"Clear Sinus and Ear" - Sinus Problems Message Board

Chrislynn · 11-08-2003, 02:05 PM

Has anyone tried this? My mom just bought it for me today. It is an herbal supplement that contains 12 different herbs- Pueraria Root, Angelica Root, Peony Root, Magnolia Flower, Platycodon Root, Coix Seed, Ginger Root, Perillia Leaf, Siler Root, Scutellaria Root, Cinnamon Bark and Licorice Root.

It is supposed to help clear sinus congestion, sinus, ear pressure and pain along with reducing swelling in the ear and sinuses. My sinuses are all messed up so I thought I would give it a try.

If anyone else has used this with good results, please let me know.
Thanks

Have you tried this yet and has it worked? Also where did you find it?

Is this condition re-occuring? or just occasional.

If it is chronic it could be due to food allerigies, (particularly dairy products).
Exposure to irritant fumes, or simple hay fever.

I have never heard of the product you mentioned, but this should help.

Quericitin with Bromelain-
This combination increases immunity to allergens.

Three firms make a specific nutrient combo for natural decongestant action
Nature's Way---"Fenu-Thyme"
Terra Max---"PSI"
Enzymatic Therapy---"Sinus Check"

Also Acidophilus if you have been taking antibiotics.

Nature's Sunshine ---- "ALJ" Which is a combination of
Boneset, Horseradish, Mullein, Fennel and Fenugreek.

Hi Chrislynn,
I haven't wrote you in awhile so I thought I would tell you my thoughts.

I am not a big fan of herbal remedies because each may come from a different part of the plant and produce different results. And, particularly when you combine 12 different herbs. It's sorta like the root of vegatables have a much different nutritional value than the tops-- beets and beet greens, turnips and turnip greens are just 2 that come to mind.
There is basically no regulation in this field of Alternative Medicine. I know it has a place when used by an Herblist that is trained and really knows what they are doing and I have seen some results that have been amazing.

If you use this mixture of herbs with some degree of success then when you need it in the future the results may not be repeatable or consistant with the last batch of 12 because the herbs may have been grown in a different part of the country or world.

You should have tried the Homeopathic remedies I suggested months ago???

God Bless---Harry
