Planetary Herbals Slippery Elm Lozenges, 24 Count

I wish they would list the ingredients to these lozenges -slippery elm bark along with fructose, natural orange tangerine flavor, stevia leaf concentrate, and magnesium stearate. It's a small container. Taste is ok.

Once again A good product was/is ruined by "making it better" the "natural orange tangerine flavor,citric acid" makes this product useless to me! The basic Slippery Elm is soothing to my throat and stomach, This product is like swallowing sand! it leaves a VERY uncomfortable feeling in in my throat, also does nothing for my stomach! Has been added to my do NOT purchase again list.

I really hate tol eave a bad review for Planetary Herbals, as the founder of the company was one of my first herb teachers a million years ago. That being said, these are disgusting and certainly not an adequate replacement for Thayer's. My fault for not looking more carefully at the 'other' ingredients, but really? Two kinds of sugar, at least two ingredients for preservation (citric acid and stearic acid) and a gross flavoring that makes them taste like someone's bad idea of a 50/50 bar make these completely useless to me. As soon as I took the first one, I started having an allergic response - burning on my tongue and cheek, itchy throat, face starting to itch...a classic histamine intolerance reaction. Beware of you have sensitivities to citrus or any of the other questionable additives in these. Slippery Elm and honey would have sufficed. These go back. I'll make my own and spare the plastic container.

I was surprised at the texture and flavor of these lozenges. I didn't like the feel of them on my tongue, as they dissolved quickly into a sort of pasty mix.

I bought these for sore throats but didn't seem to a help a bit.
