How Ayurvedic Lozenges and Sprays Work
Ayurvedic immunity lozenges are dissolvable tablets or chewable pastilles designed to support throat comfort while strengthening your body’s natural defences. Similarly, herbal sprays offer quick, on-the-go support for the upper respiratory tract. Both are popular with travellers, students, and anyone looking for convenient daily immune care.
These formulations combine traditional Ayurvedic herbs with modern delivery formats. Common ingredients include:
- Tulsi (Holy Basil): Tulsi is prized for its ability to reduce inflammation and fight bacteria and viruses. It supports respiratory health by soothing irritated mucous membranes and helps modulate the immune response, making it easier for your body to defend against infections.
- Liquorice (Yashtimadhu): Liquorice root contains natural compounds that calm throat irritation and work as an expectorant to clear mucus. It also has anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects, supporting natural immune defences and aiding in respiratory wellness.
- Turmeric: Widely known for its active compound curcumin, turmeric has strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It helps regulate immune cell activity and reduces inflammation, which can be particularly helpful in respiratory tract infections.
- Ginger: Ginger has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that help fight infection and promote healthy digestion. It also helps reduce swelling and discomfort in the throat, making it a valuable component in immune-supportive lozenges and sprays.
- Clove: Clove contains eugenol, a compound with analgesic and antimicrobial effects. It provides mild numbing relief in the throat and works to inhibit the growth of certain bacteria and viruses.
- Honey: Honey is a natural antimicrobial agent that also soothes the throat by coating irritated tissues. It supports mucosal immunity and contributes to the pleasant taste of many herbal lozenges.
Ayurvedic lozenges and sprays can be used regularly or at the first sign of throat discomfort or fatigue, especially during travel or high-stress times.
