The ingredients that compose RespireAid are all very safe; therefore, its long term use should be fine. However, the effectiveness of RespireAid might slowly decrease due to physiological tolerance, so we suggest that if there are no particular symptom expressed, it is better to stop taking RespireAid for 3-7 days after taking it for 4 weeks so that it can be completely metabolized and the body can have a period to relax.

All Mightea has antioxidants that reduce inflammation, but its effectiveness is far lower than that of RespireAid. We would like to suggest taking All Mightea daily to strengthen the immune system, but if you are suffering the risk of an infection or if you are at the early stages of an infection, then it is suggested to take RespireAid.
People want to prevent Covid19 or influenza during seasonal changes and it is alright to take RespireAid once symptoms such as a cough or sore throat occurs.

In Tri-Service General Hospital, only after western medicine can not get improvement then the TCM can start intervention and all start getting desirable effects.

Will the Maltodextrin in the RespireAid impact the blood glucose ?
☆ RespireAid contains only a small amount of Maltodextrin and therefore the intake of Maltodextrin is minimal. It is essential that people with diabetes follow a healthy and balanced diet in order to maintain blood glucose levels.
The glycemic index of Maltodextrin range from 85-120
→If we take the highest index 120 to calculate GL, the GL of taking 1 sachet RespireAid = (120*1.175) ÷ 100 = 1.41 ----→ Low GL
→If we take the lowest index 85 to calculate GL, the GL of taking 1 sachet RespireAid= (85*1.175) ÷ 100 = 0.99 ----→ Low GL
◆ GI (Glycemic Index) : The glycemic index measures how fast and how much a food raises blood glucose levels. Foods with higher index values raise blood sugar more rapidly than foods with lower glycemic index values do.
◆ GL (Glycemic Load): Glucose Levels rise and fall when you eat a meal containing carbohydrates. How high it rises and how long it stays high depends on the quality of the carbohydrates (the GI) as well as the quantity. Glycemic combines both the quantity and quality of the amount of foods you take, it’s the way to see whether the food has been overtaken or not.
The formula for calculating the GL of a particular food or meal is:
Glycemic Load = GI x Carbohydrate (g) content per portion ÷ 100
GL (Glycemic Load) less than 10 is considered low
GL (Glycemic Load) between 11~19 is considered medium
GL (Glycemic Load) greater than 20 is considered high
