Manage Respiratory Tract Infections by Boosting Immune
System with Herbs When boosting immune functions there are two approaches to consider:
The use of diaphoretic herbs (sweat inducing) in acute infections is especially indicated in association with chills and fevers. Mentha, Achillea, Sambucus and Zingier (ginger) combine well in a diaphoretic tea. These herbs can also be administered in extract form in a dose of five to fifteen mls of the formula in hot water. When the acute infection has subsided, the previous “prophylactic” formula should be resumed in order to aid recovery and maintain optimal immune function. Withania, a highly regarded and well researched Ayervedic tonic herb will also help to restore health during convalescence. Alex Strande, N.D., Ph.D., is a naturopath and a microbiologist.
