Cough Complementary Medications, Drugs or Medicine

Coughing is a normal action of the body’s immune system and respiratory defense system. Quick, sudden bursts of air and fluids from the respiratory tract help expel microbes, dust, chemicals, and other irritants, as well as foreign objects, from the airway. This natural remedy for cough with nutritional supplements is designed based on powerful herbal components and targeted vitamins that are used to help tone the lung, clear the airways and mediate breathing.

Main Functions:

Coughing can be a symptom of an underlying infection of the bronchial tubes or lungs, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, or croup. The goal in treating a cough is to address the underlying cause. For example, with infections, the immune system must be stimulated, and for allergy-produced coughs, the allergen must be removed or you must become desensitized to it. Licorice has been traditionally used to reduce coughing, enhance immune function, and sooth the respiratory tract. Vitamin C enhances immune function for acute bronchitis and has anti-allergy benefits for chronic bronchitis. The herb mullein is included because it promotes the discharge of mucus and has soothing and anti-inflammatory effects for the respiratory tract.

Ingredients Description:

Licorice is a well-known remedy for bronchial distress. Mullein has been traditionally used for soothing dry and inflamed throats and bronchi. Ginger may help indirectly to relieve pain by reducing inflammation and by lowering the body's level of natural pain-causing compounds. N-Acetyl L-Cysteine helps the body synthesize glutathione, an important antioxidant that supports lung health. Antioxidants such as Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E can boost the immune system and support respiratory system health. Copper and Zinc are needed because long-term use of N-Acetyl L-Cysteine may increase urinary excretion of zinc, and zinc supplementation may inhibit copper absorption.
