L-Lysine for Cold Sores

I have to follow up a post I wrote nearly 4 years ago on L-Lysine for canker sores:

As you can see, my original post was about taking L-Lysine, a natural amino acid, for the treatment of canker sores.

But I'd really like to emphasize its great effect and treatment as well for cold sores.

(To note - in the 4+ years that I have now been taking 500mg L-Lysine/day not one canker sore or cold sore!)

My mother was visiting me  a while back and "felt a cold sore coming on" - that certain tingling on the lip that tells you whats about to pop up. Well I handed her a couple L-Lysine, said her, take 3 a day for the next couple days, it will go away. She really try to resist, I basically forced it upon her. Well, guess what never popped up on her lip?! :) She was a little shy about recognizing the amazing power of the L-Lysine, but I was just happy that it had worked.

Couple months later she called me, "What was the name of that stuff you gave me for the cold sore?"

:)

Its all natural, no side effects, you will notice no difference in taking it other than NO cold sores! I take 500mg/day as preventative. But I have read that as treatment you can take 3/day or 1500mg/day to treat an active eruption, it will really speed up the healing process.

Its very inexpensive at your local drugstore. Try it, and let me know!
