Which Part of the Coconut Could Be Triggering Herpes?

Posted By Bo (Birmingham, Uk) on 03/29/2011

Hi Ted,

I was diagnosed with herpes a while ago and after research I have found that many of the foods I eat may be a trigger, but generally I have an outbreak around my monthely cycle. My question is: I love coconut & coconut water, but am confused as to whether it is the water that is the trigger or the meat of the coconut itself.. Should I eliminate them both?

Eliminate NEITHER, it is die off so continue, just lower the dosage. You can also add a liver support herb like milk thistle and dandelion root to help with die off symptoms.
