Do you guys think this is legit? I have tried looking for some reviews but I have not seen any negative ones yet.

Scam or not?

The only reason why I would think it is a scam is because if its guaranteed, it should be a life long money back guarentee instead of a 60 day.

So is it a scam or not?

Also, please dont troll the blog, I am asking TL because there are some smart ass people that view these boards.

and yes, I have spent a couple of hours looking on google to see if anyone said this was a scam or not. just curious to see if any TL'ers have seen this before.

.....

They make it pretty obvious when they use the traditional scammer/whackjob format of a single, impossibly long page with bold, multicolored text.

I am considering this. There is a money back guarantee.

my understanding is that cold sores are a form of oral herpes? and so there are no cures? You just sit tight and wait for them go go away. If it is legit the USA commercials should be all over it now since i'd assume there is a huge market for it.

Money back guarantees are available on all "scam"-ish items. It's just a pain in the ass to get it done, and often you end up giving up out of frustration, or it takes a call to the BBB to see it through.

I skimmed through the page, and I saw a testimonial from "Josh Upton" from Syracuse, NY...haha. Is it just me, or do testimonials for these kinds of products always come from Syracuse, NY? Also, no offense to the real Josh Uptons out there, but that sounds like the John Doe of the 21st century, to be honest.

Reason why I dont think they would do this is to make money. There is a huge market for cold sore remedies. If there was an ultimate cure, then no one would waste their money on buying Abreva and other shitty stuff like that.

Similar to light bulbs. Common lightbulbs these days have a very thin strip of magnesium which keeps the bulb lighted. However, back in the old days, they made lightbulbs with thick strips of magnesium. Thicker strips means longer life. For reference, check out the 100 year old light bulb. (http://www.firehouse.com/news/2001/6/11_bulb.html) So if someone made a lightbulb that never went out, then there would be no lightbulb industry. Thus, if someone made something that can cure coldsores, then there would be no coldsore industry.

Money back guarantee? No questions asked? Then why won't everyone just complain that it doesn't work and get their money back? LOL

But it seems you are so intrigued by this that it's hard to convince you. So yes, go ahead, buy it and report back to us. I doubt you'll get your money back though.

cold sore? you mean herpes? 1 in 4 americans has the virus.
there are various creams that act to block the virus as it tries to reproduce on your face. no cures though..yet

Cold sore = herpes simplex infection. This is cured with drugs like Aciclovir and such (it is available in pills and as a cream). High doses of Vitamin C help (like 3000 mg per day, divided in 5-6 smaller doses). Also the amino acid Lysin helps as it is said to replace a viral component (I can't remember the exact name so I use the word component) in the metabolic chain if the virus.

This is what science tells us. This is what I believe. The rest is bullcrap to take away people's money.

ps: I have herpes simplex infection. It show from time to time (when my immune system is compromised, that's why I take vitamin C on a daily basis) but nothing severe.
