Andrographis for the immune system
...this herb is a immune-boosting companion on the way to the approaching winter!
The exotic medicinal plant “Andrographis” – also called “Kalmegh” – is enjoying increasing popularity in our latitudes.
As late summer draws to a close, the animals are driven down from the alpine pastures, wisps of fog drift across the countryside in the morning, and summer sandals disappear into the top of the shoe closet, our bodies become more sensitive to temperature fluctuations. It's cool in the morning, but during the day – especially this year – it's still quite warm. Sore throats or earaches, a stuffy nose, or a "frog in the throat" can easily occur. The immune system is challenged!
The herb Andrographis is a popular home remedy for strengthening the immune system. It has proven helpful for all types of infections. Therefore, it is often packed in travel medicine kits. It is also a traditional remedy for treating traveler's diarrhea, not only in Asia.
