Doug Dollemore, Mark Giuliucci and the Editors of Men's Health Magazine See book keywords and concepts | Nearly 31 million people—one in six Americans—have genital herpes. herpes, caused by the virus herpes simplex type 2, is a lifelong infection that produces genital sores as often as once a month in some men. Other men never develop symptoms, although they are still infectious. Acyclovir (Zovirox), an oral prescription drug, can ease the symptoms but won't cure the disease. Sores from herpes or any other STD also increase your risk of contracting AIDS, since the virus can easily enter the body through these open blisters.

See book keywords and concepts | Capric acid is formed into monocaprin in the human body, which has also been shown to have antiviral effects and is being tested for effects against herpes and antibacterial effects against chlamydia and other sexually transmitted bacteria.
Though some people believe MCTs can be helpful for weight control and athletic performance (since they are an easily metabolized source of calories that are not likely to be stored as fat), this use is controversial. | Joerg Gruenwald, Ph.D. See book keywords and concepts | INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Golden Seal is used externally on wounds and herpes labialis.
PRECAUTIONS AND ADVERSE REACTIONS
If taken over an extended period, the drug can bring about digestive disorders, constipation, excitatory states, hallucinations and occasionally deliria.
OVERDOSAGE
High dosages lead to vomiting, difficulty in breathing, bradycardia, spasms, eventually to central paralysis. | Brigitte Mars, A.H.G. See book keywords and concepts | Today, calendula flowers are used to treat Candida, cervical irritation, chicken pox, conjunctivitis, glandular swellings, hemorrhoids, herpes, infection, lymph inflammation, measles, mumps, smallpox, staph infection, stomach inflammation, thrush, and ulcers.
Topically, calendula promotes the formation of granulation tissue. It is used in skin creams for its nourishing, scar-preventing, and anti-inflammatory properties. | Andreas Moritz See book keywords and concepts | These include yeast infections, simple head or chest colds, influenza, rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis, herpes, recent inoculations, drug use and pregnancy. There are literally hundreds of millions of people in the world who either have gone through such conditions or are currently experiencing them. Giving them an AIDS test would automatically sentence them to a disease they may not have. That is exactly what we are doing during the humanitarian AIDS campaigns promoted by the WHO and numerous charitable AIDS organizations. | Rainer W.

Carnitine
This amino acid helps to shuttle fatty acids into parts of cells called mitochondria, which is where fat is oxidized for cellular energy production. Carnitine is made in the body from the methylation of lysine and obtained from meat sources in the diet. | Marshall Editions See book keywords and concepts | Other causes: More rarely, yeast infections, herpes, diphtheria, gonococcus, syphilis, and chlamydia, as well as tuberculosis, can cause a sore throat. Treatment is specific to the organism causing the infection.
TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE
Herbs:
• To treat an acute sore throat: In the acute stage, chills, fever, and a cough often accompanies a sore throat. To treat this stage of a sore throat, take the patent herbal pill Yin Qiao Jie Du Pian or make the following herbal tea. | Bill Sardi See book keywords and concepts | Biochem Pharmacology 68: 1255-67, 2004]
The first long-term prospective study involving women at high-risk for infection by the herpes Papilloma Virus found folic acid significantly reduces the risk of cervical cancer. [Cancer Research 64: 8788-93, 2004]
This should be sufficient evidence for women to supplement with folic acid throughout life.
