Physiological effects

  • Respiratory infections like bronchitis and sinusitis are widespread infectious diseases among adults and children. The most widespread of these is the common flu, with symptoms such as running nose, sore throat, heavy cough and light fever. Symptoms usually last 5-10 days. 90% of all flus are caused by viruses.
  • Zinkosan ® Fresh Mint is a tasty lozenge for sore throat and easier breathing. Its effective ingredients  Zinc is in well-absorbing citrate form,  while Vitamin C together with standardised Pelargonium extract boost the immune system. Menthol and Freshmint aromas give a fresh feeling in the respiratory channels helping to open a stuffed nose.
  • Zinc is an antioxidant with cell protecting properties and it regulates the activity of nearly 200 enzymes; it is an important factor in resistance and it also has a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin. Vitamin C and zinc are powerful antioxidants that work together to complement each other.
  • Standardised EFLA® 956 Pelargonium root extract originates from the Pelargonium sidoides DC plant, which is found in South-Africa. The extract has been standardised to polyphenol umckalin. In addition, the extract contains proantocyanides, coumarins and tannins.
  • Pelargonium extract physiologically supports recovery from the flu.
    Pelargonia root extract has a threefold effect profile:
    antimicrobial: prevents bacteria from entering the body and prevents them from growing
    antiviral: prevents viruses from entering the body
    boosts immune system: activates interferon formation and NK cells (natural killers)
  • Not recommended during pregnancy and lactation due to the lack of studies in these target groups. Not recommended for use with warfarin.
