herpes cure

Hey I know right now there is no herpes cure, but I hear there is a vaccine that may be available for women soon, to keep them from contracting the virus. Does ayone know if this is true? I guess this is just a hopeful question, but I know a virus is very hard to control and it mutates sooooo fast, that is why it is so hard to treat AIDS but does anyone know if scientist are trying to work on a herpes cure, not supression but a total cure? And is it even possible?

I, personally, believe that even though outright cures for "viruses" in general are technically not forth coming, there are ways of strengthening the body's immune system through lifestyle and dietary changes that can help your body defend itself against most viruses. This is what our bodies were initially designed to do. Unfortunately, in today's day and age, most people are too busy and stressed out and do not want to make the necessary changes in their lives to make that happen. This is why pharmaceutical companies are billion and trillionaires  and the rest of us are sick, dying and suffering.

Dear Slacker,

Please do search for some of the research that has been done on nosodes, mms, hypericum mysorense, ozone therapy and other natural medicines for herpes.  

I reading through the posts I almost seem to find that people who are open to and willing to try natural medicines tend to have seen dramatic improvements, whereas others just call everything other than Valtrex a scam.  

Nosodes for example showed dramatic improvements including no further outbreaks for 82% of people in independant studies conducted by the british journal of homeopathy. This is way beyond the results for Acyclovir.  Both studies are accessible through google.  Yet this study and its findings never saw FDA approval as no one came forth with the money to get FDa clearance.  Patented chemicals are the only medicines that FDA approval makes financial sense for.

Luckily we are living in the information age and some of us take the time to reach out and find something that works.  Almost every culture and traditional medicine system has a treatment for herpes that is way more effective than the drugs out there.  However you will never find it until you reach out with an open mind.

I think it's so bizarre how when I hear people talk about their experiences with Valtrex or suppressive therapy and herpes, there's never an argument and everyone respects the experiences of that individual.  But say anything about alternative therapy, and suddenly blog snipers come out from nowhere and claim you're selling "snake oil".  It's no wonder progress is so slow when people are putting more value into hearing themselves speak rather than actually listening to one another and showing respect.  Sad.

Actually, I just found out my post was deleted because I did not realise we're not supposed to post web addresses on the forum... your post was rather weird.  It's like you've got a chip on your shoulder...  I don't work for MMS, I'm a part-time professional photographer and an executive assistant in finance.  I've never spoken to anyone at MMS, but I'd certainly like to at some stage.

I doubt you've done much homework if you're calling it snake oil, LOL!  It's nothing of the sort.  It's actually a mineral substance that, when mixed with citric acid, creates the active ingredient of chlorine dioxide (not bleach).  It's not expensive ($20), and all the ingredients are found in nature... in other words, the medical industry will never embrace it because they cannot charge a fortune for it.

I will say again, if you'd like to know more, do the research (and I don't mean check more blogs!).  I simply refuse to believe that the many thousands of individuals who have participated in medical studies and/or reporting their personal testimonies are somehow a part of a mass conspiracy.  That sort of talk sounds more like a scam to me than anything.

Having worked in the medical field very briefly, I can tell you that most cures and treatments are found accidentally.  There is no reason to believe that cures are not out there, none.  Doctors and "experts" are no more or less human than you and I.  I do love how far we've come in medicine, but it's so sad how some individuals behave like you can't know what you're talking about unless you're wearing a white jacket.  Drugs can be great, but they don't solve everything.

Regardless, my post was for anyone who is, like myself, seeking alternative therapies.  A little hope never hurt anyone, and this therapy is working wonders for me.  If this is not something that interests you, don't buy it and who honestly cares?  Your thoughts have been heard, so move on.  

By the way, there ARE actual testimonials of individuals who have been cured.  I cannot post the link here, but there are plenty out there.  

I should also note that the only way we test for herpes is by checking for antibodies.  Antibodies can be present even when the virus is not.  To my knowledge, it takes about 3-4 months for the antibodies to leave the system (this is assumed because it takes about that time for the antibodies to appear).  It's also entirely possible that they never disappear... I am not an expert in the field.  Significantly, we vaccinate individuals with dead viral cells or antibodies in order to protect from certain conditions... which means that if you test someone for that infection, the antibodies would also be present.  Does that mean that person is positive? What I'm alluding to is that, when talking about a cure, this test can be misleading and is far more complex than what you've implied.

And I have done my own homework since asking you and it's snake oil. Someone even said people here who are promoting it work for the company. This is why your posts have been deleted. When you get 100% cured with this stuff, come back and tell the world because you will be the first person in history to be cured of HSV by some potion over the internet, not to mention from another country...  SCAM

Hi Slacker,

It's interesting because I just responded to another one of your posts, where you ask me more information about the therapy...

So, I can assure you this is not a scam.  I'm speaking from personal experience and have never even spoken to anyone at MMS.  I simply wanted to try it for myself to see if I would have similar results to those reported.... and I am!

I was particularly interested in the chemistry of the solution.  And if you know anything about chemistry, you should have no problem looking up the chemistry of the solution on any search engine and seeing for yourself how it works the way it does.  It's interesting stuff.

Anyway, it's working great for me and I'm sure many others, which is all that matters.  Actions speak louder than words, so I'll continue getting cured while you sit there spelling out "S-C-A-M", lol.

Hi Scaredam,

I posted a response on here, but it got flagged for some bizarre reason.  I've had some great results using MMS (Miracle Mineral Solution).  I know the name is awful, but keeping an eye on the company for about 2 years now, I decided to read some testimonials and have a look at the studies they've done.  It was enough to get me to try it, and the price is nowhere near what I would normally pay for herpes meds or even an asthma inhaler.

What I can tell you from my personal experience is that this appears to be a cure that works by "cleaning" the blood.  I've not been doing the therapy long, but I've had some very significant results already.  There are others who would claim the same about this product in regards to herpes and numerous other conditions.  You can find the solution using any search engine, but I can provide you with some links to some information on how and why it works as well as the official website of MMS, where you can see their studies, etc.  Apparently, I cannot post the link here, so feel free to message me if you'd like to know more.

I know this is a hot topic for some, and I've heard just about every point of view on this, but personally I just don't see how not keeping an open mind and talking negative ever got anyone anywhere.  I'm always open to talking to others who have this condition... sometimes it's the only thing that keeps me from feeling like I live in a small box...  so anyone who would like to know more, please feel free to message me or have a look at the wealth of information that's already out there.  I hope this helps!

Herpes doesn't mutate quite like HIV or even Hep C does.

Trust me, people are working on vaccines, cures, new therapies for all this stuff, but as of right now, we have NO cure for any virus.

I'd suggest working on accepting herpes rather than waiting for a cure for it.

If we do get a cure, it won't be anytime soon.

Uh, yeah, I think you probably "heard" about it on this forum. Why don't you scroll down a few and read more, rather than taking the lazy way out and asking? Yeesh.

What the hell does "...mutates so fast" mean?
