I have been having a burning feeling in my right breast and under my rib case. Do I need a liver gall bladder cleanse? I eat quite well--lots of salads, fruits, veggies, no processed foods (however, up until a couple of years ago, I ate lots of ice cream and some other sweets--even though it made me break out.) I can't eat nuts--that really aggravates a break out--especially if combined with chocolate. I haven't been eating any sweets now--except for a little honey (up to 1 TBSP) and a little Black Strap Molasses (1-2 TBSP). It seems like if I eat the black strap molasses, I break out--which makes me mad because I like the energy from BSM and honey. I am so sick of this! I was diagnosed with this in 1998, but had a lot of nerve pain on since 1980 (primarily on one side of my body). One thing I will say is that I have less pain and flu symptoms, especially since taking the ACV.

So again, my questions are: 1. Rubbing Alcohol--good or bad? 2. Honey and BSM? 3. The burning in my right breast plate/rib area.

Thank you in advance.

Oregano Oil
Posted by Liz (Boulder, Co) on 08/17/2009

I have just starting taking Oregano oil everyday, so I don't know if it is working yet but I am hoping for the best. I heard about it through my stepfather he lives by the stuff (for everything). My brother also takes if to boost his immune system. He has been taking it everyday for the last 4 years and hasn't gotten sick. Therefore, I think is is safe to take on a daily base. I take 4 drops of it in the morning and 4 drops at night. I also rub it on the base of my spine since that is where the virus lives and the oil will seep in through the skin.

I am suffering from Herpes for the past 8 years and have tried several medication such as pills like Herperex and also the Herperex cream etc. the Herprex Pills are very effective but time going by things change, the strength of the pill has to be increased, in my case when the strength of the pill was increased I started suffering with a pain in my chest. However, two years ago I had to be hospitalised for a stroke (not due to the madication or due to Herpes) and just after my stroke the symptoms begone to appear but not for very long in 2 to 3 days the symptoms disappeared and later I was wondering how and later I realised that I was given King Coconut to drink, later a many times when I got the symptoms I started drinking King Coconut and within a max 2 to 3 days it disappeared, sometimes if taken at the very early days of the symptoms then Herpes disappears within 1 to 2 days. Look for the King Coconut which is orange in colour this is mainly available in countries like India, Sri Lanka, Maldives etc. if not drink the one available in your country. Also for Cucumber the symptoms disappear, it cools your system, the main cause of Herpers once infected is the body heat, eat cooling things, do not eat heaty food like prawns, lobster, pork or anything heaty, prawns are very heaty anyone suffering from Herpes will notice the symptoms the next after eating prawns but if raw lime juice is sprinkled over prawns the possibilities are that you may see a delay in Herpes coming up.

Genital herpes Diet: I am aware that a healthy diet is important to prevent an outbreak of GH. Some readers swear to lay off peanuts, chocolate, oats, beer, wine, sugar, artificial sweetener etc. etc.

I wonder if a kind contributor could list out the type of food to avoid totally and also a recommended list to take to for GH sufferers.
Please pardon my ignorance. I am not sure whether the food I take is doing me any good. I take milk( pastuerised good milk) yoghurt, multigrain & wholewheat bread, hard cheese (Edam & Gouda). I also like brown rice, pasta, chicken,pork, salmon, ham, fresh salad. For fruits, I love banana. I heard it is a no no. Others include quava, grapefruit, kiwifruit, papaya, pineapple. I hope someone can point out which food/fruits I am taking is not suitable for me.

My GH regimen includes LLysine, BHT, Olive extract, Zinc, magnesium.
Hoping for a favorable response.
Thanks

If you google something such as "high lysine foods," you will find a complete listing of all of the foods that are ok for herpes, since high lysine foods are what starve the virus.

Papaya, beets, mango, apricots, applees, pears, loquat, figs, avacados, tomato juice and soybeans have the highest lysine content. Bananas are a no no because the lysine/arganine content is of equal ratio. Fish, meats and cheese are all high in lysine as far as I can tell, though I am just learning about this diet myself.

I contacted a friend of mine a month ago when I first contracted herpes. She has been dealing with it for a number of years and she highly recommended a zapper and sent me a link. I ordered it (she should know best) and have been doing it 2 times a day every day, including as many high lysine foods as possible and ACV. I am getting very good results - my only problem seemed to be recontamination, but the man is gone as of last week, so now I should be a-ok. The zapper is strange - it weakens the cell walls so suppliments and medicines become more effective.

