Soothing relief to itchy/dry throat

5

I am a person who gets throat infection very often and needs anti biotics to heal it. Too much antibiotics are bad for the body and I wanted to reduce the intake and tried using the berry flavoured Ricola whenever the itchy or dry throat starts which are normally my symptom that teh infection will follow. It stops the infection then and there and I dont have to take anti biotics. Ricola is extremely effective and works well. And I would definitely recommend this product.

Natural cough drop with great taste

5

I like that the Ricola cough drops are a super natural way to ease colds symptoms. When I'm sick, the last thing I want to put into my body is a whole bunch of chemicals and fillers. Ricola offers natural relief. All the Ricola cough drops I've tried offer quick relief. I usually take cough drops when I'm having trouble sleeping, or when I'm at work and don't want to sound like I'm hacking up a lung. Ricola gets the job done without a lot of chemicals and fake sweeteners. I particularly like the mixed berry flavor because it tastes good. It had more of a natural taste and does not have that cloying, super sweet, nasty medicine taste of other brands of cough drops.

Ricola Is #1

4

This product tops many others on the market. they have a more natural taste. I love to carry some in my pocketbook as they taste great even as a breathe cleaner. Very pleasant to your breathe. Even my husband enjoys using them as they are not too harsh tasting and don't give off that smell that you have a cold and cough. They also come in many great other flavors as well. Try a package today for yourself and see the difference. I know you too will find these very enjoyable. Chest Congestion Relief these are great even when you just have a "tickle" in your throat.

Ricola Mixed Berry Drops: Good Vitamin C Supplement

3

Treatment for coughs and sore throats usually involves drugs but there are some products that take a different approach. Some products bypass the chemical compounds and instead work to boost the immune system and one such product is **Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C**. **Medicine Commentary:** Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C use raspberries, bilberries, black currants, and Swiss alpine herbs to achieve their taste. The flavor of these drops is very pleasant and candy- like, making them very easy to take. Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C are different from other drops in that they contain no active ingredients. They instead contain natural herbs and flavors, along with vitamin C- a nutrient that has been linked to a stronger immune system. Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C taste great and since they contain no drugs, you can consume as many as you like. As for their effectiveness, well, don't take a product like this thinking it is an actual cough drop because it isn't. Yes, you will experience some soothing of the throat and this can help to lessen coughing a little. But a really bad cough will likely not improve at all with a product such as this. Its real use is as a vitamin C and herbal supplement. ** ** **Bottom Line Viewpoint:** Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C make a good option for those who are concerned about Vitamin C intake and feel they could use a supplement. This added vitamin C and the herbal components of this medicine can make a difference in immune system resistance and can indirectly help keep coughing and other problems under control. Cough Suppression The soothing action can help lessen coughing at least a little

Ricola vitamin C drops are like candy.

Ricola Mixed Berry Vitamin C drops are like candy. Sweet, delicious, vitamin filled candy! In the winter, I always feel like I could use a little extra vitamin C. I don't like to take the vitamin C vitamin pills because they seem to give me indigestion. I don't like the chewable vitamins because they're much, much too sour. I discovered vitamin C "Candy" a few years ago, and started sucking on those while I worked. They all tasted just fine, nothing particularly amazing, but good enough to eat throughout the day. One day a co-worker brought in some of these for me. She knew I ate Vitamin C drops a lot, and she spotted them in a drug store and decided to pick them up for me. After one, I was intrigued. After 2, I was hooked. No other drops for me, please, it's these all the way! The Ricola Natural Mixed Berry Supplement Drops with Vitamin C don't have that weird, almost gritty after taste that most vitamin C drops seem to have. They're not too sour or anything like that. Eating one is very much like eating a piece of mixed berry candy. You can't even tell it's a vitamin drop at all. I have to watch myself of I'll eat too many. I don't know if you can have too much vitamin C, but if you can, this would be a good way to get it. I didn't get sick at all last winter, and I attibute it to these.

Easy way to get a dose of Vitamin C

3

I do like that Ricola is doing something fresh with it's brand by offering a Vitamin C supplement in a hard drop. The flavor is pleasant enough although I do notice a slight aftertaste with it. It's 28 calories per drop and they recommend you to take at least 2 to 8 as needed. It provides 60 mg of Vitamin C or 100% as labeled on the back of the packaging. This is good throat refresher or just to have on hand if you have allergies. It is easier for one to take a swallowable pill form of Vitamin C instead of having to wait, but I do like having another option.

Tastes good and I'm getting my Vitamin C daily

4

I thought these were cough drops when I first bought them. I thought the mixed berry flavor would taste good when I was sick and had a cough. Upon closer inspection though I realized this is a Vitamin C supplement and not a cough drop. I decided to take one every day. It tastes pretty good and not very "cough droppy" in taste. I don't think it really tastes like berries too much though. I'm just happy that I am getting my daily Vitamin C allowance in a neat vitamin drop. Each bag has about 20 drops in it or so which means it won't last a full month but hey if you want to spend the money on it go right ahead. There are other ways to get your Vitamin C but I decided I would rather try them out than return them and I wasn't very disappointed with my decision.
