this works miracles for cats with herpes, which usually ends up as an upper respitory infection..so many health providers for animals and humans alike are out to push their drugs and not help u the best way possible..

L-lysine, where is that available? do I have to get it from pharamacy? It is nice to know that I need to be preventing chocolate while I have cold score as I am so addicted to chocolate

I’m not sure, but I think taking the 5-7 gram dosage, like this video says, is meant to be taken only when you have an outbreak.

I agree, it really does work. I have been plagued with cold sores for years and decided to do some research and found this video. You can buy 60 (1000) tablets for £3 to £4 from Holland & Barrett.
Good Luck All.

Do you suffer from painful cold sores? I did too for a very long time. I got them when i was a young child and struggled through my childhood years, shying away from people at school cause i had disgusting cold sores on my lips that had people asking every 5 minutes”what’s that on your lip”. I was tired of living my life like this! Finally i found a way to take control of the situation and reduce my outbreaks to 1 a year and my outbreaks last only 1 day now.

Lysine is good against cold sores. I wrote an article of how to prevent cold sore outbreaks. Check it out, the link is on my profile. You dont have to ever get a cold sore again, you need to know how to prevent.

this is great advice, it makes sense that while you have a cold sore, not to eat stuff that has low abilities to fight viruses…thanks so much!..and ps to all you people out there who get cold sores….you are not alone..tons of ppl get them…and allthough there is a stigma attached to them, they do not in anyway take away from your character, or change your value as a human being…don’t let ANYONE make you feel bad, it is very, very commen, and you can get it a million ways…peace guys!
