Curious about cold sore cures? Now you can know the truth. In this quick article, I would like to share with you what we have now discovered about cold sore cures.

Some experts tell you there are no cold sore cures.

To them, cold sore cures are ways of removing the herpes simplex virus completely. And, right now, there is no cure we know of to do this.

Correct are they in one way. The herpes simplex virus is definitely with you for life. There are no cold sore cures that can remove the virus from your body.

The herpes simplex virus is a master at hiding. It is also extremely tough and contagious. Even if you could remove it from your body, you would quickly be re-infected. Nearly nine out of ten people you know carry the virus - even if THEY do not know it.

ARE COLD SORE CURES A HOAX?

OK - you cannot get rid of the herpes virus. Then why are some experts telling us cold sore cures do exist?

Experts that claim cold sore cures are real are talking about removing and preventing the symptoms of cold sores. This is common in medical circles. You get rid of the symptoms of a disease and you have cured it.

For example, if the doctor declares you cured of cancer, it means he was able to remove all the symptoms of cancer. He did not and cannot remove all the cancer-potential cells from your body.

Why should it be any different for cold sores? It is very possible to cure and prevent the symptoms, as you will see shortly.

There definitely are cold sore cures in spite of what you may have heard. You can use them to cure a current sore or prevent future occurrences. There are many methods you should try. I will give you some in a minute.

Without any help from you, your body knows how to cure cold sores. It can do so without any special help from you. But it will take a long time. You will cut this in half by using your best cold sore cures.

Each time you get an outbreak, your body creates new anti-bodies designed to kill or contain the herpes simplex virus. These soldiers do a great job in helping to stop and prevent cold sores.

Cold sore cures are real and you can use them now with little cost or effort.

WOULD YOU TRY THESE COLD SORE CURES?

Before you do anything else, build a strong foundation by starting a good multi-vitamin and mineral regimen. Avoid the one or two per day rip-offs. Go to a vitamin store or on-line and get the best you can afford.

Make sure you take in as much as 2000 milligrams of calcium daily. This will help keep your body pH in the alkaline range. The herpes virus cannot get traction unless stress causes your body to go acid.

Lysine is an awesome cure for a cold sore. Flood your body with lysine by eating high lysine foods or supplements. It works for many to stop cold sores fast.

Apply garlic oil to the cold sore area. The best is to use crushed fresh garlic, but you can get garlic oil in capsules. You just cut the end off of the capsule and apply.

Garlic is amazingly strong medicine against nearly any pathogen. It actually penetrates the skin in just minutes. Don’t be shy - give it a try. You can even use it to prevent cold sores from actually breaking out.

These are just a few of many cold sore cures you can try. I wish I had more room to list them for you. Some work great by themselves. Some work better in combination with others.

WHAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU?

Not all cold sore treatment methods work for everyone the same way. You must experiment and combine until you find success. I assure you, in no time you will uncover the personal cold sore cures you are seeking.