How much more evidence is needed? | | Epstein-Barr is a herpes family virus that is responsible for mononucleosis. Epstein-Barr is also associated with the development of several malignancies, namely nasal/pharynge-al cancer, Burkitt's lymphoma and some cases of Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well as some of the AIDS-related lymphomas. [Journal Virology 73: 9959-68, 1999] A process called methylation can inhibit genes that trigger latent viruses from becoming active. Folic acid is involved in methylation. A shortage of folic acid can facilitate the activation of cancer-causing viruses like Epstein-Barr. | | It is estimated that Epstein-Barr, a herpes family virus that infects 90% of the world's population, is associated with lymphoma. But obviously this virus is only the first step in the development of cancer. [Clinical Cancer Research 10: 803-821, 2004]
The availability of a vaccine may not significantly reduce mortality from cervical cancer in developed countries where Pap smears frequently detect early stages of cancer. | | Life Sciences 71: 1449-63, 2002] Licorice inhibits the growth of viruses, and therefore may be beneficial for individuals with herpes or papilloma viruses that can sometimes trigger tumors. Some researchers now think licorice kills viruses rather than just keeping them dormant. [Journal Clinical Investigation 115: 591-93, 2005] Licorice inhibits testosterone, so it may have applications for the treatment or prevention of prostate cancer. | Andreas Moritz See book keywords and concepts | MMS has also been successfully used for any other serious illness, including Hepatitis A, B & C, Typhoid, most cancers, herpes, pneumonia, food poisoning, tuberculosis, asthma, influenza (for more details on MMS see Chapter 7 and Product Information).
Prevention is better than cure. This old saying applies to cancer as well. Whatever can prevent cancer can also cure it. The approaches and insights described in this book address the causes of nearly all illnesses, including cancer. | | Patients suffering from gout, rheumatoid arthritis, colitis, arteriosclerosis, anemia, cystitis, eczema, acne, psoriasis, herpes, lupus, sciatica, kidney problems, asthma, and even burns, have all received great benefits from the healing rays of the sun.
The medical doctor and author, Dr. Auguste Rollier, was the most famous heliotherapist of his day. At his peak, he operated 36 clinics with over 1,000 beds in Leysin, Switzerland. | | Heroin addicts are the most likely to develop tuberculosis, herpes infection and weight loss, and hemophiliacs produce pneumonia, regardless whether they have HIV or not. This fact makes HIV a harmless passenger virus. There are as many cases of pneumonia and tuberculosis today without HIV as there are with HIV. Kaposi's sarcoma also is no longer an exclusive "AIDS disease." Slim disease is as common among Africans who test positive for HIV as it is for their HIV-negative counterparts. | Doug Dollemore, Mark Giuliucci and the Editors of Men's Health Magazine See book keywords and concepts | Nearly 31 million people—one in six Americans—have genital herpes. herpes, caused by the virus herpes simplex type 2, is a lifelong infection that produces genital sores as often as once a month in some men.

Sores from herpes or any other STD also increase your risk of contracting AIDS, since the virus can easily enter the body through these open blisters.
Syphilis. | Andreas Moritz See book keywords and concepts | If HIV, herpes, and all the other types of viruses that are latent in humans and animals living on the planet were capable of killing people, there would hardly be anyone left to treat the billions of sufferers. HIV, being a human retrovirus (produced by the body itself), is totally benign to its host cells and is, therefore, incapable of destroying any cell it has infected. This applies especially to the cells of the immune system, which are equipped with highly sophisticated defense mechanisms. | | It has shown success in the treatments of a wide array of disorders, including multiple sclerosis, colitis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, hepatitis, pancreatic insufficiency, psoriasis, eczema, diabetes and herpes. For three million Chinese, drinking their own urine is an accepted health practice. Former Prime Minister of India Morarji Desai, who lived up to the age of 99, has been the most well known proponent of this therapy. In Germany, a former president's wife, openly admitted drinking her own urine on national television. | Bottom Line Health See book keywords and concepts | | The rash itself can also be misleading, because it may resemble herpes simplex or contact dermatitis. A trained dermatologist will be able to spot the symptoms of shingles immediately and confirm the diagnosis by a viral culture.
Once diagnosed, the shingles patient is immediately started on a seven- to 10-day course of the antiviral drug acyclovir (Zovirax)—taken five times a day—or valacyclovir (Valtrex) or famciclovir (Famvir), both of which are taken twice a day. As mentioned above, the earlier the antiviral drugs are given, the more effective they will be. | | SHINGLES
This itchy, blistering rash—called shingles or herpes zoster—is caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox. It strikes in middle or old age and usually afflicts one side of the upper body. The virus affects the nerves, so it can leave victims in chronic pain, a condition called postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Discuss these options with your doctor...
