Herpes Treatment with Vitamins

It is autumn now. I like this beautiful season: yellow leaves falling and rustling, gentle melancholic rain, cold and transparent air.

But you know that autumn is a period of catarrhal diseases, chronical diseases exacerbation and thus immune system weakening.

As I’ve mentioned before, 90% of humans are infected with herpes. The herpes virus has an ability to survive for a long time in organism tissues. Some kinds of herpes virus could be present in sensitive ganglia of spinal cord of a person during all his or her life. And the latent infection not necessary will transfer to an active form of disease.

But there are factors that make easy such transfer. These factors include immunity reduce, chronical stress, chronical diseases exacerbation, hypovitaminosis, abnormalities in endocrine glands function, metabolic disturbance, pollution of environment etc.


So we have to protect and stimulate our immune system. Vitamins play an important role here. There are some useful vitamins and agents for persons infected with herpes, such as А, В, Е vitamins, ascorbic acid, rutin. They are very effective in autumn.
