Slippery Elm Lozenges 200 mg Tangerine Flavor
Planetary Herbals
Overview
The lozenges offer a combination of traditional herbal remedies and a vitamin aimed at throat soothing and immune support. While Slippery Elm provides a local soothing effect, and Echinacea and Vitamin C have evidence for immune modulation, the proprietary blend makes it difficult to assess the exact dosage of each herbal component for optimal effectiveness. The Vitamin C dose is at a beneficial level for daily intake and immune support.
The Good
Provides traditional soothing relief for throat irritation with Slippery Elm.
Includes Vitamin C for essential immune support and antioxidant benefits.
Echinacea offers additional immune-modulating properties for cold and flu season.
The Bad
Proprietary blend prevents knowing the exact individual dosages of Slippery Elm and Echinacea.
30mg of Vitamin C, while beneficial, is a lower dose than typically used to significantly shorten cold duration (200-2000mg).
Contains Fructose, which may be a concern for individuals monitoring sugar intake.
