Great Tip on Reducing the Frequency of Outbreaks - Our Diet!Anything we can do to naturally reduce the outbreaks is worth our interest.I've been reading up on a lot of different dietary and natural remedies and supplemets for herpes. I don't like taking perscription drugs for long periods, so I would like to naturally keep my immune system boosted. When we speak of diet concerns with herpes , one major area of focus is our Arginine to Lysine amino acid balance. Foods and supplements high in Lysine have been clinically proven to reduce the ability of the herpes virus to feed on needed Arginine and thus reduce outbreaks. The herpes virus feeds on arginine, an amino acid , allowing it to aggravate and bring on outbreaks. The foods high in Arginine include : brown rice, oatmeal, whole wheat bread, nuts, seeds, raisins, chocolate and caffeine. The foods high in Lysine include: chicken, cheese, Beef, dairy products, eggs, fish , potatoes, soybeans. If you experience frequent outbreaks be conscious of how much coffee, chocolates and nuts you consume. A few milligrams is OK , but keep tabs and see if regulating their intake helps. Lysine (also referred to as L-lysine) does the opposite of Arginine and reduces the ability of the herpes virus to become active. The Virus needs Arginine, while Lysine has been shown to restrict the ability of the herpes virus to feed on Arginine. An easy way to be certain you have a good ratio of Lysine to Arginine is to take supplements of Lysine tablets such as Dynamiclear's Combined Lysine Formula with Vitamin C, Zinc and Bioflavonoids. We highly recommend this because it is a high quality product that uses pure vs synthetic ingredients and contains all the recommended supplements for herpes in one tablet, making it cost effective. They use no fillers such as corn, dairy, gluten, nuts, sugar, wheat, yeast, artificial colorings, flavorings or preservatives. Another important supplement for us is Vitamin C and Zinc – These help the skin to repair, regenerate and heal more efficiently. They also help to strengthen the skin's resistance against infections. Clinical studies have shown that taking zinc supplements can help to reduce the frequency, intensity and duration of herpes outbreaks. This is attributed to zinc's ability to enhance cell mediated immunity. Vitamin C and zinc both have wound healing properties and Vitamin C is vital to the production of collagen (a fiber that connects and strengthens connective tissue, such as the skin). Order Pure Lysine with Vitamin C, Zinc and Bioflavonoids |