Good luck to you - I am going to try to get a hold of an olive leaf...that sounds very interesting.

Hi Robyn, Blood is the carrier of all diseases.

You should try rebuilding your blood cells rather killing bacteria and viruses.

Have you tried Wheat Grass Juice. Wheat Grass Juice builds your blood, the wheat grass juice molecular formula is itself similar to Heamaglobin except it has magnesium than iron in Heamaglobin. It is anti parasitic, which would kill the pathogens.

You should give it a try, in addition take natural home made probiotic foods like: Milk Kefir, Saurkraut, Miso, Kombucha tea, Umeboshi

thanks

Hi Robyn, I am actually going to give you the link to the terminator zapper that I use. That way you can read about it yourself and then come to your own conclusions about whether it will work for you or not.

http://wolfcreekranch1.tripod.com/terminator_zapper.html

I know you are extremely sensitive so I can't say whether you will handle it or not. I have never felt any stinging or itching but they say that if it begins that way, it will decrease as the body becomes clean.

As for the earthing mat, I'm glad to hear you are using the grounding rod and that the tingling you experienced in the beginning is gone. Perhaps this will be your experience with the zapper. Wish you the best, Lisa

Hi mmsg, I eat lots of greens, all of which I can throw on a BBQ, 5 or 6 a day, wheatgrass often put oregano and coconut oil on them and organic when I can get it beef or lamb, leanest I can find. Ive added in beetroot and mushrooms after hearing about them on Dr Oz and reading on here. That's it. I musnt cheat. The depression is bad!!!

Hello edo2010, have organic wheatgrass powder every morning for a yr now. remember Im living in a car, thats the best I can do but it tastes pretty similar to the real thing. I have no less symptoms but my scans show the brain tumor has gone & the very calcified arteries for my age are also gone. Pity the pain and allergies didnt go with them but I will continue with wheatgrass for the rest of my life, even though it doesnt seem like theres going to be much of my life left. Perhaps by some miracle I can fix these other things. Perhaps we'll get stem cell treatment in Aust.

Robyn, just a few past experiences:

1. If you can tolerate lemon, you might want to up your intake of that.

When a family member of mine was taking it daily, and his house got infested with bedbugs, and it was mosquito season, everyone got bitten except for him. This might mean that the "bad bugs" don't like lemon, or ppl ingesting it!

2. Another family member resorts to "only fruit and veggies" when Crohn's strikes. It never fails them. Raw or cooked doesn't seem to make much difference here.

Thanks for the information. I had been consuming coconut oil to thwart outbreaks then decided to try mms for other reasons. In researching mms, I learned some have had success keeping hsv2 at bay. Yesterday that proved to be true. I had the sensation that the virus was active although I had no sores. I did take a few different things.. Olive leaf extract, a heaping tbs of extra virgin coconut oil internally (in addition to cooking with it) and evco externally (just in case). The sensation had subsided, but a distinct pain I get on my right side which can vary from hip to foot remained. I was on the verge of taking a pain killer but decided to take mms instead. Within a few hours the pain was completely gone. This morning no sensation remained. I chalk it up to a combination of both coconut oil and mms, but really it can be either or.

I am now still in early stages of using H2O2, so am avidly reading the entries for Candida. For herpes, I was clued into l-lysine some years ago, and it is great. Foods high in L-lysine are listed on the internet, and also foods high in arginine, which is in chocolate, nuts, popcorn, brown rice and other foods. Arginine is used in labs to GROW the Herpes virus, so those chocolate and nut snacks can give you an attack! I have purchased l-lysine over the internet and also at some grocers and health food stores, and just keep it handy. Often when I want to eat some chocolate, I pop some l-lysine soon after and no problem. It is a harmless amino acid and resets the balance in your system.

Candex is very good for Candida but so expensive, I am happily taking the H2O2 and wanted to check increasing the dosage from 8 drops in an 8 oz glass of water 3X a day and here is all this information for me! My Mother and Grandmother died young of breast cancer and I began researching things that cure cancer as I realize the AMA is not chock full of 100% doctors, and found ESSIAC. The herbs can be purchased pre-measured from the Herb Products Company in Hollywood. I am 62, teach yoga and breathing techniques, doing them myself daily and am very healthy!

