Your throat is scratchy

And you’ve got that sinking feeling.

It’s NOT allergies… and you’re NOT just feeling “off.” You’re SICK.

But you waited too long to take PREVENTATIVE measures like echinacea and elderberry… and you don’t want to feel MISERABLE just waiting it out.

It’s not too late for you…

Fortunately, there’s ANOTHER herbal hero that can get to work while you’re already in the thick of a common coldsinusitisbronchitis… and more.

It’s a tribal “root cure” that’s been time-tested by AGES of use in traditional African medicine.

And it provides a drug-free way to address the underlying causes of upper respiratory infections.

A healing ‘warrior flower’

South African traditional medicine has used the root of the South African geranium (Pelargonium sidoides) for AGES.

This “dark continent” cure began to spread throughout Europe around the turn of the last century…

Though it’s only been in the last 30 years that it’s been available commercially.

Europeans nicknamed it umckaloabo — derived from the Zulu words for “respiratory infection” and “chest pain.”

Nowadays, most folks around the world just call it “umcka” for short.

Research shows that it works as an antimicrobial — primarily by SABOTAGING the attempts by bacteria and rhinoviruses to LATCH ONTO your respiratory tract!

But that’s not all…

Because it also DEPLOYS your body’s own immune defenses to fight off the infection naturally.

As a result, umcka has been shown to…

  • SHORTEN the infection’s duration
  • , including reducing the frequency and severity of coughs, and
  • STOP secondary infections (like when a cold “turns into” bronchitis).

However, even the makers of umcka-based products don’t fully understand HOW it works.

Researchers THINK that its main active compound is a type of coumarin called umckalin

And since it can interfere with blood clotting, don’t mix it with any blood thinners.

Otherwise, its CENTURIES of traditional use prove that it’s safe enough to give to children!

Umcka’s other common names include “black geranium” and “Cape pelargonium”…

But the European Medicines Agency has approved it under the name “pelargonii radix.”

It’s sold as Kaloba in the UK and EPs 7630 in Germany.

HSI’s own Dr. Glenn Rothfeld recommends the product known by the brand name Umcka Coldcare, from the maker Nature’s Way.

It may take a week for you to fully recover… but you could start feeling better within just FOUR DAYS.

To getting better faster,
