I haven't read this book myself, because I haven't had an outbreak for several years. I take Linus Paulings recipe for Heart and Vascular disease, that includes 12 grams VitC daily and 12 grams of L-lysine daily. I do still get the tingling from time to time, but apply DMSO and it goes away. A couple of selected quotes from the website follow:
http://www.neveranoutbreak.com/dmso.htm The most important attribute of DMSO in our fight against the herpes virus is it's unique ability to enter the cell itself. Lacking a genetic material to exist on it's own, viruses can only replicate (multiply) within a cell. Once inside the cell the herpes virus is protected by the protein coating of the cell making most antiviral drugs ineffective against the herpes virus. (Of course, big pharmaceutical companies don't want you to know that.) DMSO contains oxygen. Viruses cannot exist in an elevated oxygen (or alkaline) environment. Applied properly DMSO enters the cell and kills the herpes virus. This is an indisputable fact. The Book Mr. William Fharel, author of "Never An Outbreak", is a research scientist with a vast knowledge of alternative medicine procedures based on over forty years of research. For over seven years, he has applied his knowledge to investigating herpes. The result is a uniquely powerful attack on the herpes virus described in his book: "Never An Outbreak." Mr. Fharel himself suffered from the herpes virus and has been outbreak free for 10 years.
