🌿 **Powerful Flu-Fighting Essential Oil Blend** 🌿

Hearing about the flu spreading? This synergistic blend of **Melaleuca (Tea Tree)**, **Rosalina (Lavender Tea Tree)**, **Lemon**, **Thyme**, **Oregano**, **Hyssop**, **Bay Laurel**, and **Turmeric** oils help support your body against viral invaders and ease those pesky symptoms!

Here's how they team up:

- **Melaleuca (Tea Tree)** & **Oregano** & **Thyme**: VERY Potent antiviral and antibacterial powerhouses – studies show they can inhibit influenza virus replication and reduce infectivity.
- **Rosalina**: A gentle respiratory champion (rich in linalool & 1,8-cineole), soothing congestion and supporting clear breathing, especially great for colds/flu.
- **Lemon**: Immune-boosting and detoxifying, with cleansing antiviral properties.
- **Hyssop** & **Bay Laurel (Laurel Leaf)**: Traditional respiratory allies with VERY strong antiviral effects, helping clear mucus and fight infections.
- **Turmeric**: Anti-inflammatory compounds that may block viral pathways and ease flu-related inflammation.

Blended together, these oils create a natural shield: antiviral action to target the virus, decongestant relief for stuffy noses/coughs, and immune support to help shorten symptoms.

**Safe Use Tips**:
- Diffuse 4-6 drops per 100 ml water in your diffuser for airborne support to reduce symptoms in nasal cavities and lungs
- For topical: Dilute 3-5 drops blend in 1 tsp carrier oil (like coconut) and apply to chest/feet. Put sock over feet.
- Steam inhalation: 2-3 drops in a bowl of hot water, inhale under a towel. ( avoiding eyes)
- Always dilute! Patch test first. Not for internal use. Consult a doctor for medical advice, if pregnant, nursing, or for kids. We have gentle formulas for kids as well!

Elderberry Benefits
1. May Reduce Cold & Flu Symptoms
Studies shoe elderberry may shorten the duration of cold or flu symptoms by about 1–4 days when taken early. It also helps reduce nasal congestion, cough, sore throat, and fatigue.

2. Elderberry Supports Immune Response
Elderberries contain flavonoids and anthocyanins, antioxidants that may help support immune cell activity.
These compounds encourage the body’s natural defense mechanisms.

3. Antiviral Effects
Lab studies show elderberry extracts interferes with how certain viruses (*including influenza strains) attach to cells.

4. Anti-Inflammatory & Antioxidant Properties
Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress, which can worsen symptoms during illness.

Our concentrated Elderberry drops taste delicious alone, but I often recommend adding them to our local raw honey for reducing cough & soothing sore throats!

You can also add our Mullein garlic drops for a powerful antiviral punch. Mullein also loosen mucus & soothes irritation in the lungs

Mullein has a long history of use for respiratory issues, including dry or irritating coughs, bronchitis, asthma, and congestion. Herbalists value it for its demulcent (soothing) and expectorant properties, attributed to compounds like mucilage (which coats irritated mucous membranes) and saponins (which may help loosen mucus).

🌿historical and folk medicine document its use for cough relief dating back centuries & studies support potential mechanisms:
- Anti-inflammatory effects from flavonoids and iridoids.
- Antimicrobial activity against some respiratory pathogens.
- Antiviral properties in test-tube studies (e.g., against influenza).
