Ascof Save the Day!

It's the season to be jolly, fa la la la la, la la la...

Christmas is almost here no and everyone is so excited. I have felt the cold December breeze as early as the last week of November and so expect the wind will be cooler as December month goes by. Christmas is the season to be jolly but it's also the season of cough and colds.

Matthew just caught colds a week ago followed by cough. That give him uncomfortable feeling so being a Natural Mom, I know what can save the day.

Choose Natural, Choose Ascof Lagundi

Hi Natural Mommies! Once again, I'm proud to write about being a Natural Mom. 

I have been an avid user of natural medicines. I used concoction of guava leaves and garlic cloves to cure yeast infection, oregano leaves for colds, serpentina for infection and many other herbal medicines. They are effective and very natural. We used them as first aid medicine at home. Why not? My husband plant them in empty cans at home. No pesticide residues, no side effects and even saves us money.

Along with colds, cough is also a common sickness anyone can easily have nowadays. One of the famous herbal plant being used in Philippines against cough is Lagundi. Its efficacy to ease respiratory complaints has been verified already by Department of Health. Lagundi is clinically proven in treating cough, asthma symptoms and other respiratory problems like chronic bronchitis and pharyngitis. It is also known to have an analgesic effect that helps lessen pain and discomfort. Studies also showed that Lagundi contains chrysoplenol D, a smooth muscle relaxant with anti histamine properties. In addition, it has been clinically verified to inhibit the the release of leukotrienes making it effective to control asthma.

I'm trying to find this plant so we could plant it at home but I can't find one. Good thing it is readily available in the market with a much affordable price as compared to leading brands of synthetic cough medicines. Ascof Lagundi is made from All-natural Lagundi leaves. It is commercially available in Ponkan, Menthol and Strawberry-flavored 60-ml and 120-ml syrup variants, and also comes in 300-mg and Forte 600-mg tablets.

Ponkan and Methol-Flavored 120 ml syrup

The bottles are well-sealed and it comes with measuring cups too.

This is the first time I have seen a medicine bottle sealed this way.

Ascof Forte Methol-flavored Syrup SUGAR FREE (600mg/ml) for adults and older kids (13 years old up) 

Ascof Ponkan-Flavored syrup (300 mg/5 ml) for younger kids (2-12 years old)

Ascof Lagundi's effectiveness has been proven that is why more doctors are already prescribing this not only for cough but also to aid in the treatment of asthma. 

So mommies it's never too late to go natural. Begin it now by using Ascof Lagundi Syrup and Tablets. 

Choose naturals, choose Ascof Lagundi!

First Natural Mom of the Week

When it rain, it pours!

After MCP have chosen my entry as their November Fanpage contest winner, here comes Natural Mom by Ascof.

I’m very please to share that Natural Mom by Ascof had chosen Momaye to be their First Natural Mom of the week.

Yes, I am a Natural Mom. We have many herbal plants in our mini garden.

Serpentina

Cat Whisker or "Balbas Pusa"

Oregano

We usually take these first before taking any prescribed medicine. Oregano is very helpful with us since we have a baby. Since he is 1-day old we are giving it to him. As old folks said, aside from its use for colds, it is very good to remove the "taon" in babies. We also have Serpentina which has an antibiotic property. This is very bitter (even bitter than brood coffee) that even its smallest leaf you can't chew. What we do is we blanch it with boiled water then mix with tea or just water. Serpetina is also good in removing lumps and nodes in the body. Another herbal plant we have is the Cat's Whisker or "Balbas Pusa". You can take is as a tea and is good in removing gall and kidney stones.

There you go. These are just some of the plants we have at home. My husband likes to plant even we do not have a spaceful garden. He will just plant them in empty milk cans and we also buy pots.

And for cough we use Lagundi Syrup and Capsule from Ascof, which are much cheaper as compared to their synthetic counterparts (carbocisteine). I recently bought capsule from Mercury Drugs and is almost half the price of leading brand carbocisteine capsule. My husband took it and in just 2 days he was relieved from coughing.

Again thank you Natural Mom by Ascof for choosing me as your First Natural Mom of the Week.
