Hilde Hemmes Herbals Echinacea Root Herbal Extract 100mLNative American Indian tribes were the first to use the echinacea root for a variety of ailments and, until the 1800's, it was one of their best-kept secrets. Around 1870 a German physician formulated a medicine containing echinacea that became popular in European households. It was not until the 1900's that echinacea gained recognition amongst healers in the west. As the interest in echinacea increased, hundreds of scientific studies have been conducted with the various species. There has been much confusion as to which species is best and which plant part to use e.g. root, tops or plant juice. Echinacea purpurea root has been proven in a well-conducted clinical trial involving 180 volunteers. Hilde Hemmes' echinacea product is identical in strength and extraction to that used in the clinical trial.Today echinacea is recognised as one of the most exciting herbal discoveries for healthy immune function and to assist in the management of upper respiratory tract infections. Herbal liquids are especially suitable for people with poor digestion as they are quickly assimilated into the body. They allow flexibility as dosages can be tailored to specific age groups. Hilde Hemmes’ Herbals unique liquid production process extracts every possible ounce of goodness locked away in each herb, yet never compromises the active medicinal ingredient. Medicinal Use Clinical trials prove that echinacea purpurea root is beneficial in the treatment of upper respiratory tract infections, such as colds and flu. As a powerful immuno-stimulant, it helps to maintain a normal, healthy immune system. Taken regularly (especially by athletes) it can not only provide relief of the symptoms of cold and flu, but can also assist in the treatment of flu by reducing the severity and duration of symptoms. Active Ingredients Each 5 mL contains Echinacea purpurea extract equiv. to dry root 1 g (1000 mg). Features / Benefits Listed with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) as a herbal medicine.

Hilde Hemmes Herbals Bronchial Cough Relief Herbal Extract 200mLThe cough reflex is a vital part of the body's defence mechanism that helps clear the bronchial tract of secretions and foreign material. It may simply be due to bronchial tract infection or irritation from environmental pollutants. A long-standing, painful, bronchial cough may be due to other underlying causes and should be evaluated by a qualified practitioner. Bronchial Cough Relief extract is a western herbal medicine that combines the traditionally-used herbs marshmallow, liquorice, iceland moss, fennel, plantain and thyme. Marshmallow, plantain and iceland moss contain mucilages that form a protective coating in the upper respiratory tract, shielding the mucosal surface from irritants. Essential oil-containing thyme has been included for its antispasmodic and expectorant actions. Pleasant-tasting liquorice and fennel are also proven expectorants which help soothe airways, relieve bronchial congestion (catarrh) and promote the discharge of phlegm and other irritants from the bronchial passages. Herbal liquids are especially suitable for people with poor digestion as they are quickly assimilated into the body. They allow flexibility as dosages can be tailored to specific age groups.

Hilde Hemmes Herbals TravilAid Ginger 60 CapsulesSuffering from travel/motion sickness can be an awful experience, but is usually harmless. Travel sickness can occur in just about any mode of travel, such as cars, planes, boats and buses, and is caused by conflicting messages received by the brain.
