How To Stay Healthy This Winter
Staying healthy is almost on everyone’s list every winter. But this year, in the midst of a pandemic, it may be even more of a concern than usual.
Read moreA.Vogel's Plantago Tincture is a traditional herbal remedy used in the treatment of sinus congestion, middle ear infections and catarrh. Plantago is one of the few herbs that penetrate the middle and inner ear canal. Its natural antibacterial property helps to counter all ear infections. It has mucous membrane soothing properties which may help people alleviate the suffering associated with tinnitus and also helps catarrh due to chest infections and nasal congestion.
The soothing action of Plantago is attributed to its mucilage content together with iridoids which have an anti-inflammatory activity helping to promote tissue repair. This makes Plantago Tincture extremely useful for alleviating sinus congestion and post nasal drip which often leads to other complications such as chesty coughs and catarrh.
Plantago Tincture, due to its soothing action, may also benefit tinnitus sufferers.
