COLD SORES - HERPES

COLD SORES - HERPES

It is believed that somewhere between 50% and 80% of the population has the herpes simplex, the virus that causes cold sores. The issue is that herpes simplex mostly lies dormant in the body and very rarely reactivates.

Cold sores or fever blisters are viral infections. They are tiny, fluid-filled blisters on and around the lips that heal in two to four weeks. Once one has the virus, it stays for life and the cold sores can come back at any time.

In clinical experience, MSM’s anti-inflammatory benefits helped relieve the pain and reduce the recurrence and the healing time of recurring episodes.

One good reason to use the MSM sulfur nutritional supplement is that it will also help with all kinds of other ailments one may have together with this one, proven by over thirty years of clinical experience and without any side effect.

The suggested dosage as in most other disorders is 2,000 to 6,000 mg of MSM daily in the form of crystals or capsules to see if it helps. Start with the lower dose and increase slowly as you go until you reach the level that seems to bring the episodes further apart. If the episodes keep occurring, without any improvement, just stop taking the MSM. However, depending on one’s age, as one gets older, as is explained in Dr. Jacob’s book and on this website, one should take more MSM to keep the body functioning as it should.

The book The Miracle of MSM reports the following testimonial and more:

A young heptathlete, at Ball State University in Indiana, had been suffering from shin splints since high school. Shin splints are inflammations of the muscles on the shins. Heptathlete compete in high jump, long jump, shot put, javelin, two-hundred and eight-hundred-meter runs and hundred-meter hurdles.

One of her friends on the track team recommended her to try the MSM sulfur nutritional supplement because it helped her with the same shin splints.

After two weeks taking 1,000 mg a day of the MSM sulfur nutritional supplement, she already felt relief and after one month she was pain free, even with hard workouts. Not only did MSM help her with the shin splints, but she also got relief for her cold sores problem.

My note: I hope someone told her that the MSM would also increase her energy and by so help her in her sport.
