Thaks for all the great input! I have never heard that about the cocnut oil! I can tell you this about me for sure, I haven't had one outbreak since I started on the Lauracidin in this particular form from Chem Labs, and all I take is a teaspoon full per day, and it comes in granules. I have missed before and have noticed my body responding in a negative way, after missing one dose. I do not get an out break but I feel kinda achy, does anyone know why this might be, and if it is good for anything else? If this helps one person it will be worth it to me. My heart goes out to you all, and truly hope you get relief either through the oil(which I have not taken, or the granules which have been 100 percent effective, and no need to put it on sores for me because I have not had an outbreak since taking.
God Bless...
