Hello,

Considering the amino acid LYSINE is FDA approved for herpes as ABREVA, it is quite possible that food substances could work. They have lysine in them.

Some large, complex chemicals of hypericum are being looked at for anti-viral properties BUT, the larger and more complex the less gets in orally. They could still be used as being rubbed on.

St. Johns, however, taken orally has effects on liver metabolism and interferes with many drugs being removed through liver metabolism.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
