PELAFORCE™ Gummies

PELAFORCE Gummies combine convenient supplementation with PELAFORCE™ Pelargonium sidoides root extract, Afraceuticals’ flagship medicinal botanical extract derived from the root of the African geranium. Afraceuticals specifically identifies gummies as one of the final-product applications for its PELAFORCE™ extract.

Pelargonium sidoides has a longstanding history of medicinal use for respiratory health. Afraceuticals positions its PELAFORCE™ extract for cough, sinus, cold and flu relief and states that Pelargonium sidoides is used as both a herbal medicine and food supplement.

The botanical contains a complex range of naturally occurring compounds. Afraceuticals identifies polyphenols, coumarins, anthocyanins and flavonoids within Pelargonium sidoides, including umckalin, quercetin, catechin and gallocatechin.

Afraceuticals describes four principal areas of activity for its Pelargonium sidoides extract: antiviral, antibacterial, immune-modulating and mucolytic/expectorant activity. For consumer use, these properties support the positioning of PELAFORCE Gummies for respiratory wellness, natural immune defence and healthy mucus clearance.
