Could genital herpes be retracing too? > Can you recommend healing strategies? I read that B1 combats herpes, > should I get a separate B1 supplement or increase all the B vitamins? ==>You can take an extra B1, about 200 mg per day, in addition to your usual dose of B complex. > How about enemas? I did one coffee enema on Saturday, should I do one every day until this subsides? ==>It isn't a good idea to do them everyday because it causes more problems by dumping too many toxins every day into your system, which the body has to get rid of, and it seems your body has to get rid of enough toxins as it is. Also the large bowel needs time to normalize in between. Epsom Salt baths would be best because they help pull toxins out through the skin, and also ensure you are taking " true " niacin as recommended, which releases toxins through the skin. > Before the extraction, I had upped my vitamin A to 100,000 units > including 2 tsp. of Blue Ice CLO. I also increased from 4 grams of > Vitamin C to 8 grams. Was this too much? ==>No, those doses are okay. You should only stay at those doses for 10-15 days and then gradually lower them to normal amounts. > > Can I put anything directly on the herpes sores? Any herbs that would help? ==>Coconut oil is best. You can also do sitz baths with tea like stinging nettle or dandelion. > > Did the tooth extraction cause this cascade effect of healing? This is the third retrace of herpes in a year. I was hoping it would be gone by now, but I've had it for 25 years so maybe I shouldn't be > surprised. I went off the daily Valtrex at the time I started the diet. ==>I doubt that the tooth extraction caused any of your symptoms. Seems like you are doing everything right, and healing right on schedule. Hang in there. This too shall pass. > > I really appreciate your opinions and all the help you've given me! ==>You are so very welcome . I'm proud of how well you understand everything, that you are progressing like you should! Well done! Healing hugs, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
