How to Use (Traditional Method)

For fast, effective support, take approximately 5 mL (1 teaspoon) and hold at the back of the throat for several minutes before swallowing.

This allows the active compounds to directly soothe and support the throat and upper respiratory tract. After swallowing, take a slow deep breath through the nose to help carry the herbal vapours into the sinuses and chest.

Take up to three times daily during illness, or once daily for general immune support.


Barb’s Note

“This one’s a powerhouse — my winter warrior. You can feel it working straight away in the throat, chest, and sinuses. Hold it, breathe with it, and let it do its work.”
