Can I use Echinacea for HSV-1?

Yes, there is evidence that Echinacea can have a direct action on HSV-1, the cause of cold sores.

However, we find that Propolis is probably a better agent against this virus, particularly a special extract known as PPE found in the product Bio-Propolis.

Please let me know if I can be of further help.
