Toddler isn't getting sick anymore!

I started giving this to my 3 year old who began preschool this year and has been sick every other week since Thanksgiving! She brings it home and gives it to ALL of us including our 1 year old. After a few weeks of drinking this syrup, our 3yo isn't getting sick anymore but the rest of the family is still getting sick. I don't know if it's just lessening her symptoms or helping her fight it faster but it seems I accidentally A/B tested our 3 year old vs the rest of the fam and bottom line: I just ordered two more bottles for the WHOLE family. We're all going to take it. So sick and tired of being sick and tired!

Only complaint is its so good I wish it came in a bigger sized bottle! My family drinks it as a tea with hot water in the mornings before school and evenings during fall and winter.

So delicious!

And I love the affirmations 😊

Everyday Seasonal Support

Our teenage son loves this as a tea warmed up with honey & lemon to boost his immune system. I use it daily during the winter months as it tastes delicious and feels good on the bod!

delicious!

Lovely, healthy start to every day.

Elderberry

We reach for elderberries during the change of season, back to school, travel and general wellness. It’s wonderful for nipping an active infection in the bud, as well as nourishing our innate immunity when taken preventatively. Enjoyed on an on-going or seasonal basis, we can become stronger and more resilient!

Rosa spp.

Rosehips

Rosehips provide a rich herbal source of vitamin C and flavonoids. They also have an affinity for supporting the heart and cardiovascular system. Their food-like nature makes them desirable and safe to use as a daily tonic for cardiovascular, skin and immune wellness.

Ganaderma Lucidum

Reishi

Reishi is a powerful immune tonic as well as an excellent respiratory trophorestorative. It is a versatile mushroom that can help manage stress as well as support immunity. Reishi is classically referred to as the mushroom of immortality in Chinese culture and medicine and was held in high reverence by Chinese healers, sages and emperors. Known as a Shen tonic in Chinese medicine. Shen can translate to "spirit" or "consciousness".

Avena Sativa

Milky Oats

Milky Oats are known as a nervine tonic and trophorestorative (a deeply nutritive restorative) for the nervous system and endocrine system. Sweet and gentle, milky oats have a nourishing and rebuilding quality. As a calming and soothing herb, milky oats are useful for promoting emotional well-being and stability when taken long term and helps improve sleep quality or any kind of mental agitation.

Urtica Dioica

You’ll find minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium potassium rich in nettle leaves, as well as vitamins A, C, K and B vitamins. Because of its versatility, you’ll find mighty nettle as a key plant in all four of our syrups!

Sweet, nourishing and versatile, jujube dates are delicious additions to bone broth or tea. Its also a well known traditional post-partum food. Similarly to licorice, jujube is considered a harmonizer to herbal formulas, thanks to their sweet and nourishing flavor and taste.

The peel of orange has been traditionally used in East Asian medicine for thousands of years. The cut peel contains enzymes, flavonoids and phytonutrients. In addition, the aromatic orange oil found in the peel has an affinity for the digestive system and the respiratory system.

Zingiber Officinale

Ginger

Ginger is a powerful rhizome with traditional and modern usage spanning centuries, cultures and traditional medical systems. Found in cuisines and in our kitchens, ginger is a true example of food as medicine. Its a wonderful circulatory stimulant, heart tonic, digestive aid and infection fighting herb. Hot and dry, ginger has a diffusive effect on the body's vessels and organs, helping drive the effect of ginger, and other herbs with it, into the tissues.

Magic

My co-worker keeps a bottle of this in the office fridge for anyone who needs it. I was skeptical but I’ve seen it tame quite a few coughs. I’ve got a cold with a nasty cough and thought I’d give it a try. I can breathe deep without coughing for the first time in days. Just bout a bottle for myself and picked up another to try too!

Brandy

I love this syrup and have purchased it at various stores throughout the bay over the years! I would give five stars if they offered a version that is alcohol free with glycerin instead of brandy. I'd be ordering by the case and taking it daily. I appreciate that the alcohol is gluten free, but even small amounts of alcohol (even the amount in vinegar) are hard for me to tolerate so I'm not able to take this regularly. Otherwise this syrup quality and ingredients are amazing. I hope they will consider making a formula sans alcohol or vinegar with glycerin or honey instead.

It is worth your money

Best medication I have taken I had a very heavy. Flow and it would last me longer than seven days. I took this syrup and now I have my period for five days which should be normal. Also, only two days period was heavy Compared to having it heavy until my period ended, I recommend this product. You won’t be disappointed.

Great, but...

I love all the medicines so much, but the amount of sugar is just too much. Admittedly, I'm working on other areas where I can cut back on sugar in my diet. I will have to pause on these until I can keep things under control.

Hi Jessica,
Thank you for your review!
Our syrups are sweet indeed, though we use local, raw honey, not refined sugar.
To extract constituents from plants, herbalists traditionally either use alcohol, vinegar, honey, or water. This medicine is as sweet as it is to both extract and preserve without additives or chemicals, using honey and water extraction.
The result is a traditional herbal syrup. If you are finding them too sweet to take a spoonful (or swig) of, try diluting them in bubbly water with a squeeze of lemon for a yummy beverage or adding a couple of tablespoons to your tea.

Recommended by my nutritionist and I love it!

Anemia runs in my family, and while I seem to wax and wane with it, my FMP and nutritionist recommended this, and I LOVE it. It tastes delicious! Not sure if it's because of the title but I do feel stronger.
