I Hate Cold Sores!

And, I bet you do, too.  That’s because they’re awful and take forever to go away.  There is hope.  I know I tell everyone I can about it, but it seems many people still don’t know.  I take one 500mg dose of Lysine a day.

Lysine is an amino acid that our bodies don’t produce so we have to get it from the foods we eat.  Research has shown Lysine helps control cold sore outbreaks.  I have tried it and it has drastically cut down the number of cold sores I have.  Unless, I happen to be REALLY stressed out, I don’t get any.  This year, I’ve already had two.  So, here’s hoping yoga cuts down on the stress!
