Umcka Cold+Flu Multi-Action Non-Drowsy, Berry Flavored, 20 Chewables

This is my go-to now when I have a cold. It minimizes the symptoms and shortens the duration of the cold. I have less body aches, sore throat, congestion, and coughing. I love this stuff.

Works well, take it at night for a sore throat, feel better by morning.

I really didn’t think this would work, but I was pleasantly surprised! It works so well and it tastes amazing!

I tried both Umcka Cold and Flu & the plain Umcka and didn’t notice a remarkable difference in either product. Both had similar results for us. There’s some good research out there about umcka. In addition to other natural ways of reducing the severity and length of colds and flu for my family, I’ve started incorporating this product at the first signs of illness. I started with a chewable, because it is usually my kids that get sick. My son likes the taste of these. They can be pricey when you consider how quickly you’ll go through a box taking it to to 4 times a day. I purchased the same product in a liquid form from another brand: Integrative Therapeutics - V Clear EPs 7630. I’m kind of doing a comparison right now, but I can control the serving size better with the liquid for my younger child, rather than splitting a chewable tablet. As to whether or not this works, this is my third time using it during an illness, and it does seem to work. It’s not a magical thing, but illnesses seem to peak and turn around more quickly. I also am a hard-core believer in elderberry for anything that is suspected viral. Because we do so many other things at the first sign of illness, it’s sometimes hard to know if one thing is working more effectively than others. However, I have found that cutting out dairy and sugar altogether (or at the first sign of sickness), starting this Umcka, Sambucus, echinacea, vitamin C, and immune supporting essential oils, and we just do not seem to get a sick as other people do with the same bug.

Great product at a great price