Hi, i have read some of the feedback on your site and found it very interesting. I contracted genital herpes in 1981-2. I went to a clinic and they gave me the bad news. I asked what should i do when i get the outbreak as it was so painfull. The answer i got was "run and bath of warm water and pee it that ". mmmm very good. At that time there was no cream on the market or any other forms of treatment so it was a case of suffering for many days. I get the itch and the sore leg and the depression. But as time has gone on it has lessened and i have very few attacks so count myself luck in some respects but let me say i had my share and have sympathy with anyone who has herpes now even with all the treatments you can take. I did start to use a cream after many years called Zovirax which helped a lot.I do find or have found that a healthy diet and i don't mean drinking diet drinks and eating dietary food i mean eating veggies and drinking plenty of water seems to have helped me. I also do eat plenty of garlic and love spicy food.I also think that getting depressed about having herpes actually does not help as the depression brings on the attack. Maybe i am wrong but i feel that feeling down doesn ot help.So try and keep positive about the situation. Man it's not going to kill u unless u give it to the wrong person ahahahah.

I have found a product called Traveler's Friend 'Citrus Seed Extract' which the health food shop assistant said he was sure was mostly Grapefruit seed extract. I tried it amongst many things I am exploring having contracted herpes. I am improving every day and continuing with oral coconut oil, colloidal silver and (carefully diluted hydrogen peroxide). The reason why I'm posting this is that I had three small blisters appear on the top of my p----. As well as all the rest of my genitals being affected this was too much. I put a drop of grapefruit seed extract on these three (they were close together). To my huge surprise within half an hour they had retreated, then got small scabs and healed far quicker than anything else has!! WARNING: I then got excited and put the gfs extract on other larger sores, and suffered severe pain which I think was a result of this. Nonetheless, the incredible speed at which the gfs extract turned those three sores (painlessly) into final phase needs to be mentioned and is surely worth exploring. I am now taking gfs extract orally (15 drops in a glass of water 3x/day and may increase)

Mr Waitrose Soap man, I can't tell how happy I am to read your message. Not so much about the soap as I'm in the middle east currently and waitrose's upper class clientele isn't to be found here! But just generally your experience gives me hope. I'm coming up for my 2 year anniversary of getting this wonderful virus, and in the last 6 months my outbreaks have increased to about 1 a month- it's getting ridiculous and to the point where it's all I think about! Plus, I've been off the booze (due to the country I'm in) for 6 months, yet that has made it worse. My diet is pretty good although I do eat a lot of peanuts so I just hope if I continue to keep a decent diet it will get easier. OF course when I get back to blighty I'll try this special soap and some apple cyder vinegar for shits and giggles as well.

WARNING!

I had used astroglide with warming last week and immediately I got bacterial vaginosis, my lymph nodes swelled, and I had a herpes outbreak (worst one in about 15 years).

I am not sure if the astroglide caused the BV and outbreak because I have used regular astroglide before with no problems. It could also be the lidocaine my boyfriend used to desensitize his penis and prolong his erection.

If anyone knows about lidocaine or astroglide causing BV and herpes outbreaks; let me know.

I am currently taking L-Lysine capsules (2000 mg a day), ACV, Acidopolis, and Folic acid.

My husband and I have been using coconut oil as a lubricant for a long time. The coconut oil soothes my skin whereas other lubes I have used would just irritate me. It was a pain to have to heat the oil every time to get it to liquefy and of course scooping it out of a jar isn't hygienic unless you use a spoon - another mood killer. During my OB appointment last month my doctor recommended a product called SemPure. It is 100% coconut oil, but stays liquid at room temperature. No more heating or scooping! We have been using for a few weeks and love it. Like other oils we can't use it with latex, but it does fine with polyurethane condoms.

Posted by K-t (Las Vegas, Nevada) on 05/02/2012

Thank you, This is true I think. I have GH. But with the herbs and lysine I take. Mostly few outbreaks...

But I noticed that with condoms. I was getting small OB everytime. Condoms with lube. So now I understand. Thank you. And I hope other notice this too. Sex is important to me, so finding best way to act normal. Is great!!


