I too see this protocal as one that would work since i have seen awesome results. This keeps it very simple - Monolaurin dissolves the virus's lipid coating (900mg), exposing it to the immune system and Miracle-Mineral-Supplement destroys it among contact. My outbreaks and symptoms have disappeared but like you said, you must be persistent and not give up. Diet is extremely important, since your immune system is what truly kills the virus after it is strengthened by Miracle-Mineral-Supplement - eat alkaline foods only. Have you tried this yet or are you just begining to experiment? I would be very interested in knowing your success or lack of success. You can email me at earl_miller@live.com
