Coughs, colds and flu

Do you have an annoying cough or constantly stuffed up nose? Have you been feeling under-the-weather for weeks?  Are you going down with yet another cold?

If the answer is yes to any of these then the chances are your immune system is not working as well as it should be. All sorts of problems, ranging from simple stress to more serious underlying illness, can be the cause.  Unfortunately once we catch one virus or bacterial infection , we become to prey to another as our immunity is already weakened by the first infection .

The answer is to stop this vicious cycle in its tracks  For most of us, our immune system can easily be boosted with plant medicines. And any lingering infections can be killed off by anti-bacterial and anti-viral herbs which a qualified practitioner can prescribe.

A good immune tonic is particularly useful for the parents of young children or those, such as teachers, who work with kids. In fact  a herbal tonic  will benefit  anyone who is exposed daily to large numbers of people either through work in shops, hospitals etc or by travelling on public transport.

We are surrounded by bacteria and viruses but if we are in good health we should be able to shrug off whatever comes our way.
