Cold Sore Cures - Is There Truly A Way To Cure Your Cold Sores?

Cold sore cures? Wondering if there really is are cold sore cures - or are just Internet hype?

This short article should clear up a lot of questions for YOU. Read it now and you will finally know the truth about cold sore cures.

Many experts, such as my good friends at Mayo, state that there are NO cold sore cures.

Other, equally trustworthy professionals, state, YES, there are cold sore cures. And they are being used with much success today by hundreds of thousands of people throughout the world.

Someone lying?

The fact is - they are both absolutely, 100% correct. It just happens that they are not referring to the same thing.

The group saying there are no cold sore cures is right. With their statement, they mean there is no known way to remove the herpes simplex virus from your body once infected. This is known as the cold sore virus.

Right now, the herpes virus is definitely a lifetime resident of your body. No vaccine, nor any other method, has yet been discovered that will find and kill it within the body.

And don't be fooled. Those anti-viral prescription drugs do not work either. They do nothing to rid your body of this tough, parasite virus.

There are better choices, as you will see shortly.

But first, let's set the record straight.

Those who claim viable cold sore cures exist are right also. They are referring to the ability of a remedy to clear your face of a cold sore and prevent future outbreaks.

After all, if you never get cold sores again, is that not a cold sore cure? Who really cares about the cold sore virus, as long as we do not get the actual sores - right?

Think about that.

Every disease in the world is diagnosed based on the symptoms specific to that disease. We all carry pathogens that can cause a variety of serious diseases.

But if your body keeps these germs from creating symptoms, you will not get sick. You do not have the disease.

And if you do get sick, and the doctors can cure the symptoms, they will declare you cured. You see this every day with cancer, as well as other illnesses.

And the same holds true for cold sores, fever blisters and oral herpes.

Nearly everyone in the world carries this highly contagious virus. Yet, a good third of those people will never know it because they will never get an oral herpes cold sore.

Their bodies have built-in cold sore cures. Their immune systems and the associated antibodies do not allow the virus to come out of dormancy.

The rest of us have to work at finding our own cold sore cures.

But one thing is for sure.

We now know ways the herpes virus can be pushed back into hibernation, and kept dormant for up to a lifetime. People are doing it everyday. No reason you can't be one of them.

Do you want to cure a current cold sore? Or are you looking for a way to prevent future cold sores?

Whichever is most important to you at this moment, the very first thing you must do is start taking the highest quality vitamin supplement you can afford.

This one thing is all many folks need to be cold sore free.

In addition, start taking a lysine supplement. This is a very safe amino acid found in fish and dairy products. Flooding your system with lysine, fights cold sores like pouring water on a fire.

Commonly, folks use 2000 to 4000 milligrams of lysine during a cold sore, and 500 milligrams daily for prevention.

There are many other proven cold sore cures. I would love to tell you about them. But it would take pages.

Some will work, others will not.

Often they depend on your immune system being in tip-top shape. You do that with the nutritional boosters mentioned above.

Yes, there definitely are cold sore cures. Some are very simple. Some work best when combined with other methods. You must try different things to successfully discover your own, personal, cold sore cures.
