Neem oil is obtained by squeezing the seeds of Azadirachta Indica, a plant native to the tropical and sub-tropical areas of Asia. Thanks to the high concentration of vitamin E and essential fatty acids, it is an oil with powerful endermic properties: it is nourishing, emollient, moisturizing, antioxidant.

But not only: alongside these characteristics, there is a proven antibiotic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiparasitic action. It is, therefore, able to cope with bacteria, fungi, viruses, and all those skin pathologies of exogenous origin, such as herpes simplex, the most common is the lip: annoying and painful blisters that form on the lips or in the surrounding areas then destined to dry.

In this regard, Neem oil acts on 3 fronts: 

  1. with its antibiotic action it counteracts the virus

  2. thanks to the emollient properties it moisturizes and nourishes the labial mucosa which generally dries up with the appearance of herpes

  3. with its antioxidant action it regenerates the tissue of the mucosa damaged by the vesicles.

Neem oil is highly concentrated, so a few drops are enough. The smell is not particularly pleasant, but it can be sweetened with an antiseptic essential oil , such as lavender, geranium or tea tree.

How to use Neem oil (external use)

​

A powerful mixture against cold sores can be created: a spoonful of Neem oil in which to add 2 drops of Tea-tree essential oil . Mix with a simple cotton swab to be used to apply the oil on both lips, with the foresight to start first from the healthy mucosa and lastly leave the direct application on herpes . Repeat this several times a day.

When the virus reaches the lips and manifests itself, it has already affected the oral cavity. It is therefore appropriate to disinfect the part through gargling with a solution of 10 drops of Ribes Nigrum in mother tincture (natural cortisone) with 5 drops of Neem Oil and 5 drops of propolis tincture diluted in a Malva herbal tea .

Gargles are used to clean and disinfect, so it is best not to swallow the solution!

As a preventive measure, it is possible to enrich our cocoa butter stick with two drops of Neem oil, enhancing the simple gesture of hydrating the lips with an antiviral action that protects the mucous membranes of the lips from inflammatory and bacterial agents.

Herpes Simplex is forever

Labial Herpes simplex is caused by the HSV-1 virus, a subfamily of Herpesviridae and occurs with papular vesicles that lurk on the lips or surrounding tissues. They are painful, unsightly, annoying for the movement of the lips.

Once you contract this virus, you will marry it for life! It is sneaky because it enters the cells of the trigeminal nerve ganglion, is fugitive but present, ready to manifest itself at the cutaneous level when our immune system goes through a deficit phase, perhaps due to very heavy stress, psycho-physical fatigue, weakening from states flu, but also for unprotected sun exposure, disordered nutrition, climate change.

Diet for genital herpes

To treat herpes and avoid recurrent infections, a diet that includes foods rich in lysine, an essential amino acid that is not synthesized by the body and must be ingested through food or supplementation, must be followed. Some sources of lysine are meats, fish, and milk.

In addition to this, the consumption of foods rich in arginine should be decreased, an amino acid that, unlike lysine, favors the replication of the herpes virus in the body, making its recovery slower. 

It is important to mention that foods rich in lysine also contain arginine, because both amino acids are found in foods that are rich in protein, however, those that contain a higher proportion of lysine than arginine should be chosen.

What foods to eat

To avoid recurrent herpes crises, the following foods should be included in the diet:

1. Foods with lysine

It is believed that lysine could help prevent recurrent herpes or cure it faster, because it slows down the replication of the virus in the body, helping the immune system and increasing its defenses. Lysine is an essential amino acid because the body does not produce it, which is why it must be ingested through food.

Lysine sources are milk, yogurt, eggs, avocado, beans except black, peas, lentils, meats, liver, chicken and fish.

2. Foods with vitamin C

It is also important to include foods rich in vitamin C in the diet, since it acts on the immune system protecting the body from infections, in addition to contributing to the formation of collagen and skin regeneration, favoring the healing of blisters that arise during a herpes crisis. 

Some sources of foods rich in vitamin C are orange, kiwi, strawberries, lemon, and pineapple. 

3. Foods with zinc 

Zinc is a mineral that performs various functions in the body, in addition to strengthening the immune system, it also promotes wound healing. Some foods rich in this mineral are oysters, meats and soy. 

4. Other foods that boost the immune system

Other foods that help raise defenses are foods rich in omega-3s, vitamin E, probiotics, and selenium. Some examples of these foods are flaxseed, olive oil, garlic, sunflower seeds, kefir, sauerkraut, among others. 

What foods should be avoided

FOODS RICH IN ARGININE

​

To prevent herpes, foods rich in arginine must be reduced from the diet, an amino acid stimulates the replication of the virus and increases the frequency of attacks. Some of these foods are oats, granola, wheat germ, and almonds, for example. 

Another important measure is to avoid the consumption of coffee, as well as white flour and foods rich in sugars such as chocolate, white bread, cookies, soft drinks and cakes, because these are pro-inflammatory foods that slow recovery.

Likewise, it is important to avoid smoking, consuming alcoholic beverages and exposing yourself to the sun without protection, because they decrease the defenses and increase the risk of the virus manifesting itself.

Lysine supplementation

Supplementation with this amino acid is believed to help prevent recurrent herpes or cure it faster. Generally, the recommended prophylactic dose in individuals with recurrent herpes is between 500-1500 mg / day.

