ZIELANA Junior - Herbal complex for children 50 ml (alcohol-free, dropper)

ZIELANA Junior - herbal complex for children, 50 ml with dropper

ZIELANA Junior is a liquid herbal complex for children from the age of four, in a 50 ml bottle with a dropper. The manufacturer provides the amount of each extract in the daily portion, not just a list of plants.

A portion consists of 30 drops and contains extracts from pumpkin seeds at 260 mg, from fennel fruit at 160 mg, from thyme leaf at 65 mg, from walnut at 54 mg, from elecampane root and from calamus rhizome at 40 mg each, from ginger root at 35 mg, and from clove bud at 14 mg. The formula is also important: the preparation does not contain ethyl alcohol, and propylene glycol serves as the solvent and preservative.

The portion is dissolved in 100 ml of water, so the child does not drink the extract directly from the dropper.

Ingredients

The content of extracts in the daily portion, which is 30 drops:

• Extract from pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo) - 260 mg
• Extract from fennel fruit (Foeniculum vulgare) - 160 mg
• Extract from thyme leaf (Thymus vulgaris) - 65 mg
• Extract from walnut (Juglans regia) - 54 mg
• Extract from elecampane root (Inula helenium) - 40 mg
• Extract from calamus rhizome (Acorus calamus) - 40 mg
• Extract from ginger root (Zingiber officinale) - 35 mg
• Extract from clove bud (Syzygium aromaticum) - 14 mg
• Solvent and preservative: propylene glycol; without ethyl alcohol

Providing the amount for each plant is the most valuable part of the label here, as it allows you to see what weighs the most in this composition and what is a flavor-correcting addition: the table is opened by pumpkin seeds and fennel, and closed by ginger and clove. Compare two things with the packaging itself before giving the first portion.

This is a preparation for a child, so read this list in full, and if you avoid wormwood, check if it is included. Secondly, the ratio of extract to raw material: this note is in the same place on the label. The solvent and preservative in this recipe is propylene glycol, and the absence of ethyl alcohol is directly stated by the manufacturer.

Specification

How to use

The manufacturer outlines a schedule with specific times of day and the size of each individual dose:

• The daily portion is 30 drops, given in two doses
• 15 drops in the morning, on an empty stomach
• 15 drops in the afternoon, around 5 PM.
• Dissolve each dose in 100 ml of water
• Do not exceed the portion recommended by the manufacturer

Dissolving in water is not just a matter of taste here. With a concentrated extract, it is also a way to dilute the portion, so it is worth sticking to it instead of giving drops directly on a spoon. The manufacturer describes the use in cycles: two weeks of administration, then two weeks of break. The dropper allows for repeatable dosing, but hold it vertically - with drops of high density, the position of the dropper realistically changes the size of the drops.

For whom

This preparation is for parents looking for a herbal composition in liquid form and wanting to know how much of each ingredient their child is getting, not just what plants are on the list. The drop format with a dropper works well for children who cannot yet swallow capsules, and the manufacturer directly states the absence of ethyl alcohol. Dissolving in water clearly weakens the herbal taste, which is intense in itself.

The schedule is also easy to fit into a child’s day: the first dose in the morning, before eating, the second in the afternoon - two fixed moments, not something to remember at random times. The age limit is clear here: the manufacturer designates the preparation for children from four years old, and this limit should be taken literally. With a preparation for a child, it is one minute well spent.

Frequently asked questions
