This product may have the following benefits
(please
read this important notice concerning supplement medical claims)
May help symptoms of:
- Congestion and inflammation of
the mucous membranes
- Catarrh
- Middle ear infections (otitis
media)
- Recurrent ear infections
- Glue ear
Otitis media (middle ear infection) is
a very common childhood condition affecting 20% to 40% of children under
six years of age.
The Eustachian tube regulates pressure
in, and clears fluid from, the middle ear. Obstruction of the Eustachian
tube leads first to the build up of fluid and then, if bacteria start
to grow, bacterial infection.
Glue ear is the result of chronic otitis
media, and leads to hearing loss through fluid accumulation in the middle
ear.
Diet is often relevant in catarrhal conditions,
with white flour, sugar and dairy foods being common culprits. Plantago,
through its anticatarrhal action, helps disperse accumulated congestion.
Recent research has indicated that Plantago
may cause aversion to smoking.

Herbs
For thousands of years, herbs have been used to help maintain many aspects of health
and wellness. Today, research and technology are bringing herbalism into the modern
age – with improved extraction, standardization, and farming methods. Clinical studies
are beginning to validate herbal therapies, so even some in the medical community
are starting to accept them.
Many of today’s medicines
were originally derived from botanicals. Aspirin once came from the white willow
tree, quinine from the bark of the cinchona tree, and digitalis from foxglove. Herbs
are still the basis for Chinese medicine and are important constituents of many
European natural remedies. As Hippocrates said, “Let they food by thy medicine,
thy medicine be thy food”.
Some of the herbs available
on this site are wild-crafted – grown in the wild – while others are meticulously
cultivated on herb farms.
