Every member of my air force reserve unit was given a written order to get the pfizer vax by October 3rd. We had to sign saying we acknowledge. 40% of my base, meaning 800 reservists recieved this order. Id be shocked if more than 100 actually get it. While at a meeting with the chaplains for religeous waivers, a military doctor came in. He couldnt answer a single question I asked nor could dispute a single fact I stated, almost all gathered from here. The 80 people in the meeting all believed the same as me but didnt have exact reporting numbers from VEARS nor exact info from other countries. Definitely caught a ton of looks and even had multiple groups come up to me for more info. I want to personally thank every single person on here that has posted covid related info on here. A lot of normies are awake or waking up and need guidence. You all provide it. Wwg1wga

Amazing. I have a friend who has taken this for years for cold sores and it clears them up. I take it for mouth sores, not cold sores but which I think are related to the shingles I had a few years ago. The shingles virus is related to the virus that causes cold sores. I get the mouth ulcers if I eat a lot of high arginine foods like nuts. They disappear if I take Lysine for a day or two. I never had them before I had shingles and before then I could eat high arginine foods like nuts with no problems.
No side effects that I've seen. It's an amino acid. You can also find lists of foods that are low in arginine, high in lysine. Oh, and you can get a large bottle at Walmart for a few bucks.
BTW, scoripowarrior, I think you should post this info in its own thread.
I'd be willing to bet the ulcers are not from the arginine in nuts or any other food. Nuts have a lot of anti-nutrients, including phytates which block mineral absorption.

The healthiest sources of arginine are from animal foods.
No, any foods high in arginine can trigger cold sores. No one knows what causes mouth ulcers but I noticed they only appear when I've eaten a lot of arginine - nuts, grapes, etc. I think at least for me they're related to cold sores and that I have dormant virus from shingles. I NEVER had any problems with mouth sores before I had shingles, which is itself caused by dormant viruses from having chicken pox as a child. I do know what causes them is arginine and what stops them is lysine. It's happened over and over.

I have no calcium or iron deficiencies or anything else. My doctor checks every three months along with several other vitamin and mineral levels. Just had it checked in July.
That first link of yours lists foods "high in arginine." They are all plant foods.
Animal foods have high (and better) sources of arginine, and people who eat only animal foods do NOT report these types of problems. If anything, these types of problems clear up on such a diet.
If taking lysine solves the problem, that begs the question: What diet are you eating that you don't have enough lysine, since that is an amino acid in all animal foods?
Lysine is one of the essential amino acids (our body does not produce it, so we must get it in our diet), but arginine is not (our body does produce it).
If you are a vegetarian, or especially a vegan, then it all makes sense. Vegans are malnourished because their diet necessarily gives them a severe imbalance of nutrients. But if not, then it seems like something strange is going on.
It might be possible to get an inbalance of amino acids (too much arginine and a lack of other AA's) if eating nuts a lot and other foods not as much. Maybe, at least theoretically it might make sense.
Arginine is used to build various parts of the body, and then any excess is converted to nitric oxide and stored in the endothelial cells.
Maybe eating a bunch of nuts and no animal foods with it might produce an imbalance of arginine vs. other amino acids, such that the functions arginine is used for are not allowed to happen because of the lack of other AA's, such as lysine.
The problem with ALL plant foods is that they (a) are deficient in nutrients because they have low bio-availiability for humans (unlike the nutrients in animals foods), (b) have anti-nutrients (unlike animal foods), and (c) the amino acids are missing and in the wrong proportions (unlike animals foods).
If taking an essential amino acid (lysine) solves a health problem, that should be a strong clue to look at the diet for the cause of the problem.
Why on EARTH have you gotten it into your head that I'm eating gobs of nuts and little or no meat. I eat plenty of meat. I love meat. I'm certainly no vegetarian. I get mouth sores if I eat a couple of tablespoons of nuts. You really need to look into your need to make assumptions based on nothing.
Thanks, but I seem to be too inept to make a "thread post". LOL no matter how I try I always screw it up....yep really.
