Eriodictyon californica, known as Yerba Santa, is a plant species native to North America, such as California and Oregon. The Leaf of Yerba Santa is typically used for medicinal purposes.  Yerba Santa tends to have an affinity to the lungs and is typically used for respiratory conditions, ranging from the common cold, asthma, tuberculosis, and chronic bronchitis.  Yerba Santa is also used for inflammation of the airways of the lungs. California Yerba Santa leaf extract was used by Native Americans and early settlers as a remedy for cough, colds, grippe, and asthma [1,2]. The leaves are an aromatic pleasant-tasting tonic herb that may reduce spasms, expel phlegm, and lower fevers[3, 4]. They have been especially recommended for treating diseases of the chest and respiratory system, including asthma, and are also used in the treatment of hay fever[5, 6, 3].   Suggested Use: 30 drops (1mL) in water or juice, 1-3 times daily, or as needed. Yerba Santa History Yerba Santa (Eriodictyon sp. Benth.)     By Forest Jay Gauna, Modoc National Forest     Yerba santa is Spanish for “holy weed” or “holy herb.” The three most commonly seen and used species are E. californicum, E. trichocalyx, and E. angustifolium, for northern, southwestern, and eastern California respectively. This genus belongs in the Hydrophyllaceae, or Waterleaf family: this family is known for its beautiful flowers (exempli gratia, baby blue-eyes and fivespot). With taxonomic changes, this family may soon be subsumed into the Boraginaceae, or Borage family, another family well known for colorful flower displays: forget-me-nots, bluebells, and Cryptantha belong to this family. Other species of this genus (E. altissimum and E. capitatum) are protected rare species.     Eriodictyon is a Greek compound word meaning “woolly net,” referring to the fuzzy underside of the leaves. The leaves are tough and leathery, simple, long (3 to 4 inches), and slender (lanceolate), often sticky with resin, with alternate arrangement along the stem. The flowers are white to lavender or purple, and shaped somewhat like little trumpets. The plant itself is about 3 to 4 feet tall. It has been recommended as a landscape plant in appropriate areas, especially in areas suffering from erosion; however, it is competitive and may invade more established gardens.     The Spanish name applied to this plant comes from its famous use as a potent medicinal herb in native California, and its use was quickly adopted. Today, herbal extracts of Yerba Santa can be found in herbal medicine stores. Native Californians used its leaves in the form of a tea, with which they treated respiratory sicknesses, colds, and stomachaches (as well as simply made a cup of tea). A hot, potent extract can be applied hot to a poison oak rash to quicken healing. A poultice of leaves may be applied to flesh wounds, sore muscles, above bone fractures, and where rheumatism strikes. It was also used as a smoke plant, which was said to help those with asthma. In addition to smoking, the leaves can be chewed upon for pleasure.     Apparently, bees who visit the flowers of this plant “make a deliciously spicy amber honey.     Source: "U.S. Department of Agriculture."

