Holistic Health; Therapies, urine
After 50 yrs of pretty much pretty good health, except for the big bout of childhood pneumonia, and the standard colds throughout my life, mild non major STDs of early gay sex exploration yrs ago. My mom was proud of herself for nurturing me and keeping my health up. But I finally got it.
A cold sore. Not a big one, but I got it, with my cold.
1. This is the second time, in my whole life, since Christmas that it occurred. Never had one before. My mom got them all the time. But always careful when she had it.
2. Guess my system is changing.
3. I don't even remember if or when I had chickenpox or measles. I think I did.
4. I do know that with the stress of Mom passing last yr, my colds did increase. Got bronchitis,and a tad of pneumonia, which I have not had since early childhood. So yes, guess the stress, frequent colds since the holidays did compromise my immune system. And maybe not enough recoup time from gym and colds probably did not help.
5. So I am pissed. I know about 80% of the population get them, but I am pissed.
6. After 3 days, it is almost gone, but I am pissed.
7. So after searching the net for homemade remedies (which are very interesting), and things to do to prevent the occurrence, I stumbled onto this one
8. Urine Therapy. Readily practiced in Japan, Europe, and even by our friends in the animal kingdom.
9. Odd as it seems, urine is not a waste produce as feces is. It is a filtered product of the blood
10. I remember in my college days (believe it or not I have a BS in Biology), this was mentioned quite a bit in my studies of the Renal System. Also in my studies, many professors did not knock the holistic or ancient ways of medical practice. In fact they embraced them. (Odd for a school noted for pre-med, that they would tout such practices. So what happened to the pre-med students who graduate and enter the medical community to later end up foo fooing the ideas if ancient medicine, and embellishing the prescription drug ways to curing?).
11. Anyway, here is an easy to read link from one of many sites.
12. If I ever feel the beginnings of a cold sore, I will, as with ice, lysine, peroxide, try urine too. Why not.

The only treatment that's really likely to make a cold sore go away any faster is an antiviral drug, and the only one that's available over the counter is Abreva. It's expensive, about $16 for a little 2 gram tube of ointment, but it works. I get cold sores fairly often, maybe once or twice a year, and Abreva makes them go away two or three days sooner. You have to start using it as soon as you feel the characteristic tingling at the start of an eruption, and apply it frequently until the sore is on its way out.
