Herpes Simplex, Suppression
"I&#039;ve known I had both oral and genital herpes for over 20 years.  At first I had outbreaks several times a year.   Later I started taking L-Lysine daily after a friend suggested it.  The  outbreak I was having at that time was of lesser intensity and duration than others I had had before.  I started taking 2 500mg pills every day, I could miss a day or two with no problems and  I had no outbreaks.  I stopped for a while and had an outbreak.  I noticed that the outbreak was preceded by a strange itch in the same location.  The next time I stopped my daily regimen I always kept some L-Lysine with me.  When I felt the itch again, I took 3 500mg L-Lysine right away ... the itch went away and no outbreak followed.  Try it yourself.  "
