We examined the effectiveness and safety of Cough (EMA) granules, a treatment for upper respiratory disorders, through a clinical trial with 150 participants aged 3 to over 15. Half received the granules, while the other half received a placebo. Our results showed that those who took the Cough (EMA) granules experienced improvements in cough, cold, and flu symptoms. Furthermore, the treatment was well tolerated, suggesting it can be a beneficial option for managing these conditions in children and adolescents.

We investigated whether nasal saline could help prevent colds and flu in children. In a study involving 401 kids, we divided them into two groups: one receiving standard medication, and another using a seawater nasal wash alongside standard care. Over 12 weeks, we noted that those using the saline experienced faster relief from nasal symptoms and had fewer instances of rhinitis later. They also took less medication and reported fewer school absences, highlighting the potential benefits of this simple treatment.

Highly effective in flu
11 people found this helpful
Natural REALLY is better! I wish I had started using this sooner. Initially, I bought it for my toddler to combat colds, but it has been a miracle for the whole family. Being pregnant, I had to switch to a natural cold and flu formula. This year, I had only one cold, which lasted just a few days. Recently, we contracted the flu; despite having the flu shot, I believe this helped us avoid prolonged sickness. I started taking it on the day I fell ill, and after a rough day, I felt better. My temperature never exceeded 100, and I began to recover in under two days. It also helps with cough. My son started earlier and bounced back quickly. The flu is frightening, and black elderberry truly assists—it will always be in my cupboard.

Echinacea works wonders

I (36) used elderberry and Echinacea as soon as I had flu-like symptoms and when friends suffered with the flu in 2018. This combination worked better than TAMIFLU!
