Searching for a Natural Cure for Cold Sores
By Tim Shank

It usually happens at the worst time. Just before something big happens in your life you start to get those early warning symptoms, a little discomfort, some light burning and itching in the area where the fever blister is about to make its appearance. Yes, it usually comes at the most inconvenient moment. What are you to do about it, if you have the problem? What is the cause of cold sores and what kind of cures are available?

Cold sores are not a disease, although the presence of them may in fact seem like a social disease of their own. For the most part, cold sores are an outward appearance of the fact that you have the herpes simplex virus. That in itself is not all that unusual, in fact by some estimates up to 80% of the population is infected with the virus, but only a small minority actually gets the cold sores. For the rest of those that are infected the disease lies dormant in the body for most if not all of their lifetime. Many people run to the drug store at the first sign of a cold sore, but that is not always the best way to go. Medical science has done nothing to cure the disease, they simply treat the symptom. Add to that a list of possible side effects and you will run, not walk to the nearest exit. There is, however, a natural cure for cold sores, in fact there are several.

Many people have had great success in using supplementation when dealing with their cold sores. The amino acid Lysine seems to shorten the length of the cold sores, as well as sometimes even heading off an outbreak in the first place. Other supplements, such as those that have antioxidant qualities (Vitamin C for one) have been shown to help shorten the length of fever blisters. Of course this natural cure for cold sores is not actually a cure at all, it is simply treating the symptoms.

It s time to cure the cause instead of just treating the symptom.
