How Do I Use Supplements To Ease Shingles?

Shingles & Supplements

To help relieve pain following the outbreak of Shingles, take 1,200 to 1,600 IU of natural vitamin E daily - BUT for no more than two weeks under a doctor's care and ONLY if you do not have high blood pressure. Vitamin E is a wonderful anti-inflammatory but it can also thin the blood.

Other helpful supplements include the amino acid L-lysine. Take 500 mg one to three times a day BUT only for one week. This helps replenish the level of lysine in your body.
