Hilde Hemmes Herbals Bronchial Cough Relief Herbal Extract 200mL

The cough reflex is a vital part of the body's defence mechanism that helps clear the bronchial tract of secretions and foreign material. It may simply be due to bronchial tract infection or irritation from environmental pollutants. A long-standing, painful, bronchial cough may be due to other underlying causes and should be evaluated by a qualified practitioner.

Bronchial Cough Relief extract is a western herbal medicine that combines the traditionally-used herbs marshmallow, liquorice, iceland moss, fennel, plantain and thyme.

Marshmallow, plantain and iceland moss contain mucilages that form a protective coating in the upper respiratory tract, shielding the mucosal surface from irritants. Essential oil-containing thyme has been included for its antispasmodic and expectorant actions. Pleasant-tasting liquorice and fennel are also proven expectorants which help soothe airways, relieve bronchial congestion (catarrh) and promote the discharge of phlegm and other irritants from the bronchial passages.

Herbal liquids are especially suitable for people with poor digestion as they are quickly assimilated into the body. They allow flexibility as dosages can be tailored to specific age groups.

Hilde Hemmes’ Herbals unique liquid production process extracts every possible ounce of goodness locked away in each herb, yet never compromises the active medicinal ingredient.
