Soothe that Throat “Tickle” Naturally with Respicol

Having a cold, post nasal drip or seasonal allergies often comes along with an annoying, scratchy tickle in the throat. Many conventional medicines contain harsh ingredients and have a list of side effects. Respicol® is a natural herbal syrup which integrates the traditional benefits of a unique blend of botanicals. It works within minutes to soothe irritated throat passages for fast relief without causing drowsiness. While other remedies may allow a dose or two per day, you can take Respicol as often as every hour until symptoms alleviate.

What is in Respicol?

Respicol, 4 oz.

Specially selected herbs are blended in a honey and syrup base to work with your body’s lymphatic, digestive and immune systems. Historical application of these herbs suggest they harmonize the systems of the body, enhancing the body’s ability to detoxify and cleanse.

Horehound has been used for centuries as an expectorant. Traditionally, ancient Egyptians used horehound as an aid in clearing mucus from the respiratory system. It soothes those irritated mucous tissues especially in the throat.

Wild Cherry Bark alleviates distress especially of the nose and throat by relieving swelling of mucous membranes. It is also effective for boosting sluggish digestion.

Respicol, 8 oz. bottle for soothing throat tickle

Rhubarb is a mild stimulant to liver and gall bladder. This will help clarify the system and remove toxins that may be causing irritation to the respiratory system.

Wild Ginger tones and purifies the digestive tract and the lymphatics associated with the intestinal tract. This herb enhances circulation and supports the body’s immune response which may help relieve the scratchy tickle in the throat which causes the urge to cough.

Many of the herbs in Respicol aid the function of the body’s lymphatic system, assisting it in cleansing and detoxifying thereby supporting proper eliminations. Once these systems begin to work more effectively, the body’s circulation improves helping to clear the throat and respiratory systems… stopping that annoying tickle from coming back.

How has Respicol Helped Others?

“I wanted you to know that I think Respicol is a great product. Recently, I had a cold with coughing that had lasted a while…I bought a bottle, followed the directions, and immediately my coughing eased. My throat was so much more comfortable. I now have a bottle in reserve, just in case. Thanks for making Respicol available!” – T.W.

“My husband has a job talking a lot at night, sometimes he has to talk for hours on a phone call. This stuff [Respicol] saves his throat.” – L.B.E., Colorado Springs, CO

Oral Hygiene Includes More Than Just Brushing and Flossing

Bruce Baar, MS, ND     |     Kathy Baar BS, RDH

Oral hygiene, by definition, is the practice of keeping the mouth and teeth clean. We grew up learning how to brush our teeth and are often reminded by our dental hygienist that flossing between teeth is just as important.  Healthy gums are vital to our overall well-being. They are a protective type of tissue that cover the roots of the teeth adding support, as well as providing a barrier to plaque and bacteria. Keeping your teeth and gums healthy can prevent damage to the deeper tissues and bones which hold your teeth in place.

What is Ioxan?Ioxan of oral hygiene Product Image

Ioxan™ is a natural herbal gum massage formula that helps to stimulate the gums, soothe mouth ulcers and support the body’s ability to fight bacterial growth in the mouth. Containing a blend of natural ingredients including Prickly Ash bark, Calcium Chloride, Sodium Chloride and Iodine, this unique formula works to protect teeth and strengthen gums. Ioxan™ may be massaged into gum areas, brushed on as liquid toothpaste or diluted for use as a natural mouthwash.

How does Ioxan help oral hygiene?

Traditionally, Native Americans chewed the bark of the Prickly Ash tree for its numbing effect on toothaches. The shrub became known as the “toothache tree” and its bark is still used today for dental health. The primary herbal ingredient in Ioxan™, Prickly Ash Bark, acts as an antiseptic and enhances circulation to encourage healing of the tissues surrounding the teeth.

Another ingredient, Sodium Chloride (salt), acts as an astringent to shrink swelling of the gum tissue, as well as improve the flow of saliva. This allows other beneficial ingredients, such as the Prickly Ash Bark and Iodine, to reach and strengthen the deeper tissues surrounding the teeth. Salt can also increase the pH of the mouth, alkalizing it to deter the production and reproduction of many bacteria which cause diseases such as gingivitis.

Calcium Chloride, when dissolved into water, produces calcium ions. Being an aqueous solution, Ioxan™ provides the teeth with calcium ions which are essential to the process of the mineralization of teeth and bones.

When massaged into the gums, the Iodine works to combat the bacteria that cause tooth decay and gum disease. It can also be beneficial for relieving mouth ulcers.

Use Ioxan™ daily or several times a week as part of your regular dental hygiene program. Taking proper care of your mouth can help you keep your teeth for a lifetime!

“I bought Unscented Palma Christi Skin Lotion for my mother to help with dry skin. Not only did it help with that, but it helped with some redness she had on her face also!” – S.B., Louisville, KY

“I love the products. I am ordering the Palma Christi lotion for myself and my family. It has changed my appearance of my “older” face to look like I have had a face lift!!! I noticed a difference but when several people asked me what I was doing, well!!! Thanks.” – S.O., Warrington, PA

“Just had to tell you how GREAT that skin lotion is. Yes, it was good on my hands, but when I got home I put it on my itching legs and the itching stopped almost instantly. That’s a first as I have tried everything Marge brings into the house for skin care. Your lotion is #1!!!!!! Nothing else is even close. Many thanks!!! – W.G., West Chester, PA

“I ordered one of your products about two months ago, I think, and was very impressed with the Palma Christi lotion. I have psoriasis which is a fancy word for excessively dry skin – and have found that the lotion is wonderful for my condition. Fortunately, my psoriasis is mild and usually clears completely in the summer sun, but the Palma Christi lotion has almost taken its symptoms away without exposure to sun. I also appreciate that the pump in the bottle works all the way to the last bit of lotion in the bottle. (Most pump-action dispensers give out with 1/3 to 1/4 of the contents still trapped in the bottle.) You can be sure that I will replenish my supply of that lotion.” – N.L., Kentwood, MI
