I have had cold sores a few times in my life, so I know I have HSV-1, but I also know I don't have HSV-2. I did have Chicken Pox (Herpes Zoster), but I am not sure about the 5 other Herpes Viruses, although it is likely that we all have several of them. Most of these viruses have very defined symtoms and aren't suspect as a potential causes of other diseases unless you are severely immunocompromised as is the case with AIDS. The most suspect of these is EBV and, as I pointed out, Agmatine probably inhibits it. With that in mind, I am going to do a trial of Agmatine for a couple of months. Hopefully I will find some real benefit from it or, at least, some placebo effect. I will let everyone know if I believe it helped at all.
