ALJ (100 caps)
- Vendor: Nature's Sunshine Products
- Type: Herbal Combination
Nature's Sunshine ALJ® (100 caps) helps balance the natural eliminative functions of the respiratory system. It supports healthy lung function and helps support the body during seasonal changes. It also helps promote respiratory tissue health.
Here’s how. Fenugreek and mullein contain mucilage, a substance that causes the herbs to swell in water. This creates a viscous, fibrous substance that provides a soothing effect. Fennel has traditionally been used as a cleansing herb and is often used after eating. Indians used boneset during seasonal times when the body needed extra nutritional support. Horseradish has a stimulating effect on the respiratory system, which you can easily discover for yourself by eating a small amount of the freshly grated herb.
Airborne particles are everywhere. When particles enter the respiratory system via the nose or the mouth, the body turns on its cleansing mechanisms, and the immune system is put on active duty.
Herbal nourishment supports a healthy respiratory system that can be challenged by inhaled irritants.Allergic reactions often stem from the inability of the liver to neutralize certain substances that build up within the body and eventually trigger an immune reaction. A substance that the immune system recognizes as foreign to the body is often referred to as an allergen.
Nature's Sunshine AL-J is an excellent respiratory formula for relieving sinus and upper respiratory congestion associated with allergies. Mullein is commonly associated with relief of respiratory problems. It contains mucilaginous substances which protect mucous membranes and prevent them from absorbing toxins. The cooling, soothing properties of mucilage lubricates tissues, reduces inflammation, and enhances healing.
