Herpes Digest was created to curate, write, and present information on herpes (news, research, solutions) to those who suffer from various types of herpes.
Research
We dig deep to find the latest research and studies on the causes and natural solutions to treat herpes. We write articles and curate news so our readers can have up-to-date information on the latest scientific findings in this field.
Solutions
While we are not against traditional medical forms of treatment, our focus is on finding natural, organic treatments and solutions for herpes.
To do this, we test (or have an associate test) various products. We try to verify clinical studies and present what we discover. If we are not able to personally test products, we rely on associates who do.
Our goal is find products with a proven track record in helping people eliviate the symptoms and root cause of herpes.
We are affiliates with many companies who produce these products. This means if you purchase a product we recommend we might get a small commission or referral fee. You can read our full disclaimer here.
Our Rating Process
Our review process is simple. We look at several factors to determine our ranking.
1) Effectiveness.
Does it work? That’s the big question everyone wants to know. So we spend time testing, reading reviews, getting feedback, and researching to provide a complete and comprehensive guide about the products effectiveness.
So, ‘does it do what it says?’ is at the top of our research.
2) Cost.
While this is not always the most important factor, I mention it here because most people ask about price early in the conversation. Is it reasonable? Is it cost effective?
In other words, does the price match what you get for the money?
3) Unique Mechanism.
This answers the question, ‘How does it work?’ How does it produce the results it promises.
We find this question is important because it gives insight into the mechanics of the product.
For example, if you are shopping for a cooling pillow, it’s important to know how each pillow works.
A shredded foam pillow cools because of the small foam pieces create gaps for better air flow.
A PCM (phase-change) pillow is comprised of substances are engineered to absorb and release heat as they transition between solid and liquid states.
These materials may be proprietary for the company selling them.
Knowing the difference in these two pillow types helps you understand how they work. This way you can make a better buying decision.
4) Customer Satisfaction.
Knowing what others say about the product has tremendous value when you are trying to make a purchase decision.
5) Ease of Use.
There is no use buying a product that is complicated to use.
We understand this is sometimes subjective (varies from person to person), but our goal is to help you know if the product is overly complicated and difficult to use.
These a few of the ways to validate products and validate our recommendations.
