Viruses can hide in the ganglia (a nerve cell cluster) and turn off autophagy, a state in which the body recycles damaged proteins. Here, the viruses can lie dormant until stress levels rise, which increases cortisol and weakens the immune system.
Emotional stress can significantly weaken the immune system. This is why many dormant viruses come out of remission after a stressful event, such as losing a loved one.
The herpes and shingles viruses are often seen after a significant stressor. These viruses need the amino acid arginine to survive. Lysine can block arginine and stop the reproduction of these viruses. You need at least 1000 to 3000 mg of lysine to block arginine.
Sciatica typically stems from a disc problem. Copper deficiency is at the root of many disc problems, so it can be an excellent solution for sciatica. A copper supplement or copper cream can help reduce sciatica pain.

0:00.0 | The one vitamin that reverses nerve damage. The reason I want to talk about this one vitamin is because |
0:06.1 | it's the most common deficiency behind most nerve problems. Let's start with viruses. And I'm talking |
0:13.5 | about two viruses that have the potential to go into the nerves on the face and create conditions |
0:19.6 | like Bell's palsy. They can hide in this little |
0:22.5 | nerve bundle called the ganglia. It's like a mini brain within the nerves that have this |
0:26.8 | bundle of nerve cells. What's unique about it is the viruses go into those areas, those little |
0:33.1 | bundles, to evade the immune system and kind of fly underneath the radar. And what the viruses do |
0:40.6 | is they can turn off something called autophagy. Atopagy is a condition where you're recycling |
0:47.1 | damaged proteins, but you're also recycling pathogens, bacteria, yeast, fungus, molds, and viruses. And because they're in this |
0:55.7 | nerve bundle, they can hide with our immune system and they just kind of go to sleep. And |
0:59.8 | our immune system doesn't know that they're there because they're not really doing anything, |
1:03.9 | but just waiting for your stress to go up. Because when you have stress, you have cortisol. |
1:09.7 | Cortisol is an immune suppressant. |
1:11.6 | One of the most severe stresses that someone can go through is an emotional stress. |
1:16.6 | And this is why a lot of these dormant viruses come out of remission after a stress event. |
1:21.6 | Loss of a loved one is a huge one, loss of money. |
1:24.6 | And I've seen this a lot of times in practice with someone with a |
1:27.5 | herpes virus or even shingles. I'll ask them what happened just before this. And sure enough, |
1:32.6 | it was a stress event. And they can come out and create other problems too like fibromyalgia, |
1:36.5 | also problems on your face as well. There's one thing unique about those viruses. They need |
1:41.8 | the amino acid called arginine to exist. And it just so happens that |
1:46.6 | arginine competes with another amino acid called lysine. If you have enough lysine, you can |
