Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2 (IgG) are the two main types of herpes virus that cause oral and genital herpes. Blood tests can detect IgG antibodies to the viruses, indicating current or past infection.

iollo markers that associate with Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2 (IgG)*

Arginine

Arginine is required for herpes simplex virus replication. Higher arginine levels may support increased viral activity and antibody response.

Lysine

Lysine supplementation is thought to reduce herpes simplex virus replication and outbreaks by competing with arginine. Lower lysine levels may increase risk.
