Herpes Simplex Cold Sore or Rheumatoid Arthritis? You Decide.

Her­pes Sim­plex is almost an envi­ron­men­tal haz­ard unto itself. The virus is capa­ble of infect­ing every­one from humans, cats, dogs, cows, horses, and even sea tur­tles. The infected sea tur­tle devel­ops large tumors from the infec­tion so that it can­not swim and starves or suffocates.

Antiviral Effect of Sambucol (Elderbery Extract) is Not Strain-Specific

Image via Wikipedia

Sam­bu­col is  fig­u­ra­tively a blend of elder­berry juice con­cen­trated and rasp­berry juice for fla­vor sweetened.

As a com­men­ta­tor I use this prod­uct as well as over the counter bulk elder­berry extract for any viral infec­tion. Per­son­ally I have used a direct appli­ca­tion of the extract on cold sores and found a com­plete remis­sion of […]

HSV-1 and –2) Found Suseptible to a Large Number of Small Molecules, Such as Phenolics, Polyphenols, and Terpenes (e.g., mono-, di-, tri-)">Herpes Simplex Viruses (HSV-1 and –2) Found Suseptible to a Large Number of Small Molecules, Such as Phenolics, Polyphenols, and Terpenes (e.g., mono-, di-, tri-)

Her­pes sim­plex viruses (HSV-1 and –2) are impor­tant pathogens for humans, espe­cially in the case of highly sus­cep­ti­ble adults. A large num­ber of small mol­e­cules, like phe­no­lics, polyphe­nols, ter­penes (e.g., mono-, di-, tri-), flavonoids, sugar-containing com­pounds, were found to be promis­ing anti-herpetic agents. Our major con­clu­sion is that nat­ural prod­ucts from med­i­c­i­nal plant extracts are very impor­tant source of anti-HSV agents. Cedar­wood oils con­tain ter­penes (e.g., mono-, di-, tri-), phe­no­lics, and polyphe­nols.

RNA Virus Polio-1">Juniperus Oxycedrus Wood Oils Found Anti Viral Against RNA Virus Polio-1

The extracts obtained at dif­fer­ent pres­sures were tested for cyto­tox­i­c­ity, antivi­ral and antimi­cro­bial activ­i­ties. The results showed that the extracts of leaves and berries of Junipe­rus oxyce­drus obtained at 200 bar were cyto­toxic against dif­fer­ent cell lines used to sup­port virus growth. As far as antivi­ral activiy is con­cerned, some of the extracts were active against a single-stranded RNA+ virus (Poliovirus-1).

Prions andd Their Effective Communicative Disease Transmission

Prion pro­teins stretch tra­di­tional views of pro­teins in bio­log­i­cal sys­tems.
New research shows that they can be infec­tive in soil as long as 16 years.

These pro­teins are attrib­uted to the Mad Cow Dis­ease, but has shown up in var­i­ous forms in dogs, cats, sheep, elk and deer.
