The Best Cold Sore Remedies
To effectively attack the cold sores and fever blisters on your lips, you need a
little knowledge about what feeds them and what starves them.
Here we present 3 simple things you can do right now, to eliminate your outbreak
in just days instead of weeks.
So if you are feeling the imminent onslaught of sores, or are in the middle of
an outbreak right now, try these three things.
1. Good Cold Sore Remedy Number One: As the Herpes virus
causing the outbreak prefers an acidic environment, making yourself more alkaline
will help. Things that cause you to be acidic are eating acid forming foods such as
Tomatoes, Sugar, Vinegar SodaPop , Candy etc. Your body coping with stress, a cold
or flu and an abnormal sun exposure will also promote acidity. So keep anything
acidic away from the infected area, avoid acid forming foods and reduce stress and
environmental factors, and you will cut your chances of a cold sore infection in
half.
2. Good Cold Sore Remedy Number Two: The virus causing the cold
sore, needs a particular amino acid containing Arginine to propagate. So reducing
or eliminating this from your body will seriously curtail the activity of the virus
and help with the cure. Lysine actively blocks the Arginine and so stops the
further expansion of the virus. So eating food that promotes Lysine and avoiding
food that adds Arginine is a logical way to inhibit the virus from further
expansion, and even reduces it. So eat Lysine containing foods such as meat, milk,
cheese, yogurt. Avoid Arginine promoting foods such as nuts, grains, seeds
chocolate and coffee. Those dietary changes alone should stop your cold sores dead
in their tracks.
3. Good Cold Sore Remedy Number Three: Knowing the effect of
the environment on the virus is useful here.
Research has shown that the Herpes Virus causing your suffering, prefers a warm
moist surroundings. So giving it just the opposite will curtail its activity as
well. Make sure the area around your infection is kept dry and cool. Give it a
little jolt by putting some ice on it for short bursts during the day.
Combining the above three activities, will make things very unappealing for the
virus. It will die off and retract, allowing your body to heal the cold sores in
the process. So try this triple whammy of the best cold sore remedy and get rid of
your cold sores quickly.
