How one #aminoacid might help fight #coloncancer and infections
Studies in mice show that dietary #arginine reduces tumor formation and viral load
In mice, eating a high-arginine diet quashed colon tumors and offered protection against the #flu and #COVID19, #cancer biologist Sohail Tavazoie of Rockefeller University in New York City and colleagues report July 30 in Cell. The nutrient appears to ramp up the #immunesystem’s ability to spot danger.

Those flare-ups are usually life-long and can be demoralizing. One idea that may help you to reduce the outbreaks and severity:
Eat foods with a high lysine/arginine ratio. Foods high in the amino acid arginine can promote herpes virus replication, while foods high in the amino acid lysine can inhibit it.
Some good food choices:
milk, cheese, eggs, fish, lentils, beans, sweet potatoes....
