That’s a good chart. There are so many things in there that I have to eat, for balanced nutrition, that I can’t stick to the chart entirely. I just avoid nuts and grapes. I find that the only sure way to prevent OB is to supplement Lysine + cats claw (which I take for other reasons anyway). I recently took a supplement for pain, because I have arthritis, called “Devils Claw.” It is related to sesame, and it triggered a bad episode. I was so disappointed. I had gone just over a year.

It’s been a long 26 years for me, but I wanted to tell you all, that I am happily married and I’ve had 4 kids, all fine. I don’t take any acyclovir, because it doesn’t really work well for me. Suppressive therapy has been successful with 500 mg lysine daily. I’ve been able to heal from outbreaks quickly by using neem oil on the sores, and, if they are bothering me a lot, a mixture of clove oil and peppermint oil as needed (apply with a Q-tip). Take internally: Lysine plus ( quantum) up to 3x a day, Lemon balm force, zinc (only once a day!), and definitely do some blue green algae daily if you can. x Don’t be afraid to take lots of Lysine, it really makes the outbreaks back off. Also, I believe that taking a 2-4 grams of cats claw daily also helps. I hope this post helps someone. I really wish I was better about taking the Lysine daily long term, but I really hate thinking about this disease every day which is why I would eventually stop it. But I never had an outbreak when taking daily Lysine. Something to think about. Peace. x
