DOUSE inflamed airways with this ‘leaf syrup’

Your throat is SORE from all the HACKING…

And your chest feels like its BURNING UP.

Whether it’s an upper respiratory infection… asthma… or simply allergies…

All that coughing feels like it could really DO YOU IN.

You can try to NUMB your throat with OTC sprays… and SETTLE your cough with pharmaceutical syrups…

But your BEST option yet might NOT come from the pharmacy shelves.

It could come from the branches of an ancient Chinese tree!

Here’s what I mean.

The loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is native to China… and is often nicknamed “Chinese plum.”

You’ve read right here in eAlert how loquat could help keep frailty at bay.

But in Traditional Chinese Medicine, loquat leaf… which is known as “Pi Pa Ye”… has also been taken to EASE respiratory issues for AGES.

It’s a key ingredient in the ancient Chinese formulation for the cough syrup known as “Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa”… which is commercially available even today… and even in this country.

Loquat’s ability to CALM a cough could be attributed to its content of ursolic acid… which works as a powerful anti-inflammatory.

That could also help other respiratory issues associated with excess airway inflammation… like bronchitis and asthma.

There’s more…

Because loquat leaves are also PACKED with antioxidants.

And in a 2020 animal study, researchers found that loquat leaf could help SUPPRESS both inflammation and oxidative stress caused by cigarette smoking in subjects with COPD!

Loquat has also shown the ability to BLOCK histamine release… which contributes to its actions against seasonal allergies.

You can drink loquat leaves boiled in hot water as a tea…

Or look for loquat cough drops from Japan at your local Asian specialty store.

Planetary Herbals’ Loquat Respiratory Syrup combines loquat with slippery elm, licorice, and more… and should be available at your local health food store or online.

Other natural options for cough and respiratory inflammation include marshmallow… ivy leaf… and primula.
