mushrooms to defeat the wicked herpes virus

I would be interested in knowing what your IgG test results were for HSV.  How often does anyone here have that blood test done?  

I have had success for my HSV-2 with Monolaurin pellets, Korean Red Ginseng, Astragulas, and Bioflavonoids in addition to the usual cast of helpers ie Lysine, Green Tea, and Vit D.  Olive Leaf Extract with a minimum 25% Oleuropein Extract works well during an OB.  Lactoferrin is also one of my daily regulars.  I also take daily probiotics that include Saccharomyces boulardii and Lactobacillus planetarium.  

So much info now out there online!  One thing to be aware of when using mushrooms is that they are high in arginine...so is Ginger and Vitamin C.  

Hi Ellen,

Welcome to Permies.

Folks. Fatty acids. Long and medium chain fatty acids destroy the protective envelop around HSV and FLU and HIV and RSV. Try Omega 7 (palmitoleic acid) monolaurin (Laurie acid), omega 9 ( oleic acid) or MCT oil in your favorite drink.

I'm just going to point out that you aren't going to find Cortinarius caperatus in any store...most (maybe all) Cortinarius species are mycorrhizal and as such extremely difficult to cultivate. If you learn how to ID them, they're not exceedingly rare, but around here they only pop up in the fall. I find them in mixed woods.
