diet for prevention of herpes outbreaks

[aiko2004]

Ive been reading up on how to treat my first OB, prevention & so on. I just wanted to see if anyone would share insight on their diet & how it affects their OB? Any advice or insight is greatly appreciated because Im still confused, there's so many different resources & opinions! :-/

Hi aiko!

 

Welcome to our lil positive community! ;)

 

Ultimately the best way to avoid herpes outbreaks is to keep your immune system up, so everything that contributes to that: less stress, healthy foods, healthy ways of thinking. There is a great debate in the herpes community around Arginine and Lysine (read about then in the medication link below), but I personally haven't noticed a difference when I do take lysine (and no science has backed it up lately that it does help lessen outbreaks).

 

Check out these articles for more on all that! :)
