Larrea tridentata has been in existence for over 12,000 years and has been scientifically documented as the oldest living plant on earth. To the native tribes of the Southwestern desert in the United States, it was often referred to as “medicine chest.” Traditionally larrea was used for a range of health conditions including chicken pox, digestive disorders, sores, inflammation, rheumatism, influenza, bronchitis and the common cold. In 1995 the larrea plant jumped to the forefront of research when three articles by scientists at John’s Hopkins University detailed the efficacy of the plant’s extracts to inhibit the replication of the HIV1 virus.

It was this ability to prevent virus replication that caught the attention of clinicians, in particular the effectiveness of Larrea against the herpesvirus. The herpes virus is extremely prevalent in most of the world. The herpesfamily of viruses is made up of approximately 80 distinct types of viruses andit is probable that some type of herpes virus will affect nearly everyone intheir lifetime. Far more than just a simple cold sore, strains of the herpesvirus have been implicated in many serious human diseases.

Although the symptoms of herpes may not be obvious, new research tells usthat the viruses are quite active, inflicting constant, cumulative damage tothe critical organs in our bodies as they replicate at a low level throughoutour lives. Because herpes viruses are excellent at evading the forces of theimmune system, we have often felt defenseless against these viruses.

Larrea has demonstrated invaluable promise in the fight against numerousherpes virus conditions. Larrea’s active constituents function aspowerful antioxidants, which also assists in inhibiting viral replication. Bystopping the invasion and survival of herpes virus in the body, furtherdestruction of healthy cells is alleviated. The active antiviral compounds ofthe larrea plant have now been formulated with other herbs and nutrients knownto have antimicrobial and immune support action.

Complementary Nutrients for a Comprehensive Formula

ZincA biologically essential trace element and a vital cofactor in manybiological processes including DNA, RNA and protein synthesis. Zinc also playsa role in immune function and wound healing. Research shows that zincsupplementation improves cellmediated immune response, including natural killercells and Tlymphocyte activity. This arm of the immune system is activatedduring the body’s defense against viral infections. In addition zinc hasshown specific antiviral activity against the herpes virus.

Propalis—A resinous material from poplar and conifer buds used by beesfor hive maintenance. Propalis has been used medicinally for abcesses and woundhealing since 350 B.C. The potent flavanoids found in propolis exhibitantiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal activity. In addition propolis extracthas powerful antioxidant effects and suppresses inflammatory metabolism.

Llysine—Lysine has been reported to reduce viral replication bymodulating the production of arginine. Llysine provides nutritional support forthe body’s natural defense against infections. When taken orally Llysinehas been shown to reduce replication of the herpes virus and decreases severityand healing time.

Vitamin C, Melissa officinalis & Olive leaf extract—The activeconstituents of these nutrients have demonstrated potent immune support andantioxidant properties. Together they provide important protection againsttissue damaging free radicals and maintain normal immune cell defenses.

Q: What do you have for shingles.  I am over most of it but still have residual issues.  Thanks.

A: I recommend you go to a pharmacy and obtain Capsaicin ointment. Apply topically to your scalp where the pain remains. Apply as needed.

You may also try applying apple cider vinegar directly to the sores on your scalp. I have been told this relieves the pain but have not heard results personally. It is worth a shot.

To get rid of the shingles, it is important to boost your immune response in order to get the herpes zoster virus under control.

To get your immune system working well, there is an immune formula designed specifically for shingles.

LarreaPlus by Biogenesis is what I recommend to those suffering from shingles. Consider taking 2 capsules three times a day initially to speed up the immune response. I have had great success using LarreaPlus with those suffering from Shingles.

Taking 1000 IU of Vitamin B12 three times a day is also suggested to improve pain relief. Vitamin B12 protects the covering around the nerves and helps rebuild it when damaged. Thus, this reduces the pain and restores nerve health.

Once the pain is reduced, continue taking Vitamin B12 at 1,000 IU per day for 2 weeks after in order to fully heal your nerves.

Fish oil is a potent anti-inflammatory when taken in doses of 5 grams a day. It also protects the nerves thereby decreasing pain. If taking a liquid fish oil, one can obtain 5 grams of EPA/DHA in 3 teaspoons. I recommend this fish oil supplement.

It tastes quite good so that is not an issue. Make sure you take the Fish Oil with food for best absorption. You may take it once a day at dinner if you like or space it out throughout the day. Three teaspoons of Fish Oil should not cause any bowel disturbances if your gall bladder is intact and you take it with food.

Liquid is more cost effective than capsules. If taking capsules, you'd have to take about 10 gelatin capsules in order to obtain sufficient EPA/DHA levels to alleviate pain.  If you prefer capsules, though, they may be found here.

If you are under a lot of stress, this typically causes shingles. Let me know if this is an issue and we can address that. I am not sure which product to recommend as people have different types of stress.

These tips should resolve your shingles quite effectively.

Should you have any other questions, please do ask.

In health,
Dr Ben
