Sore Throat Coat

$20.00

You know that feeling you get when you can feel a sickness coming on, especially in your throat? THIS herbal brigade is your go-to to help combat any infection that is trying to settle in.

Usnea, usnea spp., also known as old man's beard., is a lichen that grows and hangs off of tree branches. It contains usnic acid, which has been shown to have anti-microbial activity against gram-positive bacteria, and has demonstrated anti-viral and anti-inflammatory action. It's an excellent immune stimulant that is best taken at the first sign of infection.

Toothache plant, spilanthes acmella, is an antibacterial and anti-fungal herb that stimulates mucous membrane secretions and the immune system to fight respiratory infections. It can also act as a local anesthetic to ease discomfort while reducing inflammation.

Bee propolis, or bee glue, is produced by honey bees by mixing saliva, beeswax, pollen with exudate gathered from tree buds, sap flows, or other botanical sources. It is produced and used by bees in their hives to fill small gaps. Propolis is thought to have several remarkable biological properties, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, and antioxidant and has been used for centuries in healing.

Handcrafted with wild foraged usnea (double extracted in 80 proof alcohol and filter water), organically grown toothache (extracted in 80 proof alcohol) and bee proprolis (extracted in pure vegetable glycerin and filtered water).

1 oz. amber glass spray bottle

DIRECTIONS: Spray 2-3 times directly on the back of the throat and swallow. Use 3-5x/day or as needed. Shake well before use.