Genital Herpes Triggers
Posted by Katherine (Vancouver, Canada) on 05/14/2008

Thank you all for the information regarding clearing up and preventing outbreaks. I've suffered from GH for about 10 years. I find my outbreaks are related to a latex sensitivity that I have. If I use prophylactics that are non-latex, I don't usually have much of an issue. Problem is, these products are very expensive. Also have found that excessive sugar in my diet can easily bring on an outbreak. Sun seems to counteract this. I think outbreak triggers and methods of clearing up outbreaks are very personal and different for everyone. Thank you all for sharing though, gives me possibilities to try.

I just started on SLO and hopes it works. It acts as a cleanse as well. I am on day 2. Will keep u posted and will definitely get retested. I am using lecithin 4 daily since someone says it works and they r cured. The doctors are liars and want $ so a cure in their book is not possible. I have changed my diet and now feels hopeful.

L-Lysine, Oregano Oil, Cell Food

I just found out that Cellfood contains arginine, which increase the breakout of herpes. How can this possibly help heal if it is contradicting?


L-Lysine, Oregano Oil, Cell Food

★☆☆☆☆

Hi. I have found that taking cell food was causing me to get outbreaks! I wasn't sure until I stopped taking it for a while then started taking it again. Sure enough, after the first day of taking it, I got an outbreak. Happens with stabilized liquid oxygen too. Not sure if the oxygen brings the virus out to kill it or what, but will not use it anymore as I don't want anymore outbreaks.

I contracted herpes several years ago and after the first outbreak all the other ones have been mild and only happend 3-4 times a year, but suddenly last week I did get quite a strong outbreak, still not as bad as the first one, but quite major. Its already subsided after 4-5 days as I have been megadosing on Vitamin C and most importantly Lysine. 6g of C and 4 g of lysine I would suggest that suppplimentation of lysine, around 1500-2000 mg every day forever will help with mitigating recurances.

I am writing about severe, non-responsive, apparently untreatable genital herpes.

I have had herpes for tweny years. It was never a huge problem till two years ago when I came down with a painful outbreak with swollen genital glands, which have continued to this day. No anti-viral or natural remedy has had any effect. I have had continuous outbreaks while on anti-viral medications. I have also been in a state of constant outbreak for the past two months,so painful that I cannot stand it. At first I though BHT was working, but it didn't. I am on daily: BHT 3,150 mg Lysine 3000 mg Zinc, 50 mg Vit C w/bioflav 2000mg Vit A 24,000 IU Vit E 1600 IU Selenium 200 mg B50 2 per day Vit B1 1000mg Ted's Apple Cider Vinegar recipe Applied topically: ACV Hydrogine Peroxide Black tea

I am in terrible pain; please help me if you can. Many thanks

Poor you L :(, I'm going through the same thing 3 months not stop burning during peeing, bladder pain, bloated abdomen and just feeling like complete crap.. I've tried Valtrex for 2 years and towards the end I was in agony I was in so much pain.. I'm taking Lysine now, I don't know if it works.. But if your bladder burns try Baking Soda and water about half a teaspoon to one teaspoon in a glass in the morning at at night.. Try it for a week.. Also get a lot of sleep.. I hope this helps...

Funny story... Well not really. I had a bump on my labia, went to the Dr and was advised that it looked like genital herpes. The Dr took a sample culture and ran blood test. Blood test came back positive for HSV-1, however some how the culture was too warm to test and the bump was gone. After reading some of these post Im not 100% sure the bump was Herpes, I didnt experience tingling and pain, just a little soreness and an itch. But this has happened twice, Jan 2012 and June 2012.... Bump similar in nature but on opposite sides of the outer labia. But because I did test positive for HSV1, although I've never had a cold sore, I am going to go ahead and try preventative/curative remedies. The first this I saw online that spark my attention was Oil of Oregano! I ordered it immediately from a distributor out of Greece it is 83-85% carvacol. Cant wait for it to arrive!!!

Question....Cured from New York.... Did you have blood test ran after completing your 2 months of using this? Im just curious what the results showed?

Having oregano flakes on my veggies - will this help a little? Im trying to kill parasites and yeast infections. Also take caprylic acid, coconut oil, garlic.

Take 3 to 4 drops in a shot glass of hot water, then immediately chase it with another shot glass of coconut milk. This will pretty much end the bad taste issue.


Oregano Oil

Stay off suppressive meds. They don't actually suppress the virus, they suppress how your immune system responds to the virus to lessen the appearance of outbreaks. I have stopped my outbreaks doing the following.