•Ketamine. This prescription anesthetic can decrease shingles pain within days in 65% of the cases. Apply a gel containing 5% ketamine two to three times daily to the painful area.
•Lidoderm. | Joerg Gruenwald, Ph.D. See book keywords and concepts | Following contact it can result in reddening, swelling and herpes simplex-like blisters. It also has a strong toxic effect if taken internally. Stimulates the immune system.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Formerly used as a narcotic. The drug is used most extensively in homeopathy, where it is used in cases of general low resistance to infections, especially rheumatism in the joints and muscles, overexertion (stress and strain), nosebleeds, also for diverse infectious diseases. | Marshall Editions See book keywords and concepts | Facial pain can be triggered by many conditions, but the most common causes are sinusitis, ear infection, dental problems such as an abscess or toothache, headache, herpes (shingles), mumps, and trigeminal neuralgia (severe stabbing pains, often in the lips, gums, or cheeks). Pain in the ear region may be linked to the skin, teeth, tonsils, pharynx, larynx, or neck. Tenderness around the jawbone area may be due to sinusitis, a dental abscess, or a tumor. Facial pain can be precipitated by a specific injury, chewing food, or, on occasion, even the slightest touch to the skin. | Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts | Therefore, when you're fighting herpes, you want to make sure not to take arginine supplements, great as they may be for other things (like the heart and even sexual performance). Foods that have more lysine than arginine include fish, chicken, beef, lamb, milk, cheese, beans, brewer's yeast, mung bean sprouts, and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that have more arginine than lysine include gelatin, chocolate, carob, coconut, oats, whole wheat and white flour, peanuts, soybeans, and wheat germ. Best to stay away if you're having—or expecting—an outbreak. | Marshall Editions See book keywords and concepts | A synthetic form of glycyrrhizin, carbenoxolone, has also been used topically to treat herpes lesions.

DIAGNOSIS
Hirsutism is the abnormal growth of hair in women. It is usually classified as hair growth in a male pattern, for example thick hair on the face, chest, and stomach—areas where most women would not normally expect to grow hair. This condition usually first appears during puberty. It is not a disease and is rarely caused by a serious illness, but it can be very distressing. | | Aloe vera: To treat the blisters associated with a herpes outbreak, simply take the gel from a fresh cut leaf and apply it directly to the affected area. If fresh leaves are not available, there are a variety of gels and lotions containing aloe vera that can be purchased at your local health food store.
Licorice: Licorice root extracts, in creams, lotions, or ointments, can help provide pain relief and decrease healing time. Licorice, which has anti-viral properties, is a demulcent that coats and soothes the skin. | | HOMEOPATHY
The following remedies can be used as short-term, complementary therapies alongside conventional treatment to ease the discomfort and distress of an acute flare-up of herpes. For more extensive support, consult an experienced homeopathic practitioner, rather than trying to handle the situation through self-help measures alone.
Natrum mur: Consider using this remedy if the affected area feels dry and sore, leading to smarting, burning sensations. | John Croft See book keywords and concepts | Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. There are two types of this herpes simplex virus, and it is mainly herpes type 1 that causes cold sores, although type 2 can be involved. Because it is a viral disease, the most effective treatments work through internal immune reactions, and thus immuno-stimulatory products such as deep sea shark liver oil can help reduce the symptoms.
The lady related that after a few weeks of taking the capsules on a regular daily basis she noticed that her general skin condition had improved significantly. | Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts | Though stress will not cause a person to develop IBS, it can trigger symptoms, just as it can trigger symptoms of asthma, herpes, and probably countless other conditions. The bowel is a sensitive organ and can react to all manner of things from stress hormones to food. (More on the stress connection below.)
Food for Thought
The connection between food sensitivities and IBS is an important one, and most nutritionally minded health practitioners will recommend cutting out certain foods as a good starting place. |
