SinusFree (Sinus Free) Herbal Liquid Supplement
Supports Normal Breathing
SinusFree is a spicy and pungent sinus formula, designed to support the free
flow of mucus and facilitate normal breathing. Sinus Free was developed exclusively
for Planetary Formulas by herbalist and naturopathic physician, Dr. Jill Stansbury.
Traditional Botanicals for Sinus Support
The ingredients in SinusFree reflect the botanical experience of traditional
cultures throughout the world.
- Yarrow is a hardy perennial plant that is native to Europe and Asia and
has been naturalized in North America. Its leaves, flowers and oil have been
used by herbalists since ancient times. Yarrow is strongly pungent and aromatic
and contains sesquiterpene lactones, azulene, coumarins and flavonoids.
- Thyme is indigenous to the Mediterranean region, northern Africa and parts
of Asia. It is rich in the essential oils, thymol and carvacrol, as well as
flavonoids. Thyme is a strongly aromatic kitchen spice, traditionally used
to support the normal flow of mucus and to facilitate deep breathing.
- Eyebright is a European botanical that has been used in the United States
for at least 150 years.While most people, including many herbalists, associate
eyebright with vision support, it has been traditionally used to support the
sinuses.
- Horseradish has been cultivated for about 2,000 years for its thick, fleshy
white roots, which possess an intense pungent taste. It is native to Europe,
and was brought to America by early settlers. The pungency of horseradish
is primarily due to the presence of its essential oils.
Essential Oils and Flavonoids
The aromatic qualities of the herbs used in Sinus Free come from their essential
oils. Essential oils are often used in the form of teas, steams and inhalers
as a way to liquefy mucus secretions, thereby promoting their free flow. The
essential oils also evaporate readily and can be breathed in.When they come
in contact with nasal membranes, they have a gentle stimulating effect that
supports healthy mucosa and promotes circulation of mucus.
The effects of these herbs are similar to what we commonly experience when eating
horseradish or drinking a hot cup of ginger tea - within minutes, mucus begins
to flow freely and breathing is deeper. Yarrow, thyme and eyebright are also
rich in flavonoids, which help to stabilize mast cells and thereby reduce the
release of histamines. Flavonoids are an important part of a sinus support program.
