Herpes Simplex

Herpes Simplex
(Cold Sores)

Serious Corrective Treatment:
Herpes Simplex

Symptoms:
Infections look like small clear blisters and occur frequently around the mouth. They are caused by a virus rather than bacteria and the virus can be very active or virtually dormant. The virus may be stimulated by fever, stress, certain foods or drugs, and overexposure to the sun.

While herpes simplex is caused by a virus rather than bacteria (such as acne), the skin does not distinguish the difference between an infection caused by a virus or caused by bacteria and responds in a similar manner to herpes simplex and acne. Chronic herpes simplex (like moderate to severe acne) causes a zinc deficiency in the skin's chemistry, leaving it vulnerable to this virus and slow in healing. To learn more about infection-induced zinc deficiencies, read the sections on Moderate to Severe Acne.

Acne Inhibiting Gel is a powerful anti-inflammatory agent that promotes rapid healing. It quickly reduces inflammation and resolves herpes simplex infections within 1-2 days. As it replenishes the skin's supply of immuno-protective agents, such as zinc, linoleic acid, etc. it reduces the frequency of infection recurrence. Acne Inhibiting Gel was not developed for herpes simplex, however, acne patients noticed the product cleared their herpes simplex eruptions within 1-2 days and prevented them from returning and the product has been used by skin care professionals for this purpose since then.

Antibacterial Cleanser kills a multitude of bacteria, including propionibacterium acnes, staphylococcus (staph infection), E. coli, Salmonella and other dreaded bacteria, and can reduce bacteria and bacterial lipases that aggravate herpes simplex. As herpes simplex infections spill their waste materials into the skin Antibacterial Cleanser kills infectious matter and removes it from the skin.
