RESPIRATORY TRACT DISORDERS: why do they get worse in winter?

RESPIRATORY TRACT DISORDERS: why do they get worse in winter?

Winter's cold air is usually drier, therefore it can narrow the airways and irritate the lungs, causing difficulty breathing.

Furthermore, it can also disrupt the layer of moisture in our lower airways by causing it to evaporate faster than normal, leading to irritation and weakened protection. Besides, people tend to spend more time indoors, closer to each other and with a higher risk of transmitting viruses.

Alma solutions include a family of 4 food supplements suitable to both ease the symptoms and prevent the most common respiratory tract disorders, such as sore throat and cough.

They are based on a unique combination of natural extracts (Star anise, Propolis and prickly pear) able to reduce inflammation and exert a mucoadhesive activity, protecting the area from mechanical and chemical stress while also imparting a selective anti-microbial activity on the oral cave, reducing pathogenic microorganisms without affecting the beneficial flora:
