Herbs for Sinuses and lymphatic Glands
Pippali (piper longum), flowering vine from the Piperaceae family, is closely related to black pepper. An Ayurvedic herbal supplement made with honey and ghee, it helps balance normal mucus buildup, aiding lymphatic glands, digestion and water/earth kapha imbalances in Ayurvedic medicine.
Potent like chai tea, studies show Pippali can clear mucus and Giardia in animals, supporting the body's cleansing process. Useful in winter and seasonal transitions, enjoy this centuries-old spice.
According to a clinical trail "Pippali Rasayana" can eliminate Giardia from the intestinal tract. (This trail was conducted using a different pippali rasayana - are product does contain pippali but there are other ingredients in it)
"Pippali Rasayana (PR), an Indian ayurvedic drug prepared from Palash (Butea monosperma (Lamk) Kuntze; Leguminaceae) and Pippali (Piper longum L.; Piperaceae), was administered at a dose of 1 g p.o. three times daily for a period of 15 days to patients (25 treated, 25 placebo controls) suffering from giardiasis with clinical signs and symptoms, and stools positive for trophozoites/cysts of Giardia lamblia. After 15 days of drug treatment there was a complete disappearance of G. lamblia (trophozoites/cysts) from the stools of 23 out of 25 patients. General signs and symptoms of ill health and abdominal discomfort, presence of mucus, pus cells and RBCs were significantly reduced. There was a marked improvement in the clinical and haematological profile of the patients. Spontaneous recovery in 20% cases was recorded in placebo controls." ref. 1
