Pesky Cough? Take the HERBALmax Flu, Cold & Cough Formula
The childhood disease known as whooping cough is hitting adults. Whooping cough starts out with typical cold symptoms but turns into a chronic, spastic cough which can last for months. Besides young people, individuals most susceptible to whooping cough are older persons whose vaccinations may be losing their effectiveness.
(PRWEB) February 7, 2005 -- With flu season underway, the award winning
Chinese Herbal Pharmacologist, Doctor Lihua Zhang (www.herbal-max.com),
announces the availability of an effective, maximum strength herbal product to
combat Flu and Cough. It is appropriately called HERBALmax™ Flu, Cold &
Cough formula. The herbs used in the formula have been carefully selected from
tens of thousands of Chinese herbs for their safety; the formula can be taken by
all ages. Some herbs in the formula were used to stop the SARS outbreak in late
2002 and early 2003 in China. Most importantly, your cough usually can be
stopped as soon as 1-4 days after you take the formula.
The success of
the formula is due to two factors:
1) Dr. Zhang’s extensive knowledge and
formulation of the product backed by 23 years of herbal research and clinical
experience; and
2) The use of concentrates of Chinese herbs known for their
effective antibacterial and antiviral properties.
HERBALmax™ Flu, Cold
& Cough formula has been shown in clinical studies to significantly shorten
the duration of flu and cough. From September 2002 to April 2003, a series of 83
patients reporting symptoms of flu and cough were studied. Results showed that
the Flu, Cold & Cough formula appeared to aid recovery from flu and cough
symptoms, typically within 1 to 4 days.
Influenza (the flu) is
characterized by the abrupt onset of upper respiratory symptoms such as fever,
cough, headache, body aches and various nasal symptoms. The fever typically
lasts three to five days, but it can persist up to a week or more, and cough is
often the last symptom remaining at the end of the acute illness. Sometimes, a
post-viral cough may persist for up to eight weeks. Influenza is also known to
be a deadly disease that can disguise itself in variety of different forms. Flu
and its complications commonly known as bronchitis and pneumonia was the seventh
leading cause of death in the USA in 1999 and 2000. The flu and cough are
respiratory illnesses caused by different viruses with similar symptoms. People
65+ years and children 6-23 months of age, pregnant women, and people with
chronic medical conditions are at high risk of complications from
influenza.
Antibiotics treat bacteria and are usually not effective for
treating viruses like influenza and its accompanying cough. Some of the drugs
available for flu only treats certain viruses, and each flu is caused by
different viruses. One such drug, Tamiflu (oseltamivir), can only be taken
within 2 days of first signs of symptoms. It cannot be taken by infants less
than one year old and may cause side effects. Recently, The Lancet, a British
medical journal, published a study of children with influenza treated with
oseltamivir. The research, conducted by an international team of researchers,
showed that nearly 20% of patients treated with the drug produced mutant
drug-resistant viruses as soon as four days after treatment.
Because
HERBALmax™ Flu, Cold & Cough formula can very quickly stop the flu and cough
in their initial stages, it is a good product to keep on hand to protect against
the flu. The formula is also very strong in fighting flu and cough at their
peak. After taking this formula, most people feel better the next
day.
