Doctors' responses
–To help reduce cold sore outbreaks caused by the Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1, try improving your diet by adding more fruits and vegetables. Good options include citrus fruits, berries, apples, bananas, spinach, broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers because they support the immune system. Also include foods rich in lysine such as yogurt, milk, eggs, fish, and chicken. Try to limit foods high in arginine like chocolate, nuts, and peanuts, as these may trigger outbreaks in some people. Aim to eat fruits and vegetables daily and maintain a balanced diet.
