Cuban pediatricians apply natural medicine to respiratory diseases

 HAVANA, Cuba, Aug 13 (ACN) For the treatment of respiratory diseases, the Juan Manuel Marquez Pediatric Hospital in Havana is using the natural medicine Grintus, produced and donated by the Italian natural pharmaceutical company Aboca, in alliance with the local development project Flora, la botica de la abuela (Grandma's Apothecary).

According to Laritza Moya, head of Respiratory Services of the medical institution, the children with respiratory diseases and bronchial asthma to whom the syrup is administered have achieved a clinical improvement when checked by outpatients.

In most cases, the frequent cough disappeared, since the phytopharmaceutical acts both in the dry cough, counteracting the inflammation of the mucosa, and in the mucus phase, favoring its hydration and elimination from the upper respiratory tract, the pediatrician explained.

Moya, who is also a specialist in Natural Medicine, explained that the medicine has a protective, soothing and physiological anti-inflammatory action, as a result of antioxidant action mechanisms.

Grintus is composed of poliresin, a vegetable complex, and honey, contains a 100 % biodegradable formula with ingredients from organic agriculture, and is used in the midst of a complex scenario of medicine deficit due to the crisis caused by the pandemic and the intensification of unilateral coercive measures against Cuba, she pointed out.

Also, Melilax is used in emergency services to correct constipation in infants on strict diets due to asthma and allergies, because the product frees the intestine, reduces discomfort, irritation and inflammation; it is made of nectar honeys, with aloe fractions, Moya added.

Aboca Group stands out in the world for promoting people's well-being and quality of life, with 45 years of experience in the search for and development of the therapeutic potential of natural substances.
