My wife used to get cold sores semi-regularly. They’d come out of nowhere, sometimes during cold/flu season, other times during summer. And sometimes during stressful periods (sales quotas, recruiting marching band volunteer parents a day before a festival).
Bad viruses, bad!in the middle of summer. Cold sores are caused be a recurring virus.
The thing is, since my wife has been taking EpiCor, the cold sores have nearly become extinct. We can’t remember the last time she had one. Researchers have long known that the HSV-1 virus that fuels cold sores is very adept at hiding from immune cells .
Could the simple balancing of immune response — which includes activating aggressive immune response when something is detected — be an answer? I’m not a researcher, and certainly EpiCor does not have specific cold sore or HSV-1 research supporting it. It does have research showing EpiCor activates NK cells and sIgA immune antibodies when ingested. Just wondering….
