Cold & Flue Remedies
While there are many herbs and nutrients to choose from, these are 4 of my favorite herbal remedies for helping address the early stages of cold, flu, and seasonal illnesses. In many years of clinical experience, I have found these to be very effective for many people and they are easy and convenient to take. Each formula is used for specific symptom patterns and they can be taken alone or in combination with other herbal formulas, if needed.
(NOTE: If there are further questions regarding these formulas, please contact Dr. Ensweiler regarding their usage.)
