Iron therapy reduces cold sore frequency
Response to replacement iron therapy in sideropenic individuals with recrudescent herpes labialis.
Directly addresses cold sore treatment
We investigated how iron replacement therapy affects the occurrence of cold sores, also known as recurrent herpes labialis, in people with low iron levels, a condition known as sideropenia. In our study, ten patients with confirmed sideropenia and a history of cold sores took ferrous sulphate for three months.
Before starting the treatment, these individuals reported experiencing an average of 0.78 episodes of cold sores each month. After the iron therapy, this number significantly dropped to just 0.2 episodes monthly. Furthermore, we found that there was a noteworthy increase in serum ferritin levels, a marker indicative of iron status, after treatment.
The results suggest that iron therapy may play a significant role in reducing the frequency of cold sores for those affected by iron deficiency. These findings are intriguing and warrant further exploration into iron supplementation as a potential option for managing cold sores in individuals with low iron levels.

Cold sore relief
I cannot live without this product. During childbirth, I experienced cold sores along with a sore throat and fever each month, and despite numerous visits to the doctor, I was at my wit's end. I discovered I might be lacking in iron and zinc, and after starting this supplement, my symptoms vanished. Initially, I tried other brands but they contained little iron. Now Foods, which is significantly more potent and affordable, has worked wonders for me. Although the smell was initially off-putting, I soon got used to it.
