Fluimucil is suggested for the treatment of respiratory diseases characterized by increased production of thick and sticky mucus. as:
- inflammation of the bronchi
- pathology of the pulmonary alveoli
- cystic fibrosis
- bronchial dilations
in 30 bags that contain:
- N-acetylcysteine
- aspartame
- orange aroma
- sorbitol
Let's examine the ingredients in descending order of quantity on the label and they will be taken with these sachets.
N-acetylcysteine (it is present with 300mg in 1 sachet) is a compound of acetylated cysteine used for a long time as an adjuvant in bronchitis in the role of fluidifying agent and expectorant of excessive mucus as well as to combat the toxicity of some components such as doxorubicin, paracetamol, acute respiratory distress syndrome. It is included in many formulas of food supplements for its established role as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.
Aspartame is one of the most widespread arificial sweeteners and on which research has focused to establish the risks associated with the consumption of this product. In the European Union it is labelled as E 951 and is considered safe for human health by the Efsa (European Food Safety Authority). A contraindication may be a laxative effect if ingested in quantity. It has a sweetening power about 180/200 times higher than sugar.
Aroma is a flavouring chemical component.
Sorbitol is an artificial sweetener with a sweetening power of about 60% of sugar and a caloric power of about 40% less than sugar. It is obtained industrially by a chemical process from glucose. It also has other interesting qualities such as anti-mould, anti-yeast and preservative.
Comment
The ingredients are carefully chosen and targeted to the most common winter sicknesses such as colds, coughs. In particular N-acetylcysteine plays the primary role as a fluidifying agent.I am surprised to see in third place, in order of quantity, Aroma, pure chemistry that I hope can be replaced with a natural flavouring.
After 2 days of intake (1 sachet before sleep at night) I have already noticed a clear improvement and complete healing occurred after 4/5 days.
Conclusion
Great product, but I'd prefer without Aroma.
