Herpes Treatment: Home Remedies. Part IV

Home remedies for cold sores: Raw Whole Milk



Applying raw milk has been a well-known home remedy for cold sores for years. Now science has confirmed its potential. Indeed, raw whole milk contains a fat called monocaprin that can kill the virus on contact according to a recent study. So applying milk fat should be better that the milk itself. Whole milk is simple and easy to find. You may already have some in your kitchen as we speak. So why not give it a try next time you feel that nagging itch again.


I hope you'll try some of these great home remedies for cold sores. Don't use them all at once and don't use raw garlic with anything else. But have some fun with them. They can come in handy when it's sunday night and the closest open drugstore is miles away or when you're on vacation and you left your favorite home remedies for cold sores at home.