Zinc is a trace mineral that is essential to many biological functions. These include immune resistance, digestion, reproduction, physical growth, blood sugar/insulin control, taste, and smell. It is important for the function of over 100 special proteins known as enzymes, which are needed to speed up chemical reactions in the body. Chelated Zinc is a special mineral form that is better absorbed by the digestive tract. Chelation refers to a unique molecular mineral bond that is formed when amino acids are attached to a mineral to speed its transport across the intestinal tract. Our Amino Acid Chelated Zinc 50mg is formulated for optimal absorption to help support the wellbeing of the body.†   BENEFITS The body needs zinc to make DNA, RNA, insulin, dozens of enzymatic reactions, and to facilitate immune response and cellular repair and renewal. Chelated zinc may be vitally important for healthy skin, connective tissue, and normal prostate function.† An amino acid-mineral combination will withstand the stomach acid in intact form. This makes it much easier to absorb minerals. Combinations of minerals with other substances like carbonates, sulfates, or chlorides do not stand up to the acid in the stomach. The bonds break apart and the minerals are poorly absorbed. Testing suggests that the chelated minerals are absorbed two to six times better than non-chelated minerals.† When minerals are bound to amino acid chelates, they are carried along through the stomach and small intestine wall, where vitamins and minerals are absorbed through the bloodstream.†

Our gluten-free syrup is safe to enjoy and made with high-quality ingredients, including Zinc, Organic Elderberry Fruit, Echinacea root, Stevia, Vegetable Glycerin, and Elderberry and Blackberry Juice Concentrates. Start with one dose (5 ml) twice a day, and increase up to four times a day if needed. Elderberry refers to the different varieties of the Sambucus tree. The most commonly utilized is Sambucus nigra, which is known as European Elderberry, which is commonly used for cold and flu symptoms. Although the different parts of Elderberry are utilized for different purposes, the berries are typically used for influenza, infections, sciatica, headaches, dental pain, heart pain, and nerve pain. Elderberry contains a high amount of antioxidants, which can support immune system function. It contains Vitamin-C, which is commonly known for its Immune Support. Elderberry also contains various antioxidant Flavonols such as Kaempferol and Quercetin. Quercetin is commonly used as respiratory support when needed. Organic elderberries are a rich source of anthocyanins which have been studied for their immune-enhancing effects. Anthocyanins benefit the immune system by supporting cytokine production. Cytokines are messenger proteins that benefit the immune response. One study of 60 people with influenza found that those who took elderberry syrup four times per day, showed symptom improvement in two to four days, compared to the control group, which took seven to eight days to show improvements in symptoms.    Zinc glycinate, a highly bioavailable (well absorbing) form of Zinc that is bonded to a molecule of the Amino-Acid, Glycine. This allows the Zinc Molecule to remain intact during digestion, so it does not have to compete with other minerals for absorption. Zinc is an essential mineral that plays a major role in growth, reproduction, antioxidant defenses and healthy immune function.  Zinc is a critical nutrient for the immune system.  The normal, healthy development of immune cells, particularly T-lymphocytes depends upon adequate zinc status. Zinc deficiency has been shown to reduce the physical size of the thymus gland; it is here where T cells mature to become fully functional mature T-lymphocytes.  These cells are critical for a healthy immune response. Helps support normal, healthy immune function.* Provides antioxidant support which is essential to immune function.* Studies show a reduction in the severity and duration of the common cold.* Studies also show that prophylactic (preventive) use may reduce the # of colds per year, as well as reduce antibiotic usage.*   Umckaloabo is a flowering South African Native Plant that is used for its roots for medicinal purposes. Research on Umckloabo shows that it reduced Bronchitis symptoms after 7 days of treatment when it was taken within 48 hours of initial Bronchitis symptoms. Umckaloabo has also been shown to reduce pain and difficulty swallowing for individuals experiencing sore throat symptoms. It is believed that the mechanism of action for this herb, is that it may work by killing bacteria and preventing bacteria from attaching themselves to surfaces of the body, and also provide aid for the immune system.   Echinacea refers to the nine species of the herbaceous flowering plant, native to North America, commonly also known as Coneflowers. Echinacea Angustfolia is one of the most utilized species of Echinacea as traditional medicine. The root extract of Echinacea Angustfolia contains medicinal purposes to aid the immune system, help optimize blood sugar levels, and the proliferation of cancerous cells. Compared to Echinacea Purpurea, another commonly used species of Echinacea, Echinacea Angustfolia root contains a higher amount of alkylamides. Alkylamides are known to show immunostimulant, analgesic, antioxidant properties. Alklamides found in Echinacea are known to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines caused by Influenza. The Root Extract of Echinacea Angustfolia is rich in phenols and flavonoids that exhibit antioxidant properties to help protect from the harming effects of free radicals. Research on Echinacea has also been shown to increase white blood cell count, which help the body fight off infections. Which may help the body build immunity to infections.      Suggested Use: Take 1 Teaspoon (5ml), 2 times daily. Can increase up to 4 times daily when needed.                                                           LABEL
