The time has come to bring out the shields! Winter is upon us and it is beginning to knock more insistently.
These days the wind is blowing colder, the days are getting shorter, and we seem to smell something different in the air.
In this season of sudden temperature changes, flu, cold, cough and sore throat are just around the corner.
On a case-by-case basis, here are Naturetica's natural supplements we recommend to better cope with winter ailments!
Natural cough supplements
Medilum Snail Extract: This is an ancient Bavarian recipe that combines Alpine Snail Burr extract and Raspberry juice. Despite its name, it has a very pleasant taste and is also suitable for children. Medilum syrup is useful for treating dry and oily coughs, with an antibacterial action on the mucous membranes.
Fluituss Forte: is a concentrated mixture based on Mallow, with added trace elements of Manganese and Copper that stimulate immune defenses. Also in the formula are Grindelia, Plantain and Thyme, which promote normal function of the upper respiratory tract and fluidity of bronchial secretions.
Natural supplements for sore throat
Winter Help Well-being Throat: is Erismus, Drosera, Mint and Poppy-based spray with anti-inflammatory and soothing action on inflamed mucous membranes. Just 5-6 sprays are enough to feel immediate relief. It is also great in those cases when you wake up without a voice.
Phytomella Gola: is the throat supplement as good as candy, with no added sugar, suitable for vegetarians and naturally lactose-free. PhytoMella Throat Wellness exerts a barrier and antibacterial effect on mucous membranes while moisturizing them. It is formulated with Manuka Honey, Althea, Mallow and Hyaluronic Acid.
Natural flu supplements
Asper Zinc: is the supplement to keep in your wallet at all times, thanks to its convenient pocket size. Winter Help Asper Zinc is made with Cistus, Zinc, Willow, Blackcurrant and Rosehip, which together counteract flu symptoms and boost immunity.
Winter Help Shield Family: is the supplement for the whole family that shields against viruses entering the body. It contains Lactoferrin, Manganese, Copper, Zinc and Vitamin D, which exert antiviral and antibacterial action and stimulate the body's natural defenses.
Winter Help Immuno Complex combines the combined action of Cistus and Echinacea Purpurea. Echinacea is an ancient remedy for treating cold and flu symptoms, while Cistus contains a high percentage of polyphenols, which have the ability to bind to bacteria while blocking their colonization.
Natural cold supplements
Pelargonium Plus: Pelargonium Sidoides is known for its strong antiviral, antibacterial and mucus-thinning properties. This plant is able to fight infections affecting both the upper and lower respiratory system.
In Pelargonium Plus we have also combined Rosehip extract, high in Vitamin C, Copper and Zinc, which contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system.
Good Breath Balsamic: a blend of essential oils such as Eucalyptus, Mint, Lavender, Lemon , Thyme and Scots Pine that give an immediate feeling of well-being and freshness to the respiratory tract.
Just 2-3 drops in the handkerchief or 8-10 drops added to the suffusion water will be enough to start breathing heavily again.
Winter Help NAC acts as an expectorant on mucous secretions. It contains Vitamin C, which stimulates the production of Leukocytes; Thyme, with antiseptic and disinfectant action; and Myrtle, which acts as a natural antiseptic; finally, Grindelia and Drosera, which help calm inflammation of the oropharyngeal mucosa.
These were the natural supplements for coughs, sore throats, colds and flu that we recommend.
