The most miserable feeling ever is to wake in the morning with an itching, tiny blister on your lip.
Anyone who has suffered from a fever blister can explain this.
It's the beginning of two weeks of dreadful distress and agony.
Since I'm a fever blister sufferer, I can speak first hand.
I've had to face 2-3 blisters occurring together once every 2 months.
When I was 7 years old, I had my first fever blister.
It kept on coming from that time once every 2-3 months, in each case lasting for 2 weeks.
They were very painful.
Finally I was placed on an acyclovir which helps in decreasing the time spent with fever blisters, but only for around 2 days.
But this did not help in eliminating them from coming again.
The reality is that there is no treatment available to eliminate the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) which causes fever blisters.
After feeling miserable, I found out that there is a way to terminate the virus using natural methods involving the diet and the lifestyle of a person.
The breeding ground of the HSV-1 virus is the acidic regions in your body.
The consumed foods which are highly acidic found in many western diets provide a good surface for the growth of the virus.
The other causes for an acidic environment in the body are from stress and illness.
The most basic foods -- those that will reduce the acidity of your diet -- are spinach, broccoli, and other green vegetables, and these, when utilized properly, will best help fight acidity in the body.
By controlling the level of pH in my body by incorporating small changes to my food and lifestyle, I have been cold sore free for the last 2 years.
