Important Information about Kopec Naturals Cold and
Canker Relief
Canker sores are
recurrent minor aphthous ulcers. Canker sores are the
most common oral lesion and can be a minor irritation or a chronic painful
condition.
A canker sore can develop when a person's individual immune system is not
working optimally combined with certain irritants.
There are several irritants which can bring on an outbreak of a canker sore.
One of the most prevalent irritants that can cause an outbreak is Sodium Lauryl
Sulfate. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is the foaming agent found in most toothpastes
and liquid soaps and shampoos. Using products with SLS continually cause a
breeding ground for a bacterial or viral outbreak. All that may be needed to the
mix is another irritant such as stress or sugars (including high frustose corn syrup) for an outbreak to occur. Nutritional
deficiencies associated with Canker sores are Vitamin B's,
C, E and zinc.
Cold sores are part of the herpes
simplex virus. There are eight types of identified herpes viruses, and two are
known to cause cold sores. They are type 1 and 2. The most common cause of a
cold sore is the combination of a depleted immune system and added stress
triggers.
Sometimes a cold sore and a
canker sore can resemble each other, although we typically refer to a cold sore
when it resides on the outside of the mouth and a canker sore on the inside of
the mouth, but both can occur in either place. Kopec Naturals uses potent
ingredients that can resolve either type of outbreak as a result,
no matter the distinction you can still experience relief.
Use the salve on the outside
of your mouth and other body areas you are experiencing a herpes simplex virus
outbreak or a canker sore outbreak that has spread to
the outside of the mouth.
Use the ointment on the sores
located on the inside of the mouth. The ointment is NOT ingested, and please do
not swallow. Do NOT use before or after you have brushed your teeth. Make sure
your mouth is free of all toothpaste residue and food particles.
We make a wonderful full strength
potent mouthwash called Real Mouthwash.
Many of our customers prefer the medicinal quality of our mouth wash when
caring for mouth sores.
We also make a wonderful SLS
free all in one wash and an SLS free facial wash.
SLS stands for Sodium Lauryl
(or Laureth) Sulfate or since the recent bad press on it sometimes it is
referred to as Sodium Laureth Sulfate. SLS is the ingredient that causes your
liquid soaps, shampoos and toothpastes to foam. But SLS is quickly becoming a
well know irritant and toxin. It can be such an irritant with anyone suffering
from skin conditions, that we strongly recommend avoiding any and all products
with SLS. Since our goal is to help you clear your skin, we hope you will
consider removing at the very least the most common skin toxin, SLS, and we
know it is in everything. And we try to make this as easy as possible by
providing you with SLS Free products. For the purest skincare, avoid all Lauryl
Sulfates.
Jason brand is now caring an SLS free toothpaste, as does Tom’s of
Avoiding SLS in toothpastes,
shampoos and all liquid soaps is imperative, on a regular basis to minimize
repeat episodes.
During an outbreak, it is
important to avoid sugar in all forms (sugar, high fructose corn syrup, corn
syrup, dextrose, maltodextrin, fructose, splenda and aspartame), especially
high fructose corn syrup.
Be aware of stress levels
during an outbreak and try to manage your stress as best you can.
Supplements that can improve the
body’s ability to fight infection are a combination of the following taken
throughout the day: Vitamin B complex, Lysine,
Vitamin C, E and zinc.
