St. Francis Herb Farm Respirafect, 100 ml

Respirafect - Easing Your Way Through Lung & Bronchial Infections

Long a vital part of our repertoire of bestselling formulas, Respirafect is an extremely valuable herbal combination created specifically to alleviate lung and bronchial infections, especially those accompanied by sputum coughed up from the lower airways. With its soothing demulcent action, Respirafect helps the lungs eliminate the burden of excess, waste-laden mucus generated by the body’s response to illness.

With a distinguished history of medicinal and folkloric use in the Middle Ages, usnea leads off the ingredients in this product, setting the tone with its enduring reputation for the effective treatment of bronchial illnesses, colds, and coughs. The remaining six herbs make for a unique synergistic complement to the angelica, adding their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as other highly relevant respiratory aspects, to the overall strength of this outstanding formula.

The infection-fighting qualities of Respirafect make it a perfect companion to our RespiraCleanse formula, which is oriented towards the mitigation of coughs.

All doses should be taken three times daily in a little water on an empty stomach. Take at the first sign of infection.
