Nature's Sunshine CC-A combines rose hips, chamomile, slippery elm, yarrow, capsicum and lobelia. This type of blend is commonly used for soothing support around the mouth, throat and upper digestive tissues. Slippery elm is especially valued for its mucilage, which forms a soothing coating, while chamomile and yarrow are traditional calming herbs for irritated tissues.
Capsicum and lobelia change the feel of the formula by adding circulatory and stimulant qualities. That makes CC-A more than a soothing herb blend alone. The product is best understood as a tissue-support formula rather than a general immune supplement.
What is slippery elm doing in CC-A?
Slippery elm is rich in mucilage, which forms a soothing coating on tissues. It is commonly used where comfort for the throat or upper digestive tract is wanted.
Why does CC-A include capsicum as well as soothing herbs?
Capsicum adds warmth and circulatory support. In a blend like CC-A, that can help balance the soothing herbs and give the formula a more active feel.
