Description
Horehound Blend is an herbal combination to help strengthen the lungs, reduce bronchial inflammation, and promote expectoration, which facilitate easier breathing and is suggested for asthma, chronic bronchitis, and respiratory congestion. While Over-The-Counter (OTC) medications tend to suppress all coughs, the Horehound, Mullein and other herbs in this blend work as expectorants, supporting the bodys natural desire to rid itself of excess mucus.
Horehound Blend contains herbs which support the respiratory system & linings of the lungs. It is a dietary supplement; kids love the taste.

Additional Information
Horehound has been used as an expectorant cough remedy since ancient Egyptian times (Bown, 1995). Horehound has been used traditionally as an expectorant, to treat whooping cough and non-productive coughs of bronchitis and tuberculosis (Felter and Lloyd, 1985; Grieve, 1979; Newall et al., 1996; Tyler, 1993). Since these conditions are now primarily treated with antibiotics or prevented with vaccines, horehound's use as an expectorant is not as common, despite evidence that attests to its probable efficacy (Tyler, 1993). Animal studies have shown that horehound preparations are choleretic. This activity is attributed to the marrubic acid, which, in laboratory tests, increased bile flow in rats (Krejci and Zadina, 1959). Marrubiin has also been observed to enhance bronchial mucosa secretion, and to have cardiac actions. The British Herbal Compendium indicates its use for acute bronchitis, non-productive coughs and catarrh of the respiratory tract as well as for lack of appetite and dyspepsia (Bradley, 1992). In France, it is indicated for use as a cough remedy and to treat acute benign bronchial affections (Bradley, 1992; Bruneton, 1995; DPM, 1992).
