L-Lysine Reviews

Show: for
I am blessed to be primarily asymptomatic, but do take L-Lysine as well as vitamins to boost immune system
I take 3 L-Lysine pills a day and haven't gotten an outbreak in almost a year!
It works really good if you take it at the first signs of outbreaks, taking it only two days at the first sign and I didnt get the outbreak.
I highly recommend taking Lysine pills (can be bought for cheap at wal-mart.) I feel they have helped ward off herpes outbreaks.
WHEN SYMPTOMS COME I MEGA DOSE ON LYSINE OLIVE LEAF AND MONOLAURIN
It definitely works. At the first sign of a tingle, tickle, sting or ache around my vagina, I load up on lysine! 2000mg every 3 hours or so the first day, then 1000mg every few hours for the next 2 or 3 days. Then 500mg here & there for the next 2 days. I continue that way until there's absolutely no feeling of an outbreak. I've completely prevented any sores from emerging many times. Also shortens an outbreak if lysine is taken this way. 2 or 3 days & it's gone!
I used this in combination with weekly chiropractic adjustments, and abstaining from food with sugar, white flour or milk. I also run to keep my weight down too.
500mg daily.
It was traumatic. Severly overwhelming. I had been married for so long I didnt even know that std's were sooo rampant now. I got it with a condom.
infrequent outbreaks
