Seasonal Respiratory Support

The effects of seasonal colds and allergies range from irritable to debilitating depending on the individual and the health of the person at the time. Many alternative practitioners believe that this suffering is the result of a body that is "out of balance." When we deviate from optimal health, our normal immune system cannot cope with the foreign bodies in the environment such as opportunistic bacteria or allergens.

As the body attempts to rid itself of the foreign body, it depends on the organs of elimination to do so. These consist of the liver, lungs, kidneys, skin, mucous membranes, and the immune system. Increased activity of the mucous membranes of the sinuses, nose, throat, eyes and ears, results in secretion of mucous which acts to eliminate the foreign body. This is often coupled with inflammation of the mucous membranes and the symptoms are exacerbated.

From a holistic viewpoint, it is the cause of these symptoms which must be helped. Therefore many people take immune modulating herbs on a regular basis to augment the immune system. Additionally, many people use herbs on a short-term basis to support these imbalances and boost their well-being.
