Again song about HSV

The way this virus likes to mutate and gain resistance is absolutely amazing . I would say it if that was something really positive.
However idea that regular treatment against herpes labial is not helpful makes all doctors and patients to fall in total despair .
So again we have old song about herpes in particular HSV1 and HSV2 ,because another 2 versions (HSV3 and HSV4) at least do have vaccine, but so far there is no invented vaccine against these "common" two and it is utterly disaster for people who have acyclovir resistant form or have allergy to acyclovir or have compromised immune system.
Last disaster does not mean necessarily to suffer from another one "plague" HIV or AIDS but let say more general such status post operative (means after surgery), due to coming menstrual period, after other viral or bacterial infections, chemotherapy, prolonged stress and heavy physical effort such burn out syndrome and fatigue. I do not mention here nutritional deficit but yes, also this affects a lot. For instance deficit (laboratory proven) of Vitamin D etc.
I have already in my blog few articles about this, but seems to me world does not stand still as per John Kennedy even if it is world of herpes infection.
So lets review what do we have from natural plants which really work in this case . I am saying work which means prevention of recurrent infection or in another words long remission , joy and happiness. Well yes. It is indeed joy and happiness for patients with repetitive form means this punishment comes every month sometimes every 3 weeks. So imagine their emotions when they have a pause and lull for 2-4 months.
So lets start with very old and in the meantime underrated plant Olea europea. Yep. Olive tree. Sooo. Unexpectedly it's leaf if very powerful. Oil as well but less. So take olive leaf extract for some time and no recurrence or let say not that violent recurrence. It can be still some premonition or feeling it is coming but wont appear or appear but in very diminished way and will be eradicated shortly without blisters and ulcers.
Secret lies within oleuropein which is found in leaf. The most effective concentration is 20% emulsion if topical or in capsules in the way of extract . Works same well as acyclovir topical but for internal usage it needs to be longer period or let say olive leaf should be your friend until further notice. I would recommend to take it for at least 6 months. There are studies and of course I will mention them here about 3-6-9 weeks (Tesla numbers again) but as per my experience it is much better to have it longer or let say make it your "bread for life". Obviously if there is no allergy to it. Usually olive has anti allergy effect itself but this matter with allergies is very unpredictable .Much easy to win lottery than to predict will you have allergy to a substance or not. Of course olive leaf has other pleasant bonuses such regulation of cholesterol - keeps normal total, decreases LDL, increases HDL , keeps normal blood pressure, has anti inflammatory effect, heals gastrointestinal ulcers, regulates menstrual cycle (normalizing production of FSH/ LH. Estradiol ,Progesterone) etc etc
Therefore it is good to have Olive leaf extract 500 mg twice a day for 6 months and also to make 20% ointment or emulsion and apply on the lips every day and in case of first signs (tingling ,burning, itching) several times a day and it will prevent from further progression and blistering . Funny thing here that it is better to dissolve it in squalane which made from olive oil, so you take dry olive leaf extract and mix it and apply. Unless you will find ready to use formulation . You can enhance it with zinc sulfate for more strength but not necessarily -it works perfectly on its own.
Here there are variety of clinical researches about it and trials .
Personal experience after 1 month of intake and application HSV1 did not appear .
One more or let say 4 more to mention which can help in case of HSV1 combined with HSV2 and all this aggravated by long lasting post- Covid syndrome .
In this case olive leaf alone will not work. So it is good to add mushrooms and yeast. But not them directly even that there are many cases when they can enhance immune system (mycelium / AHCC ) but what is the most important Beta glucan derived from them. Remember about Beta glucan from Avena Sativa or Oats who helped to decreased cholesterol and improved healing of fracture as well prevented Influenza virus ??? So there is also Beta glucan from Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) and maitake (Grifola frondosa) and shiitake ( Lentinula edodes) and all of them significantly reduce occurrences of Herpes which was secondary to main infection viral or bacterial. Let say herpes appeared as opportunistic infection. It is worse scenario possible. So these substances are able to prevent it and more over to make stronger immune system in particular non specific immunity , It works for many other viral infections but the most effective it was for HSV, HPV and Influenza AB . Idea is that they will not work immediately even that there are studies about Pleuran from oyster mushroom, that it shortened already started HSV1 and HSV2 from 14 days to half means 7 days , but it is let say disputable, because to train innate immunity it needs minimum 3 weeks (principle of all vaccines) same as here as it is considered passive immunization at some point . Also Maitake can enhance Acyclovir itself, so if person has acyclovir resistant herpes and has no other ways to treat it ,then Maitake can be added to Acyclovir regular scheme and it will make Acyclovir work (in some mysterious way - reactivates thymidine kinase (TK) enzyme, which then activates again Acyclovir).
So it is recommended at least 6 weeks to take one of mushrooms or Beta Glucan from Yeast. Although it is good to apply it topically .
Regular dosages are between 500 mg and 1000 mg per 24 hrs for mushrooms (above mentioned) with exception to Oyster. As it is standardized protocol for Pleuran to start in acute phase from 300 mg with Vitamin C for first 7 days and then continue 100 mg with Vitamin C for next 6 weeks.
Studies show that results can vary.
My personal experience was that HSV1 & 2 subsided in 1 month of intake of Pleuran and the best part of it no one was infected with Influenza AB mixed with current version of SARS COV2 (2026) even with direct contact of ill individuals.
And finally last ingredient in our kitchen is .......tada-da-daam....... Cinnamon!!!!
Well .
All the time I am thinking to make my articles short without pouring water from one bucket to another and cut philosophy discussion and no. Not possible . I am going deeply in details.
So Cinnamon ,the one from Christmas spice is also effective to fight herpes.
Especially if it acts together with Zinc sulfate applied topically .
Basically you can take the one in powder but pure from kitchen mixed it with zinc sulfate or any formulation of zinc ointment (oxide or gluconate )and apply when needed. Exists also food supplement in capsules . It is recommended to take it as soon as possible or better in advance if episodes of herpes known after or before certain events such ovulation in women or exhaustion in men. Regular dosage for Cinnamon is maximum 500 mg every 12 hrs for acute onset for 3-5 days and then 375 mg once a day for 14 days. Zinc gluconate 25 mg in 24 hrs for first 3 days and then 10 mg per 24 hrs for 7 days. It is not recommended to take it more and for long time due to zinc accumulated toxicity. When applied topically Zinc is not toxic . Zinc itself inhibits HSV and also well known for its antihistamine, bacteriostatic and soothing effects and generally used for newborns to prevent diaper rash and other dermatitis, as well acne. Cinnamon from other side is known as cure for metabolic syndrome such diabetes (regulation of glucose and insulin levels), dyslipidemia ( normalizing ratio between HDL and LDL), obesity (decreasing body fat inclusive visceral)
