Cathay Herbal Loquat Leaf Cough Syrup 150ml is traditionally used to help ease cough as well as to eliminate phlegm. This product is traditional Chinese medicine, which is especially useful at soothing and dealing with sticky phlegm which is usually difficult to shift.

Traditional Chinese medicine has been in use for around 3,500 years. Although relatively new to the west, when compared with China and its immediate neighbours, traditional Chinese medicine is still used to treat a huge one-quarter of the world’s population.

The loquat itself is a rather tasty and juicy fruit but the leaves have many medicinal properties that we are able to take advantage of, as we have here with Cathay Herbal Loquat Leaf Cough Syrup. The tree is native to China and bears fruit that is shaped like a plum, coloured like an orange and tastes like a blend of mango and peach.

The leaves of the fruit contain several nutrients and vitamins such as iron, fibre, potassium, pectin and vitamins C and A. They also contain something called triterpenoid acid, which is helpful for the reduction of swelling redness of the skin.

The benefits of using Cathay Herbal Loquat Leaf Cough Syrup 150ml include:

• Can help with the alleviation of inflammation, thanks to the triterpenoid acid contained in loquat leaves


• The presence of triterpenoid acid can also help alleviate pain


• It has historically been used by the Chinese to soothe and clear sticky phlegm which can prove difficult to eliminate
