BIO-PROPOLIS
Cold Sore Barrier Ointment –alternative to Lemon Balm as seen on BBC 2's 'Grow your own Drugs'
Enlist the power of propolis to heal a cold sore
For many people, cold sores are triggered by sunlight, stress or fatigue, which is why they strike inconveniently at holiday time. Fortunately, Bio-Propolis can help. Propolis is the bee's antiseptic, reducing the growth of bacteria, viruses and moulds inside the hive. Bio-Propolis is made from a unique patented propolis extract gathered by bees from Canadian polar trees with a high flavonoid content, which grow in a very unpolluted area.
How it works
Apply it five times daily for the duration of the cold sore. It helps to soothe the discomfort and acts as a barrier against secondary infection.
Here's the proof:
A double-blind, placebo controlled trial involving 68 patients looked at the effect of Bio-Propolis on cold sores. The group using Bio-Propolis healed in an average 6.2 days, whilst the placebo group took 9.8 days to heal. The Bio-Propolis group also found that they were pain free significantly earlier than the placebo group. 100% of them said they found their treatment to be very or somewhat effective.
Healing time was reduced by 3.5 days – definitely worth trying
The Journal of Clinical Research 2001, vol 4, 65-75
Propolis is rich in synergistic compounds; amino acids, trace elements, flavonoids and minerals, a mix that is impossible to replicate in a laboratory.
A.Vogel Bio-Propolis should be applied five times daily for the duration of the cold sore. The tube is small enough to fit in a handbag or pocket when travelling. It costs £5.39 for 2g from health stores.
Bio-Propolis is most effective when combined with Lysine, an amino acid that helps prevent and treat symptoms of the Herpes virus. For more information refer to Healthnotes
