Considering all the botanicals that grow above the waterline, you might think there would be some beneficial bioactives growing beneath it as well—and there are!  Marine plants are finally becoming recognized for their botanical value, just as their terrestrial counterparts have been for centuries.  We have selected a family of plants that have long been recognized as effective in inhibiting the replication of various strains of HSV invitro. They have also been used safely by Alaskan compounding pharmacists for more than 25 years, with many anecdotal reports of their efficacy against cold sores.  We need your help to demonstrate that AlgalAid is at least as effective as the leading cold sore treatment.

If you are in good health but often get at least three cold sores a year, please enroll today in this double-blind survey.  You will receive a sample of either AlgalAid or the control cold sore treatment.  All the information is confidential and your mailing address will be discarded as soon as the completed survey form is returned.  Help us stop your next cold sore!

After you have used your sample and completed the feedback form, we will send you a free tube of AlgalAid.

We are sorry that we must exclude anyone subject to other skin conditions near the lips and/or being treated with other antivirals or immunosuppressive agents.
