African geranium to combat cold symptoms

We're back into cold and flu season. Yes, beyond the current crisis life goes on and all the other viruses still exist and have started to reach us in turn.

Let us recall in passing that our immune system is very complex and perfectly effective in defending us. This is currently very insufficiently emphasized.

For a strong immune system

To do this, our body must be at its full potential: adequate food, good stress management, sufficient physical exercise and in a balancing environment. Unfortunately in practice this is not always the case and we thus weaken our body and open the door to infections.

On the market

Of course, many products exist to fight against these attacking agents, as well as to strengthen our natural defense systems.

Some products are even less known than others. This is the case with Umcka Coldcare products from the company Nature's Way .

These products have the originality of containing a plant that is little used but which deserves to be known: the African geranium ( Pelagornium sidoides ).

Produced in a base of water, glycerin and sorbitol, the tincture does not contain alcohol and is suitable for children aged one and over.
