Long-Term Benefits
While many of the herbs in AllerPhase are directed towards supporting a healthy immune response to seasonal respiratory discomforts, AllerPhase also supports overall general immune system function. Paeonia and Pseudostellaria have been shown to promote liver and lung function to support proper, overall immune function. These herbs are likely to be partly responsible for helping to regulate the potential for future episodes of seasonal respiratory discomforts.
Safety
The herbs in AllerPhase have a long history of safe use in Traditional Chinese healing practices for seasonal respiratory discomforts. AllerPhase is a non-drowsy formula that doesn't cause fatigue or fuzzy thinking. And since AllerPhase is not a CNS stimulant the formula does not cause the wired sensation typical of certain OTC preparations.
