Active Ingredients 26 Science
The formula contains several plant-based ingredients along with zinc in the form of zinc gluconate, a mild and easily absorbed variant that is gentle on the child's stomach. Olive leaf extract provides natural antioxidants, with oleuropein being one of the active components with a long tradition of use. Elderberry is a well-established ingredient in children's products and contributes naturally occurring vitamin C. Grindelia robusta, a classic medicinal plant, supplies unique phytochemicals traditionally used to support respiratory function. St John's Wort is added in balanced amounts to suit younger children, and the larch extract, rich in arabinogalactan, is a mild, natural fibre well tolerated by children.
