Oil for cold sores

Natural Health, July-August, 2008 by Maria Holland, Olessa Pindak

A reader recommended Melissa oil from Nanda Otis as a remedy for cold sores [May 2008, page 14]. I contacted Nanda Otis but was told they no longer sell Melissa oil. Is there any other place I can order it? My husband gets terrible cold sores twice a year, and I would like to try this antidote.

Also known as lemon balm, Melissa oil comes from the Melissa plant. Its powerful antiviral properties help with cold sore breakouts. You can buy Melissa oil from oshadhiusa.com.
