Powerful Immunity To Cold Sores

Powerful Immunity To Cold Sores

By:


You can be immune to cold sores by taking a good vitamin and mineral supplement every day. Here is what you should be doing right now to build immunity to cold sore outbreaks. Thousands are doing this every day and you can too.

When your body is infected with a virus, it manufactures anti-bodies to defend you from illness. Your body needs a large amount of the proper nutrients to do this. These anti-bodies are formed using the basic building blocks - vitamins and minerals.

Your body not only hosts the virus that causes cold sores, but contains a multitude of other viruses as well. Believe it or not, you may even have the poliovirus in you. The good news - your body defenses keep these viruses dormant. You are considered IMMUNE to many of these viruses if your body defenses keep them from becoming active.

Herpes simplex virus type 1 and herpes type 2 are the root cause of all herpes sores, including cold sores. There are five other strains of the herpes simplex virus that are responsible for diseases such as chickenpox and shingles.

Even though the herpes virus that causes chickenpox is still around, few cases of it are reported today. Our bodies have developed such a strong immunity to this virus you are not likely to see an outbreak of it in a lifetime.

The virus that causes cold sores is a tiny, sub-microscopic parasite. It must have a host to live and create new virus. The herpes simplex virus will replicate by entering a nerve cell on the surface, and forcing that cell to become a virus production facility. Once the cell has created all the virus it can, the cell is destroyed to release the new herpes.

As you probably are aware, viruses are very survival oriented. Every time we invent a new drug, the germ that we are targeting soon becomes immune to it. Acyclovir, and other spin-offs of this drug, were initially successful against herpes -but now are becoming almost useless. The key to successfully curing a viral disease is to aid your body in building a strong immunity to it.

Your body was created to take care of itself. When you encounter a virus invader, like the cold sore virus, your body will develop an anti-body army to deal with that particular strain. Each time you get a cold sore, you create fresh anti-bodies to add to your reserves. Your body will come up with new versions of anti-bodies just as quickly as the virus mutates. The better anti-bodies you build (by providing the proper nutrients), the stronger your immunity diseases such as cold sores.

Vaccines, such as the polio vaccine, have been successful in curing many viral diseases. They are not designed to kill the virus directly but to aid the body in creating its own immunity to the virus - anti-bodies and killer cells. This is, by far, the best medicine for today's many virus threats. With cold sores, especially, you do not need the help of a vaccine. Your body can do it all for you - if you give it the necessary vitamins and minerals.

There was a time, not too many years ago, when you could be reasonably healthy from the nutrients provided by fruits, vegetables and meats. Today, scientists have proven that vegetables and fruits have dramatically less nutrients than even 50 years ago.

Amazing but true - it takes 60 servings of spinach today to equal the nutrition of only one serving in 1948. Maybe that is one reason why there is so much chronic disease today. And why more people are getting cold sore outbreaks than ever before - and more frequently.

I hope this all makes sense to you now. In order for you to truly hope to become immune to cold sores, and prevent many other chronic diseases, you must begin a daily regimen of good vitamin supplementation. By doing so, you will be giving your body the building blocks needed for a strong immune system and for cold sore prevention.
