Preventing Cold Sores - When You Cannot Afford a Cold Sore

Preventing cold sores (fever blisters - oral herpes) was once nearly impossible, but now quite simple. If you will let me explain in this article, you will quickly realize how easily you can be preventing cold sores.

Preventing cold sores, oral herpes and fever blisters can be enjoyed simply by taking high-quality nutritional supplements every single day. You may find that this is all you have needed right along.

Hard to believe you say? I know exactly what you mean. If it works so well, why do so many cold sore victims still not know about it? Trust me - many smart people are preventing cold sores everyday with this one method alone.

In a minute you will discover how vitamins work for preventing cold sores. But first it is important to understand the cause of a cold sore.

If you suffer from cold sore, fever blister or oral herpes events, you carry the herpes simplex virus. Nearly 90% of people worldwide are infected with this parasite virus. Most people are infected in their youth, by 11 years old.

Usually the herpes virus is hibernating in the facial nerve roots - commonly called the nerve ganglia. When it senses an immune system weakness, it will travel to the surface to create new virus. This replication process creates the visible sore.

Anti-bodies are the defense soldiers our body creates when a virus becomes active in our bodies. Each group of anti-bodies specially target the virus for which it was created. Each time the herpes virus becomes active, fresh new anti-bodies are added to the group.

If the correct nutrients are available, these anti-bodies will be a strong force in preventing cold sores. Without the needed nutrients, the anti-bodies will be weak and ineffective for preventing cold sores.

Most of the nutrients needed for preventing cold sores can be obtained from a really good daily nutritional supplement. All the vitamins - A through E - will be helpful against oral herpes. Also, the minerals zinc and calcium are very powerful medicine.

Recent studies now show that calcium deficiency is common in those who have frequent cold sores. Calcium is big against oral herpes, cold sores and fever blisters. Calcium keeps the body alkaline. No virus can get a foothold in an alkaline environment.

Also, vitamins B and C are known to function as anti-stress vitamins because they help reduce the effects of mental and physical stress. And you must have heard by now that stress is the number one cause of cold sore outbreaks.

The oil-based vitamins A, D and E are the most important nutrients for healthy skin. They help repel damage by the herpes simplex virus and repair it quickly when it happens.

You may wonder why we cannot get all these nutrients from food rather than supplements.

Years ago it was possible. Food certainly provides the very best quality, body-ready nutrients. Then our field soils were rich and the fruits and vegetables brimming with vitamins and minerals.

Our fields are becoming more and more depleted of healthy nutrients. Certain nutrients are added back to the soil specifically to make the produce look good in the store. But there is no effort to restore nutrition levels to these foods.

Scientists have shown recently that it would take 59 ounces of spinach today to equal the nutrients in one ounce of 1950 spinach. Tomatoes were found to have only half the nutrients they once did. Our bodies are literally starving.

Scientists feel the lack of essential nutrients in food today is an important factor in the epidemic of viruses, such as herpes simplex, that we see now. Chronic disease is at an all time high.

Preventing cold sores requires us to provide our system the nutrients it needs to form powerful antibodies. Organically grown foods are usually much higher in nutrients. But this, too, will not provide the actual quantity your body needs.

Getting additional vitamins and minerals through daily intake of supplements is one of the easiest and most effective ways of preventing cold sores. It will give your body what it needs for a strong cold sore defense system.

There are several other tips and tactics you can be using. But taking a good, daily vitamin program is the most important first step in preventing cold sores.
