Wild Cherry Bark: Old and revered herb used by Native Americans that has a powerful antitussive (cough suppressing) action. Used for dry, hacking coughs that are accompanied by spasms. Due to its astringent, sedative, antispasmodic, and bronchodilator actions, it dries mucus, increases expectoration, eases coughing, and opens the airways.
Mullein: An expectorant, which means it helps the body expel excess mucus, usually by helping make your coughs more productive, to bring up mucus that may be settling in the chest or in the throat.
Rosehips: High in vitamin C to boost immune system.
Elderberries (Sambucus Nigra): Rich in antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties. Elderberries may help reduce swelling, fight inflammation, and boost the immune system to ease symptoms like sore throat, cough, and more.
Echinacea Purpurea: May strengthen your body's immune system, helping you fight colds and flus caused by viruses or bacteria. Echinacea is an anti-inflammatory, supports upper respiratory health, and is a great source of antioxidants.
Cinnamon: Contains powerful medicinal properties. Cinnamon has been used as an ingredient throughout history, dating back as far as Ancient Egypt. It used to be rare and valuable and was regarded as a gift fit for kings.
One study found that cinnamon supplementation could significantly increase antioxidant levels in the blood while reducing levels of markers used to measure inflammation, such as C-reactive protein.
Cinnamon has potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antiviral properties.
Clove: High in antioxidants. Also antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory to aid in overall wellness and immune system boosting.
The above listed benefits are based on traditional and ancient uses. These may or may not be supported by scientific studies and western medicine philosophy.
