St Francis Herb Farm - Virafect -100 Millitre(s) - NPN: 80054907
Tackles viral infections related to cold and flu
Especially if experiencing symptoms of fever/headache
Contains Andrographis PLUS 6 other powerful, specifically antiviral herbs
Who It’s For: Children and Adults 2 years of age and older
Use For:
- Viral respiratory infections that need more healing punch than just echinacea
- Sore throat and fever that accompany upper respiratory infections of a viral nature
How It Works: This formula is based on the powerful infection-fighting properties of andrographis PLUS six antiseptic, immune-enhancing herbs.
Also featured prominently is lomatium, a highly potent antiviral herb used by the Washoe tribe in Nevada to dramatically lower mortality during the great flu pandemic of 1917-18.
The benefits of these two herbs escalate in combination with the other herbs in this formula. Echinacea and holy basil are both anti-infective and have an impressively long history of use for colds, fever, and influenza. Wild indigo, while an infection fighter in its own right, also makes echinacea work better.
