Immunostimulator Api-phytotherapy for the Treatment of Upper Respiratory Tract Infection and Chronic Bronchitis

Throughout history, respiratory tract infections due to viruses, especially influenza viruses, continue to cause serious diseases, up to death, all over the world, as a result of the inability to develop effective treatment methods or vaccines. Due to changes in the antigenic structures of respiratory viruses, especially RNA viruses, there are difficulties in the production of effective vaccines. The World Health Organization estimates 150,000 hospitalizations and 30,000 to 40,000 deaths due to the flu epidemic in the United States alone, with a total of 25 to 50 million cases each year. Respiratory viruses are a major cause of influenza-like illness symptoms in children and adults, causing significant illness and death each year. Various herbal remedies have been used for the prevention and treatment of viral respiratory diseases in many parts of the world. Among those found to be effective are propolis, licorice root, ginger, black cumin, carob, but there is also scientific evidence for the effectiveness of several complementary treatments for the common cold. For example, oral zinc intake can reduce the severity of the common cold. Regular intake of vitamin C supplements can reduce the duration and severity of viral infections. Various herbs are widely used as medicine to clear viral respiratory infections. Influenza control and treatment mainly depend on chemical or biochemical agents isolated from plants. These agents include various polyphenols, flavonoids, saponins, glucosides, and alkaloids. We added such plants, propolis, and licorice honey to the content of bronxbal paste, which is a combination of supportive therapy, bronchial dilator, immunomodulator, mucolytic, and born antiviral and antibacterial effects during coronavirus and other bacterial-virus-caused pneumonia. We prepared it as a paste and used it in patients who do not have allergies. The plant and bee products in the bronxbal content we have prepared are natural pastes to solve problems that need ongoing rehabilitation, such as coronavirus pneumonia and chronic bronchitis caused by other viruses and bacteria, or Covid-19.
