The c-virus has been keeping people busy for a while, but in addition to this virus, there is still the “regular” flu and the common cold virus. You can catch a cold quickly, especially in these dark and cold months. A few weeks ago I suffered from such a cold, this time it was not a nose cold but my throat was bothering me. In general I have a good resistance and I am never actually sick, besides that my last cold was years ago.
So that was a bit disappointing, sore throat, cough and eventually a nasty tickle cough. It is nice that there are natural means to deal with all these complaints. I have benefited greatly from the extensive range of Physalis Eucalyforce® based on eucalyptus, herbs, beneficial plant extracts and essential oils. What I have used the most is the throat spray, syrup and the throat pastilles. I use the throat spray during the day when my throat hurts, just like the pastilles. I used the syrup before going to sleep.
