Description

Super Sinus is uniquely formulated to moisten the nose and sinuses while addressing symptoms associated with sinus infections and chronic sinusitis.

Most herbal or over the counter remedies treat the sinuses by drying phlegm. This works well if the sinuses are moist to begin with.

However, for people who live or work in a dry environment, this serves only to dry what little phlegm exists in already dry nasal passageways. This dried phlegm is often the cause of sinus pressure, headache and congestion. Proper treatment is to moisten dryness, increase circulation in the sinus cavities and gently transform phlegm.

The difference between transforming phlegm and drying phlegm is subtle but important. Herbs which transform phlegm are gentler on the body. They are often seeds which are generally oily and moistening (and thus life-giving). Once moist, the dried phlegm loosens and thereby has an avenue through which to leave the body.