Chaga mushroom tea, which I make I buy the chaga mushroom online in a grainlike form and you seep the grains of the mushroom in warm water not boiling but almost it tastes like spicy vanilla, Chaga is a antioxident and amazing immunesystem boster you should look up about chaga this is some info on what the heck it is its a fungus and truelly it kills virus and such its awsome.

The Oregano oil is awsome tastes horrible foul springs to mind oregano oil the wild organic mediteranean version with 75 % carvacrol it is great stuff truly awsome when u get a outbreak put the oil in the mouth on any oral sores it stops the itching and it does help when u first start taking this the outbreaks get less and less I recomend it.

Basically it lowers lvls of metals in your blood and its anti viral and such hsv 1 and hsv2 love to thrive and the oregano seems to knock them dead.

Think about this logically, most of the meds out there are actually derived from nature and they basically put masses of modified chemicals in also the pharma companies., they put enough things in to supress but not to cure if they cure it think how much money they loose. Frankly also my aunt's a doctor and you know that doctors take a huge bonus from med companies for prescriptions they hand out and people turn in for meds.

As a doctor you learn all these methods to treat but you're not going to give those out cos u sign a nice agreement with the government and pharma companies stopping you from doing so legally binding contracts. sure you tell your family and such of other more benefical means. My aunt is a doctor told me to say the hell of acyclovir its like a total poison to your body after taking in a few yrs outbreaks will hit u like a truck cos you spent 2 years hitting your immunsystem with hard meds that actually damage you in the longrun. all those side effects its a sign of toxic reactions to chemicals in your body your body hates these chemicals and its fighting them as well as the virus and you just get more and more sick.

Avoid arginine rich foods coffee nuts chocolate and big no no is grapes, alcohol knocks your body also basically live as healthy as u can and avoid processed foods as much as u can, put good foods in your body and stack up on vitamin D3 builds on your immunity. basically make your body strong and you stop that nasty hsv coming out not by supression but by keeping it under raps yourself.

L-lysine basically if you been eating a bunch of l-aranine rich foods take a bunch of the l-lysine to knock back the hsv, it is known for thriving on l-arganine and helps the replication of the virus.

Also drink lemon change your ph lvls to make your body a hostile enviroment for hsv. Basically its chemistry and researching about the virus what it likes doesnt like and finding the right balance for you.

I had been using peroxide since I had seen it mentioned on several internet support sites. I continued to have the worst outbreaks in years. Told my doctor and he said Hydrogen peroxide antagonizes herpes so I stopped and the severity of the problem was cut in half in a few days. Monolaurin has helped but you need about 3 grams a day during outbreaks but it does work very well compared to the three antivirals my dr put me on. No peroxide on the sore is my advice.

Tea Tree Oil
Posted by Nicole (Dallas, Texas, Usa) on 06/03/2010
★★★★★

Tea Tree Oil is the only thing that has worked for me. As soon as I feel any tingle or pain or itch I put some on a cotton pad and apply it to the area for about an hour.Then for the next 24 hours I apply it after using the restroom. If I catch it as soon as I feel anything I can abort the outbreak. If I dont get it till the blisters are already forming it usually cuts the outbreak down to 24 hours or less. I also have found taking lysin and ST. Johns wort 3x a day has really boosted my immunity and provided less breakouts.

Stabilized Oxygen
Posted by Im Free (Charlotte, Nc) on 09/08/2011

I believe oxygen is the way to go however this is my method. I use Baking Soda water, Its very alkaline and it raises your ph balance in your body killing viruses. I test my urine with ph strips and see that my body stays at around 7.2 ph. However from my understanding Baking soda water can strip other vitamins away. SO I take Vitimans made from bee products to replenish what the soda can take away. I usually have 2 or three outbreaks every one two two weeks, but since Ive been doing this ive been outbreak free over a year. Im sure your other products work but bakind soda is 2 bucks and its last a while. The be vitams run me 20 bucks a month but you may find vitamins cheaper or better but the combination of the two has worked wonders

PS

A teaspoon in a 16 onz bottle is enough two much and the taste is not pleasent what also helps is letting the bottle sit for a while letting the baking soda disolve a lil.

Add to Lysine, Lauricidin Monlaurin supplement. You can ever buy a combo thru Solaray. The only time I had a new outbreak was when I took a break from them. I now also take a shot of ACV daily... and going to try Essaic tea (with the sheep sorrel root, not just leaves).
