This Echinamide based Syrup is a powerful, effective, alcohol free blend designed to quell the urge to cough while enhancing the immune system, helping a cold. This syrup contains a broad range of healing herbs and plant oils that work together synergistically. The addition of mullein and horehound makes it a superior expectorant, also, breaking up phlegm. The cold and cough syrup is in a base of Natural Factors echinacea honey, from hives in the echinacea fields at Factor Farms. This makes the syrup both delicious and more effective, as honey is both antiseptic and antibacterial.
What is Echinamide?
ECHINAMIDE is a patent pending extract of E. purpurea, certified organic echinacea grown in BC's Okanagan Valley at Factor Farms. This potent Cough & Cold formula includes other herbs known to relieve coughs as well as colds and contains no artificial flavour, sweetener or colouring.
Cold & Flu
Colds and flus are a part of everyday life. They are usually caused by viruses, although if left untreated, bacteria can move in and cause infection as well. Colds and flus can be treated effectively with natural therapies that both kill the infecting organism and support the immune system. Lingering or recurrent infection is a signal of an immune system that is overwhelmed. Natural therapies are also helpful in these cases, to restore disease resistance.
Cold symptoms include congestion, runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, dry cough, swollen glands and a low fever. As the cold progresses discharges may increase and become green or yellow in colour. The duration of a cold is usually 7 10 days. Flus usually have the same symptoms as a cold but are more severe. High fever, chills and body ache also occur. Flus can also attack the gastrointestinal system and cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The duration of a flu is usually one week, but full recovery can take longer.
Conventional treatment involves the use of antibiotics if the cold has become bacterial. This usually takes care of the current infection. However, the body becomes susceptible to subsequent infections if the friendly bacteria are not replaced. The overuse of antibiotics has also lead to antibiotic resistant strains of various organisms. Individuals can help to minimize resistance by using antibiotics sparingly and always taking recommendations until they are finished.
Dietary approaches to colds and flus are as follows. Increase fluid intake to decrease the viscosity of mucous secretions. A diet high in raw fruits and vegetables provides a good source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Onions and garlic are good sources of substances that make up anti-inflammatory compounds and help to kill microbes. Flaxseed and fish oils contain essential fatty acids that are anti-inflammatory. Avoid animal products because they contain inflammatory precursors. Avoid dairy products, processed foods, white flour and sugar products all of which increase mucous production.
