How do you treat HSV1 outbreaks? Saw a couple of threads and a lot of information on preventing. BHT looks like it might help... think you can combine BHT with somethng else to eradicate HSV1 if possible? Saw also uridine might prevent HSV1 replication, cool. Whats been working for you?

I really prefer taking an effective targeted antiviral to messing around with supplements of dubious effectiveness. BHT has been linked to cancer, for example.
Also, I can usually keep outbreaks at bay for years by taking my multivitamin daily. When this gets interrupted, I have tended to get an outbreak.

Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a natural component of certain foods, such as grapes, that has been shown to have anti-herpes simplex virus (HSV) activity in vitro. To determine if it is active in vivo, the abraded epidermis of SKH1 mice were infected with HSV-1 and topically treated with 12.5 or 25% resveratrol cream or cream only. Initial studies demonstrated that: (1). 25% resveratrol cream topically applied two, three, or five times a day effectively suppressed lesion development whereas 12.5% resveratrol cream effectively suppressed lesion formation when applied five times a day starting 1h after infection; (2). when treatment was begun 1, 6, or 12h after infection, both 12.5 and 25% resveratrol were effective at 1 and 6h after infection, but not if applied 12h after infection. Comparative studies between resveratrol cream, 10% docosanol cream (Abreva) and 5% acyclovir ointment (Zovirax) were also carried out. When treatment was begun 1h after infection and repeated every 3h five times a day for 5 days, 12.5 and 25% resveratrol significantly (P=0.0001) inhibited the development of HSV-1 induced skin lesions. Acyclovir was as effective (P=0.0001) as resveratrol. Animals that were topically treated with docosanol were not protected and developed lesions in a manner indistinguishable from cream only controls. These studies were repeated with an HSV-1 acyclovir-resistant virus. As before, 12.5 and 25% resveratrol cream effectively suppressed lesion formation. The skin of resveratrol-treated animals showed no apparent dermal toxicity such as erythema, scaling, crusting, lichenification, or excoriation. These studies demonstrate that topically applied resveratrol inhibits HSV lesion formation in the skin of mice.

BHT has been linked to cancer
Do you link any research linking doses of 250mg-2grams daily to cancer or was it based on mega doses?

Here is the protocol I used:
1) Engage in activity or consume things that typically activate the virus (everyone’s are different)
2) Begin treatment immediately when prodromal symptoms become noticeable ( itching and nerve sensations, fatigue, prodromal dome forms)
3) Even though all symptoms disappear within first day, I continue treatment for 3-4 days based on the probability of the virus continuing to activate in the ganglion for several days once triggered.
Dosage with Auntie Vira’s Terpenes oil is 1ML morning , mid day, evening for 3-4 days. This seems to be the standard dose that people are using with this particular product.
Dosage likely varies between products.
I hope this information helps you guys if any of you are still around and a BIG THANK YOU to Mr Happy for proposing this strategy years ago, it has helped me reach a state where herpes virus no longer effects me or impacts my life

I am really fascinated by the antiviral activity of terpenes and wish I knew which ones were in the product I’v been using.
In all my years of combatting HSV in my body I have never experienced something that is this effective or works this fast to shut down the virus or its symptoms. I would love to hear from anyone else who has used terpenes against herpes simplex in particular or as an antiviral in general.
Thanks for responding!

Red Marine Algae is supposed to help the body recognize and kill the virus.

Good exercise, and diet. A low arginine and high lysine diet.
Herpes type 1 incidence generally DECREASES with age, so that the infections become less common with age. Even holds true somewhat into the 8th and 9th decade of life, except some weakened phenotypes it can overwhelm the brain, result in severe shingles, etc.
So all you need to do is keep your immune system in good shape and let it do its work. Unless the virus is threatening you with encephalitis or permanent loss of vision, I would say aggressive anti-viral therapy is unwarranted. This virus is one that has learned to silently exist among us, it is very different from Ebola, which causes obvious or immediate harm and distress to its host.
