Question:
today i am researching how diet affects HVS and outbreaks, i found this interesting article:

Popcorn has a high argine to lysine ratio, but those prone to herpes can still enjoy it. After popping, sprinkle with Nutritional Yeast (from the health store). This adds a cheesy flavor to the popcorn. The arginine is neutralized because one tablespoon of nutritional yeast contains 190 mg. more lysine than arginine.

Now, i was worried because i eat a lot of grains, all the things on the "bad" food list, but here i'm thinking that adding a considerable portion of Nutritional yeast to every meal might work well, especially when eating whole grains since the above suggests that arginine can be "neutralized"... Angevita yeast is particularly tasty, and high in vit. B.

Answer:
Yes- I use nutritional yeast as a part of my daily diet- although up to now I have been eating a high arginine diet (coffee, coconut, whole wheat bread, etc)- so I can't say anything about it's efficiency-but I've been doing a lot of reading yesterday/today, really reading about HSV-2, triggers, and I am making the conscious decision to change my diet, because I don't want my life to be hindered by OB that I could be preventing by my diet.
