Making an Herbal Remedy with Jackie (Throat Lozenge)

[JosephLayde]

I feel your choice of herbs are not well selected, because of high risks. Thyme for example; Women who are pregnant should not drink thyme tea, although small amounts of thyme used in cooking do not cause side effects. Do not take thyme as a medicine if you have a duodenal ulcer or if you have thyroid disease as it can worsen. Also, myrrh, causes "red" symptoms, like fever, blistering, hot flashes, or nervous tension. Not recommended while pregnant and it may cause nausea or vomiting in excess.

I would use Slippery Elm Bark (bark) - relieves inflammation and irritation in the throat and urinary tract Echinacea Angustifolia Root (root) - anti-bacterial + blood cleanser Echinacea Purpurea Root (root) - anti-bacterial + blood cleanser Echinacea Purpurea Herb (flower) - anti-bacterial + blood cleanser Peppermint Leaf (leaf) - expectorant decongestant and mild pain reliever Eucalyptus Leaf (leaf) - relieves congestion Ginger Root (root) - pain relieving antiseptic &antioxidant

[JosephLayde]

Goldenseal Root (root) - antiseptic and immune stimulant Licorice Root (root) - anti-viral, chest and throat soother Fenugreek Seed Powder (seed) - expectorant Yarrow Leaf and Flower (leaf+flower) - reduces fevers and inflammation Avoid boiling tea, instead add simmering water to a cup of the material instead of boiling directly.

Also, use PUREFRUIT™ (monkfruit(dot)org) "Monk Fruit" for people who are diabetic.

[GCNM07]

@boysselle You can put the lozenges in a food dehydrator to harden.

What is the shelve life of these lozenges?

[GCNM07]

These lozenges can last up to a year if kept in an air tight container in a dry, cool place
