Yes, there are a number of medications you can take for curing cold sores, and some work great, but wouldn’t it be nice to prevent them from getting to that point of needing medicine?

The biggest key to cold sore prevention is building up your immunity. Doctors agree that when your body’s immunity system is low, cold sores can easily form. A strong immunity system means a lower risk of any outbreak.

Lower your stress - This is the bigger of any keys in reducing outbreaks. Be conscious of the stress in your everyday life. Don’t allow yourself to get into stressful situations if at all possible.

Wear sunscreen - now that it’s summer, wear sunscreen when spending time outside. Even if it’s cloudy, UV levels can still be a major issue in bringing on a cold sore.

Add more vitamin C to your diet. Whether you eat more fruits containing vitamin C or take a vitamin supplement, increased levels of vitamin C can help build up your body’s immunity system.

These 3 simple tips can go a long way in preventing cold sores from ever forming.
