Aloe Vera & vitamin E ... my 2 cents

[Aloemen]

I am a new member, and I have "our" common Virus (coldsore)

I use aloe vera.. it helps "sort of" neutralize the blisters, although it is not perfected.... it helps.

My method:

- I literally cut the aloe plant and use the "inside clear jell stuff " (clear slices of the jelly, thowing the green skin away) and cutting the clear jelly slabs into smaller piecies and stick it on the blister with a toothpick, i can feel an instant tingle (although it does not cure it completely) it helps "neutralize" so it doesn't spread, this is an un-orthodox way i guess, althought it has not stopped it completely, i think it helps, it feels good when i put it on... I have used Zovirax, but it leaves a scar, and the ointment seems acid like ( does not feel natural or good)

- I can also use the aloe liquid from the plant and put on sore, but this tends to be messier. so i cut the jelly slabs and put it on blister, it tends to cover the area better and less messier.

ALSO: use

- vitamin E for healing the scar.

thats the best i can give....

any other Natural (herbal, vitamins) or medicinal products, nutritional methods, would be greatly appreciated. please help... Faith...anyone?

thanksAlot

Aloemen,

Aloe can widely work for many things. My mom used to cut aloe and peel it, put the clear part directly on my wound (cut, abrasion, etc), seemed like it healed the wound faster.

Also, read the past posts by Layla. She suggested using Olive leaf extract, dissolving salt water, and Lysine, ....

Best wishes..

Faith

I suppose you've heard a lot of people talk about L-Lysine? It is available in most vitamin sections of the drug store, is a naturally-occuring amino acid that many report keeps the virus at bay.

I read recently online that the best results are reported from those with oral herpes/cold sores. So it seems like you're a good candidate to give it a try. Some people pop 1000 mg 2x a day when they feel an ob coming on, for the duration, and it knocks it back. Others say they take 500mg-1000mg a day as suppression. That's all I know. I have recently started taking it when I feel funky but don't have any conclusions to share yet. Best of luck.

NATURAL

I DONT KNOW HOW LONG HERPES LONG LAST BUT I HAVE A YEAR WITHOUT HERPES AFTER TAKING ALL THOSE NATURAL REMEDIES FOR MY OWN HEALTH. SOMETHING DID WORK IN MY SYSTEM TO CONTROL THE VIRUS BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT. I HAVE BEEN TAKING BEE POLEN, VITAMIN C, A AND MULTILVITAMINS, GINGSEN, AMINO ACID, GRAPE SEED IN POWDER, MACA, ECHINACEA, GINKGO BILOBA AND ROYAL JELLY I THINK NATURAL REMEDIES CAN HELP BUT MOST PEOPLE DO NOT BELIEVE IN NATURAL REMEDIES THE PHAMARCY INDUSTRY DONT WANT YOU TO BE CURE THEY WANT YOU MONEY SO USE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT.