In cases where the virus is active, it is usually recommended the intake of up to 3000 mg / day of lysine during this period, and the doctor should be consulted to indicate the appropriate dose depending on the case.

Safety treatment for genital herpes

1. Practice Safe Sex. 

​

There is no definitive cure for genital herpes (caused by HSV-1 or HSV-2), which develops through direct contact. The probability of passing on the virus to someone else is higher during a period of illness when symptoms are present, but it is also possible to spread the virus when you are asymptomatic (there are no obvious symptoms). Avoid sex or any type of intimate contact if symptoms or sores are present (an ulcer, swelling, etc.). If you are infected, safe sex is essential to protect your partner; research shows that when partners avoid sex during active outbreaks, or if they use condoms, there is a general lowering of the risk of transmission (only 1 to 10% depending on the partner's gender and medical history).

2. Boost your immune system. 

​

Even when you become infected with genital herpes, the symptoms depend on everyone's immune system. Symptoms vary greatly depending on how much "viral spread" a person's immune system allows, that is, how quickly the body can fight the effects of the virus and can overcome or prevent symptoms. Many people are infected with both types of herpes virus, but show no signs or symptoms - because they develop a strong immune response in the early years of life or after they have become sexually active.

What is genital herpes?

Genital herpes is an infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). There are two types of this virus and both can cause it. 

Herpes simplex type 1 most commonly affects the lips, causing sores known as febrile vesicles or, more simply, cold sores, however it can also localize in the genital area and cause the same type of vesicles. The second type is characteristic of the genitals but can also affect the mouth. A person who has genital herpes infection can easily transmit the virus to healthy people through sexual intercourse.
 

The virus remains throughout its life in particular nerve cells of the body and, in some cases, it can occur occasionally. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 45 million people aged 12 years and over (1/5 of the total adolescent and adult population) are affected by the type 2 herpes simplex virus in the country.

How is genital herpes transmitted?

Most people get genital herpes through sexual intercourse with someone who has a "manifestation" of the disease. This means that the virus is active. In this case, the virus causes visible lesions in the genital area that spread (release) infections that can infect other people. A partner can also be infected through oral sex. This virus only rarely spreads through contact with objects such as toilet seats and bathtubs.

Can demonstrations recur?

If you have been infected by one of the two types, manifestations or symptoms will occur from time to time. After the end of its period of activity, the virus moves into the nerves at the base of the spine, where it remains for a certain period. Even after the disappearance of the lesions, the virus remains "dormant" and hidden, in a state of inactivity, in the nerve cells.

In most cases, the virus can manifest itself several times a year. This phenomenon is called recurrence and the causes that trigger it are still to be determined for scientists. During the period of activity, the virus moves through the nerves to the skin, where it multiplies in the vicinity of the first infection. New plagues appear in this area.

The frequency and severity of the episodes vary considerably. While some people have one or two manifestations over a lifetime, others may have several manifestations per year. In subjects, the number and disposition of relapses often changes with the passage of time and, as already mentioned, the reasons for the reappearance are still unknown. Often the manifestations are not predictable even if some people say that, in their case, they are triggered by another disease, by stress or by menstruation. In other cases, the appearance of the virus may be linked to exposure to sunlight.

How is genital herpes diagnosed?

Doctors can diagnose genital herpes by examining visible sores (if the manifestation is typical) or by submitting a sample of the lesions to laboratory tests. Herpes can be difficult to identify between one manifestation and another. Blood tests that indicate the presence of antibodies to HSV viruses of both types can be useful for diagnosis in people who do not exhibit symptoms or in the time interval between manifestations.

What are the cures for genital herpes?

Although conventional medicine does not provide a cure for genital herpes, the doctor can prescribe one of these three drugs to treat or prevent future episodes.
- Aciclovir (Zovirax®)
- Famciclovir (Famvir®)
- Valaciclovir (Valtrex®)

During one of the periods of herpes activity, whether it is the first or a recurrence, some simple instructions should be followed in order to speed up healing and avoid the spread of the infection in other areas of the body or the infection of other people .

- Keep the area of ​​infection clean and dry to avoid the development of other infections.
- Try to avoid contact with sores.
- Wash hands after contact with sores.
- Avoid sexual contacts from the first appearance of any symptom to the complete recovery of wages, that is, the fall of the crust and the formation of new skin in the affected area.

Can genital herpes cause other problems?

If a woman has the first manifestation of genital herpes during pregnancy, she can pass the virus on to her child and experience a premature birth. Half of the children with herpes die or develop nerve damage. A baby born with herpes can have serious brain, skin or eye problems. If babies born with herpes are immediately treated with acyclovir, their chances of being healthy increase.
If a pregnant woman has a recurrence during pregnancy, the risk of contagion for childbirth is very low. In any case, if you have this problem and are pregnant, it is advisable to consult your doctor often before, during and after the birth of the baby.

If a woman has a manifestation with lesions on the birth canal or in the adjacent area during labor and delivery, the doctor will proceed with a cesarean section to protect the unborn child. However, most patients with genital herpes show no signs of active virus infection at these times, so they can face a normal birth.

Can you breastfeed with genital herpes?

​

If you have genital herpes, you can continue breastfeeding as long as the sores are covered. In fact, the virus is transmitted through contact with the latter and can be dangerous for the newborn. If you have sores on your nipples and areolas (the darker area of ​​skin around them) you should stop breastfeeding.
