Zinc in supplement reduces tonsillitis symptoms
This study took a closer look at the effects of a dietary supplement, PediaFlù, which includes honey, propolis, and zinc, on children suffering from acute tonsillopharyngitis, a common throat infection. We explored how well this supplement worked alongside standard care compared to standard care alone over six days.
The results were quite encouraging! We found that children who received the supplement alongside standard treatment reported lower throat pain and erythema (redness of the throat) by day six. There were also improvements in swallowing and overall throat severity scores by days four and six. Interestingly, only one child in the standard care group needed additional treatment with ibuprofen, suggesting that the supplement may help alleviate symptoms effectively.
However, it's important to note that while zinc was part of this combination treatment, the study focused on the overall effect of all components together. We couldn't isolate zinc's individual impact on tonsillitis specifically. That said, the findings point to the possibility of using this dietary supplement as a helpful adjunct in treating upper respiratory tract infections, which may reduce unnecessary antibiotic use in pediatric care.

Since March 2020, I explored iHerb and found elderberry extract, particularly for my daughter's chronic tonsillitis. I combined it with echinacea and vitamin C when she showed signs of a cold. To my amazement, the illness did not progress for the first time in years. We avoided antibiotics, which were usual during her illnesses. This led me to research further, finding other effective remedies. Six family members have also benefited from iHerb during Covid, but I’ll discuss that later.

Strengthened immunity
Most Useful Review
I suffer from chronic tonsillitis and rhinitis, so viral infections always complicate matters. Doctors often prescribe antibiotics, but I started boosting my immune system with supplements. Zinc has really helped; I take it with monolaurin, vitamin D, and Gse at the first sign of illness. Since using this combination, I haven't needed antibiotics.

We explored the intriguing link between vitamin D levels and recurrent tonsillitis through a comprehensive study conducted at Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital. This research specifically looked at patients suffering from tonsillitis, a condition characterized by swollen tonsils, often marked by redness and pus.
Our focus was to investigate how vitamin D deficiency might play a role in the number of tonsillitis episodes experienced by individuals. The study involved collecting data on the frequency of tonsillitis attacks alongside measuring serum vitamin D levels in patients visiting the ENT clinic.
We observed that a significant portion of participants—about 78.8%—had low levels of vitamin D, defined as less than 30 ng/ml. Among these individuals, 40.9% experienced recurrent tonsillitis. In contrast, only 18.1% of those with optimal vitamin D levels (more than 30 ng/ml) reported similar recurrent issues.
These findings suggest a notable association between low vitamin D levels and the incidence of recurrent tonsillitis. While we recognize the need for further inclusive studies, this research offers valuable insights into how addressing vitamin D deficiencies could potentially alleviate recurrent episodes of tonsillitis in patients.

This is a fantastic option for throat and nose issues. I have chronic rhinitis and tonsillitis, constantly visiting the ENT. I chanced upon this drug on Ayherbe and decided to try it. I take one capsule three times daily with food. After about two weeks, I noticed results; the ENT has not been needed for three months. So judge for yourself whether the drug is effective!

The best! This stuff is potent. If I am unwell, I take a double or even triple dose until my symptoms improve. Oil of oregano has aided my recovery from tonsillitis, urinary tract infections, and food poisoning. During an epidemic, I would rely on oil of oregano alongside raw garlic, olive leaf extract, and high doses of vitamin C.

I purchased this for my 4-year-old son who suffers from recurrent tonsillitis. This echinacea has greatly helped. During flu, I gave him 10 drops three times daily, but now that he’s better, it’s 5 drops every other day. His immunity has significantly improved, and I haven’t noticed a throat infection in quite some time. If this is helpful, please give me a thumbs up.

I discovered serrapeptase from another company, but as it was out of stock, I opted for this more economical version. Generally, serrapeptase is the best medication that has helped me overcome tonsillitis. I intend to continue taking it for another six months in hopes of reducing scarring. So far, I've experienced positive results over 2.5 months of use.
