Answer 1

Hi Sexy D

Here are some answers and remedies.

Cold sores are very contagious, and can be spread from the mouth to the genitalia via oral sex.

Cause
Herpes simplex virus is the cause of herpes. HSV causes cold sores on the lips and in the mouth and genital herpes in, on or around the genital area. Although once you contract the herpes virus you have it for life, you can stop outbreaks. They can be controlled and in some cases eliminated.

Nearly all people experience cold sores at least one time during their lives. After the first attack, the virus remains dormant in nerve cells, and can be reactivated later by stress, colds, hot weather, anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, or other illnesses, especially ones with accompanying fever. Prolonged cold sore outbreaks may occur in people suffering from compromised immune function or in healthy people who are under high levels of stress.

Herpes zoster, Coxsackie virus, low thyroid, and health problems that suppress immune function can all contribute to cold sore outbreaks, and must be addressed before long-term relief can be achieved.

Aromatherapy: Geranium, lemon, chamomile, tea tree, and/or lavender essential oils applied topically can help speed the healing process.

Diet: Eat a whole foods diet. Eat lots of fresh green salads, raw and steamed vegetables, cultured, fermented products such as yogurt and sauerkraut. Refrain from dairy products, sugar, white flour and other processed foods. Avoid citrus fruits, including pineapple. Buy organic whenever possible and please eat only organic animal protein.

Drink at least 1/2 your weight in ounces of pure water daily with either stabilized liquid oxygen added or water dispensed from an oxygen water cooler.

Flower Essences: The most useful flower essences for dealing with the accompanying emotional/mental stress of cold sores are Rescue Remedy®, Rescue Remedy Cream®, and Crab Apple.

Herbs: Herbs that boost resistance to cold sores by strengthening the immune response include the tinctures of Echinacea, Siberian ginseng, nettle, and goldenseal. Combine in equal parts and take 1/2 teaspoonful of this mixture three times a day. You can also externally apply diluted tincture of myrrh or calendula. Licorice root tincture applied topically has been shown to inactivate herpes simplex particles and inhibit the growth of the virus.

Hydrotherapy: Hydrotherapy is the application of water, ice, steam and hot and cold temperatures to maintain and restore health. Treatments include full body immersion, steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation and the application of hot and/or cold compresses. Hydrotherapy is effective for treating a wide range of conditions and can easily be used in the home as part of a self-care program. Many Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists and Day Spas use Hydrotherapy as part of treatment. I suggest several at-home hydrotherapy treatments.


Fast Acting Herpes Protocol

This is the natural cure for herpes that Kevin talks about in the book. This protocol works best PRIOR to a herpes breakout, though you can get fast acting results once a breakout is underway by substituting food grade Hydrogen Peroxide for DMSO:

Purchase the following supplies, available at most health food stores or online sources:

DMSO*
Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide
Laurea Herb
Red Marine Algae
Lysine
Calcium
Stabilized Liquid Oxygen

Apply a thin layer of DMSO to the afflicted area, the soles of your feet, and your low back three times per day. Do this when you first feel a breakout may be underway, before an eruption occurs. If you are already broken out, use Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide instead of DMSO. Apply peroxide by dabbing area with a clean cotton swab.

Take Laurea, Red Marine Algae, Lysine and Calcium according to directions on label, twice per day. Look for Lysine in a fast acting tincture formula. These products can be found at a well stocked health food store.

Drink at least half your weight in ounces of pure water daily with either stabilized liquid oxygen added or water dispensed from an oxygen water cooler.

Eat generous amounts of fresh green salads, and raw and steamed vegetables. Refrain from dairy products, sugar, white flour and other processed foods. Buy organic whenever possible, especially when choosing animal protein.

Caution: When applying DMSO on the body use thoroughly clean hands and clean cotton swabs. Take care to be impeccable because whatever substance comes in contact with DMSO gel is absorbed quickly and driven deeply into the body. Avoid contact with dirt until the area is completely dry.

best of health to you

Cheers

I got identified with herpes (type 2) about four yrs ago, whilst I was still in college and had a silly one-night stand. I realize a lot of people say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date other men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone who has sores round her "you know what" area? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/l8hPo everything got better.

Not only was I able to remove all traces of the herpes virus from my system in less than 3 weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so fortunate to write that just a week ago, in front of everyone in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This program gave me back the chance to be happy and experience real love again. Now I want to help others by sharing this story.

Your boyfriend should see a medical professional. Cold sores are from the herpes zoster family, and it sounds to me as though he has herpes. Do not kiss him, and do not allow him to perform oral sex on you, as the virus can pass along to you. Abreva lip ointment can help reduce the inflammation, if it is applied immediately after the symptoms begin to occur, and that can be purchased at any pharmacy without a prescription. Nothing, however, can take the place of medical care!

Answer 7

A cold sore is caused by a herpes virus. But not the herpes virus that is sexually transmitted. Some people are very susceptible to the virus and others are not. If you are getting recurring cold sores then you are just more susceptible than the average person.

Answer 8

Recurring cold sores are normal cold sores. Usually herpes virus 1 on the mouth...although can be herpes virus 2.
Plenty of info on the net.

Answer 9

Its a very very common form of the herpes virus, and people can get it from when they were like 2 years old and some relative came over and kissed them or something, and from then on obviously they pass it around - and they get them occassionally on and off for their whole lives.

Answer 10

You have Herpes I do believe.
