Rochester, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/06/2015 -- "Infected with the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 or HSV-2)? The CBCD recommends taking Gene-Eden-VIR." – Greg Bennett, CBCD

The herpes virus (HSV-1), which normally causes cold sores and fever blisters, can also damage the inner lining of the throat. When this happens, it is called herpes esophagitis. "Herpes esophagitis is a viral infection of the esophagus (the esophagus is the tube that leads to the stomach). The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) causes herpes esophagitis. This is the same virus that causes cold sores and eye infections such as conjunctivitis. The inflammation and open sores of herpes esophagitis can cause pain and can damage the throat tissues. Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is another form of the virus, which causes genital herpes but does not cause herpes esophagitis." (1)

One symptom of herpes esophagitis is difficulty in swallowing. Dr. Tariq Yousuf and colleagues wrote in a study that "when immunocompetent patients (patients with a mostly healthy immune system) present with odynophagia (painful swallowing), the most common etiologies include pill induced esophagitis (inflammation of the esophagus), toxic ingestion or severe reflux esophagitis … HSV is the most common cause of esophagitis typically from a reactivation of prior infection." (2) Dr. Yousuf is from the Department of Internal Medicine at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, IL.

WebMD notes further that esophagitis is cause for concern. "If left untreated, this condition can become very uncomfortable, causing problems with swallowing, ulcers, and scarring of the esophagus. In some instances, a condition known as Barrett's esophagus may develop, which is a risk factor for esophageal cancer." (3)

Medline says that once an individual is infected with the herpes virus, "the virus hides within nerve cells and remains in the body. It can remain latent for a long time … the virus can reactivate at any time. This may be triggered by: Fatigue, Genital irritation, Menstruation, Physical or emotional stress, Injury etc." (4) Patient.co.uk points out that normally, HSV-1 causes cold sores and fever blisters that "are usually seen on the lips and extend to the skin around the mouth. Other areas on the face, chin, or nose are sometimes involved. Lesions begin as erythematous areas (abnormally red areas) that swell into papules. These become vesicles, which then collapse into ulcers. This takes 1-3 days. The ulcers crust over and the skin returns to normal within about two weeks." (5)

The CBCD recommends that individuals infected with the herpes virus, realize the significant impact of the latent virus on their health, and not ignore it. Hence, the CBCD recommends that these individuals take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin. These natural herpes remedies have a natural, antiviral formula that was shown to safely and effectively reduce Herpes symptoms, such as those mentioned above, in two separate post-marketing clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines.

One mission of the CBCD is to help combat chronic diseases that are caused by latent viruses, such as the latent HSV. Therefore the Center strives to raise awareness about this, and other latent viruses and their effects. This is important because many people do not understand latency.

What is latency?

After an initial period of activity, herpes establishes what scientists call a latent infection. When a virus is latent, it behaves like it is sleeping. It is latent.

How does one defeat the latent herpes virus?

The best defense against a latent herpes infection is a healthy immune system. That's why the CBCD recommends taking Gene-Eden-VIR.

The formula of Gene-Eden-VIR was tested by Hanan Polansky and Edan Itzkovitz from the CBCD in two clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines. The studies showed that the formula of Gene-Eden-VIR is effective against a broad range of latent viruses, including herpes viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2). The clinical studies were published in the peer reviewed, medical journal Pharmacology & Pharmacy, the first, in a special edition on Advances in Antiviral Drugs. Study authors wrote that, "individuals infected with (a latent virus) … reported a safe decrease in their symptoms following treatment…" (6) The study authors also wrote that, "we observed a statistically significant decrease in the severity, duration, and frequency of symptoms." (6)

Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin are natural antiviral dietary supplements. Their formula contains five natural ingredients: Selenium, Camellia Sinesis Extract, Quercetin, Cinnamomum Extract, and Licorice Extract. The first ingredient is a trace element, and the other four are plant extracts. Each ingredient and its dose were chosen through a scientific approach. Scientists at polyDNA, the company that invented and patented the formula, scanned thousands of scientific and medical papers published in various medical and scientific journals, and identified the safest and most effective natural ingredients against latent viruses.

To date, Gene-Eden-VIR is the only natural antiviral products on the market with published clinical studies that support its claims.

What treatments are currently available for herpes infections?

"Two types of antiviral treatments against HSV are available: topical and oral. The treatments include penciclovir, acyclovir, famciclovir, and valaciclovir. However, their effectiveness is limited. For instance, a meta-analysis of five placebo-controlled and two dose comparison studies evaluated the effect of aciclovir, famciclovir or valaciclovir on symptoms. The meta-analysis showed that oral antiviral therapy decreases the duration and the associated pain of an outbreak by merely one day." (6). Gene-Eden-VIR is an oral supplement with a safe and effective formula designed to help the immune system target the latent herpes virus.
