GIFTS OF THE HERBS & MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS:

—Reishi (Ganoderma oregonense)
•Role in Influenza Support: Reishi enhances immune system function, supports respiratory health, and reduces inflammation, making it ideal for preventing and recovering from viral infections. It helps modulate immune response and minimize cytokine storms associated with severe flu cases.
•Active Constituents: Polysaccharides (beta-glucans): Immune-modulating; Triterpenoids: Anti-inflammatory and antiviral; Sterols: Support immune health; Ganoderic acids: Antiviral and antioxidant.
•Herbal Actions: Adaptogenic, Immunomodulatory, Anti-inflammatory, Antiviral

—Agarikon (Fomitopsis officinalis)
•Role in Influenza Support: Agarikon is one of the most powerful antiviral fungi, with many extensive research/laboratory studies showing it exhibits highly effective activity against both Influenza A and B strains, and the H5N1 virus (commonly known as avian influenza). It helps combat respiratory infections by reducing viral replication and inflammation while strengthening immune defenses.
•Active Constituents: Polysaccharides: Enhance immune function; Lanostane triterpenoids: Antiviral and antibacterial; Ergosterol derivatives: Immune-boosting.
•Herbal Actions: Antiviral, Antibacterial, Immune-enhancing, Anti-inflammatory

—Usnea (Usnea spp.)
•Role in Influenza Support: Usnea fights both viral and bacterial respiratory infections, making it wonderfully effective for preventing secondary infections like bacterial pneumonia. It also soothes and protects mucous membranes.
•Active Constituents: Usnic acid: Antimicrobial and antiviral; Lichen polysaccharides: Immune-modulating; Phenolic acids: Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.
•Herbal Actions: Antiviral, Antibacterial, Antimicrobial, Demulcent

—Baikal Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis)
•Role in Influenza Support: Baikal Skullcap reduces inflammation and fever while providing antiviral and respiratory support. It helps protect the lungs and reduce oxidative stress caused by viral infections.
•Active Constituents: Baicalin and baicalein: Antiviral and anti-inflammatory flavonoids; Wogonin: Immune-modulating; Polysaccharides: Support immune function.
•Herbal Actions: Anti-inflammatory, Antiviral, Antioxidant, Antipyretic

—Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra)
•Role in Influenza Support: Licorice soothes inflamed mucous membranes, supports immune response, and acts as a mild antiviral to inhibit viral replication.
•Active Constituents: Glycyrrhizin: Antiviral and anti-inflammatory; Flavonoids: Antioxidant and immune-modulating; Polysaccharides: Support immune health.
•Herbal Actions: Antiviral, Demulcent, Anti-inflammatory, Immune-enhancing

—Osha Root (Ligusticum porteri)
•Role in Influenza Support: Osha root is a potent respiratory herb that helps clear deep-seated congestion, ease coughs, and reduce inflammation in the lungs and airways. It also supports immune function and provides antimicrobial activity, increasing the synergy of the Formula in terms of combating respiratory infections during the flu. Likewise, Osha's other name, 'Bear Root', gives us beautiful insight into the healing willingness of this powerful gift. Osha was so named because bears have been observed digging up and chewing the root, seemingly to support their respiratory health and immune system. Traditionally, folks living in high-altitude regions, most notably in the Rockies where Osha grows, would wild harvest the root for its ability to open & clear the airways, dramatically enhancing oxygen intake. It was often chewed fresh during high-altitude expeditions, such as hunting trips, to help overcome the challenges of thin air and respiratory strain.
•Active Constituents: Z-ligustilide: Anti-inflammatory; Coumarins: Antiviral and antimicrobial; Polyacetylenes: Antimicrobial and warming.
•Herbal Actions: Antiviral, Expectorant, Antimicrobial, Warming

—Lomatium Root (Lomatium dissectum)
•Role in Influenza Support: Lomatium is a broad-spectrum antiviral that supports lung health and reduces cough. Historically, it was used to prevent illness & death during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, particularly by Native American communities, for its potent antiviral and lung-supportive properties.
•Active Constituents: Furanocoumarins: Antiviral and immune-enhancing; Polyacetylenes: Antimicrobial; Essential oils: Respiratory support.
•Herbal Actions: Antiviral, Expectorant, Immune-enhancing, Antimicrobial

—Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale)
