Painful Mouth Sores Can Be Caused by EBV; the CBCD Examines the Medical Evidence

The Epstein Barr Virus can cause “age-related EBV-positive mucocutaneous ulcers.” (1)

 

Rochester, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/28/2015 -- "Infected with the Epstein Barr Virus (EBV)? The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD) recommends taking Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin." – Greg Bennett, CBCD

The Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), which is virus in the herpes family, can cause painful mouth sores and ulcers. In fact, according to a report, "mouth ulcers are a common symptom of poor immunity, and are frequently seen in Epstein Barr patients." (2) Symptoms can include "cracks in the corner of the mouth, a sore tongue and difficulty swallowing. These symptoms can cause a great deal of pain and discomfort." (2) EBV causes these symptoms most often in older individuals. As Dr. Magalhaes and colleagues wrote, "elderly patients who develop an unexplained, persistent ulcer of the oral mucosa should have the lesion examined for EBV." (1) Dr. Magalhaes is with the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of Toronto in Canada.

Dr. Magalhaes described the symptoms of an Epstein-Barr Virus in one elderly patient like this: "An 81-year-old lady presented to her dentist with a 3-month history of a painful, nonhealing ulcer on the left hard palate … she was a nonsmoker and did not consume alcohol. Besides the presence of a painful oral ulcer, she was well and had no systemic complaints. Clinical examination revealed a round, well-circumscribed, deep ulceration measuring 3.5 × 3.5 cm ... the ulcer had a slightly raised indurated border and a tan-white granular base. There were no extraoral lesions, lymphadenopathy or hepatosplenomegaly." (1) In other words, an older woman came into the dentist's office with a painful sore in her mouth that was not healing by itself. The sore was deep, and when tested, tissue inside the sore was found to be positive for EBV infection.

The CDC notes that "Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), also known as human herpesvirus 4, is a member of the herpes virus family. It is one of the most common human viruses. EBV is found all over the world. Most people get infected with EBV at some point in their lives." (3) The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD) recommends that in light of the medical evidence, infected individuals take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin. The formula of these natural, antiviral supplements was designed to help the immune system target the latent EBV.

The formula of Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin was tested by Hanan Polansky and Edan Itzkovitz from the CBCD in two clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines. The studies showed that the Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin formula is effective against the herpes family of viruses. The Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) is a member of the herpes family. 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 the EBV … reported a safe decrease in their symptoms following treatment with Gene-Eden-VIR." (4) The study authors also wrote that, "We observed a statistically significant decrease in the severity, duration, and frequency of symptoms." (4)

Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin can be ordered online on their respective websites, here:

Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin are natural antiviral dietary supplements. Their shared 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 was 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 and Novirin are the only natural antiviral products on the market with published clinical studies that support their claims.

Note: Novirin has the same formula as Gene-Eden-VIR. However, it contains higher quality and more expensive ingredients.

Older individuals should especially take note of sores in the mouth, and get tested for Epstein-Barr Virus infections. As Dr. Magalhaes wrote, "elderly patients who develop an unexplained, persistent ulcer of the oral mucosa should have the lesion examined for EBV. A medical history should be taken to determine if the patient is on immunosuppressive medications." (1)

What treatments are available for EBV infections?

"A few antiviral drugs are available that were shown to inhibit EBV replication in cell culture. These drugs include the acyclic nucleoside analogues aciclovir, ganciclovir, penciclovir, and their respective prodrugs valaciclovir, valganciclovir and famciclovir, the acyclic nucleotide analogues cidofovir and adefovir, and the pyrophosphate analogue foscarnet. However, clinical studies have shown that these drugs are mostly ineffective in humans." (4) There are also natural antiviral products that studies show to be safe and effective in reducing EBV symptoms. Two of these products are Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin.

"Based on the results of these studies, and the CBCD's own research, we recommend that EBV infected individuals take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin." - Greg Bennett, CBCD

The CBCD reminds the public that Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin are not a cure. However, two clinical studies showed that their formula decreases symptoms in infected individuals. Specifically, the formula of Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin was shown to safely and effectively reduce EBV symptoms. Additionally, it was designed to help the immune system target the latent virus.
