Coughing is an obvious sign of poor health and the leading reason for patient visits to doctors. Over one billion dollars are spent annually on over-the-counter (OTC) cough remedies for cough issues, yet the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) has recently reported that OTC cough expectorants and suppressants don’t address the underlying causes of the cough, and often don’t help at all. Antibiotics are also of limited value, since 95% of all coughs are viral in nature. Antibiotics may be helpful for reducing phlegm, but they can weaken the immune system. Traditional Chinese healing practices takes a different approach to cough, relying on classical formulas, some dating back to the 15th century, that remain popular today and continue to be used by millions of people throughout Asia. Significantly, a growing body of scientific research has shed light on properties of traditional herbal ingredients historically used to support lung health. Andrographis (Chuan Xin LIan, Andrographis Paniculata) Andrographis has been shown to be a safe traditional botanical for supporting upper respiratory tract health, per analysis of seven double-blind controlled trials. (1) Andrographis has been shown to inhibit RANTES secretion in inflamed bronchial cells. (2) RANTES is a chemoattractant for eosinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes that is stored in, and released by, platelets and activated T-cells. In related research:
 Andrographolide, an active ingredient in Andrographis, has been shown to be responsible for the herb’s inflammatory modulating actions, including the reduction of cytokine and peritoneal deposition of neutrophils, and modulation of lung inflammation in vivo. (3) Extracts of Andrographis exhibit potent inflammatory modulating and antioxidant actions in mouse models. (4)
Scutellaria (Huang Qin, Radix Scutellaria Baicalenses) Scutellaria root has a long history of use in China to support a healthy immune system. (5,6) In related research:
 Baicalein, a major flavonoid in Scutellaria, supports cardiovascular health. (7) Research shows that Scutellaria root modulates inflammatory activity to inhibit nitric oxide (NO), cytokine, chemokine and growth factor production in macrophages. (8) Scutellaria has been shown to inhibit histamine and leukotriene release. (9)
Gardenia Jasminoides (Zhi Zi, Gardenia Jasminoides) Genipen, an active ingredient in Gardenia, regulates inflammatory activity in mice study. (10) Geniposide from Gardenia enhances glutathione content in rat livers. Glutathione is an important immune system amino acid that helps determine modulation of immune response, including cytokine production. (11) Morus Alba (Sang Bai Pi, Radicis Cortex Morus Alba) Morus alba extracts have been shown to regulate mast cell degranulation and histamine release. (12) In a related study, a polysaccharide from Morus root has been shown to have immune-modulating activity. (13) Belamcanda (She Gan, Rhizoma Belamcandae Chinensis) An active ingredient from Belamcanda, irigenin, has inflammatory modulating properties in macrophage immune cells. (14) Asparagus (Tian Men Dong, Asparagus Cochinchinensis) Extracts from Asparagus root have been shown to modulate inflammatory actions. (15) Trichosanthes (Gua Lou Ren, Semen Trichosanthes) Trichosanthes seed extracts contain inflammatory regulating ingredients, including triterpenes. (16) Fritillaria (Chuan Bei Mu, Bulbus Fritillaria Chirrhosa) Fritillaria bulb is considered an anti-tussive herb, with imperialine identified as the major bioactive component. (17) Platycodon (Jie Geng, Radix Platycodon Grandiflorum) Platycodon root has been widely used in China for upper respiratory inflammatory issues. Active ingredients platycodon D and D3 increase mucin release in rat and hamster tracheal cells and provide useful expectorant effects. (18) In related research:
 Platycodon extracts exhibit inflammatory modulating effects on human-cultured airway epithelial cells. (19) Platycodon regulates inflammation via diverse pathways including modulation of IL-8 secretion by microglial cells. (20)
Stemona (Bai Bu Radix Stemona) Stemonines from Stemona root display anti-tussive activity in a guinea pig cough model. (21) In related research, stilbenoids, including resveratrol from Stemona root, inhibit leukotriene formation. (22) Licorice (Gan Cao, Radix Glycyrrhiza Uralensis) Glycyrrhizin from Glycyrrhiza root helps to modulate airway constriction, lung inflammation and infiltration of eosinophils in bronchial areas. (23) In related research:
 Glycyrrhiza root promotes CD4 and CD8 immune cell function. (24) A related study identifies the main anti-tussive active ingredients in glycyrrhiza root in various phases of the cough response. (25)
BronchoPhase is appropriate for all ages, including children above the age of 6. For infants less than 6 years of age Chinese herbs should be given only by an experienced practitioner.

What is the recommended daily dose of BronchoPhase?
The recommended starting daily dose of BronchoPhase is 2 capsules, 2 times per day.
How much BronchoPhase can I safely take in a day?
You can safely take 2 capsules, 5 times per day for a total of 10 capsules in a day. However, that should only be necessary for short periods of time to initiate results. After benefits appear, you can reduce the dose to 2 capsules, 2 times per day or 2 capsules once per day.
How do I know BronchoPhase is working for me?
BronchoPhase is a Tango Advanced Nutrition product that should make a change for you in how you feel. It should improve lung health so that you breathe more easily.
You should expect improvements to occur quickly as many of our customers report dramatic improvement in the first few days of use. The change should be very noticeable. Instead of saying to yourself, “I think this might be helping me”, you really should be able to say, “Wow, I feel a lot better.”
Usually, very clear results show up in the first month of use for most people.
Do I have to take BronchoPhase forever?
Everybody has a different set of circumstances that will determine how their lung health will improve when using BronchoPhase. Your response to the supplement will be determined by your individual health circumstances. Problems with lung health may be long-standing over many years. This may determine how soon you notice positive changes and how long you may need or wish to take the formula.
However, the formula is strong enough so that everybody who will get benefits should expect them in the first month of use.
When positive changes in lung health happen, you can lower your dose gradually by one capsule at a time every 4-5 days and expect to see continued benefits. The reason for this is that, as with all true health-promoting supplements, BronchoPhase provides restorative results.
Some people will be able to discontinue BronchoPhase and switch to a different supplement that provides daily benefit for all of their health concerns. Others will take the formula on an as-needed basis. And some will take it daily to counter any ongoing stresses they experience in lung and nasal function.
When should I take BronchoPhase?
The most important consideration in taking BronchoPhase is to use it daily and consistently. Convenience makes regular use possible, so including BronchoPhase in your regular supplement routine is a good idea.
You can take BronchoPhase with or away from meals.
Morning and early evening are the best times to take the formula to spread out its benefits over a 24-hour period.
Some people take BronchoPhase about 1 hour before bedtime to make sure they have beneficial nutrients working while they are sleeping.
Can I take BronchoPhase with other supplements?
Yes, you can take BronchoPhase with and at the same time as you take other dietary supplements.
I take over-the-counter/prescriptive medicines. Can I take BronchoPhase with them?
You can take BronchoPhase while you are using other products for your any health condition. However, you should always take BronchoPhase or any other supplement at least 2 hours away from any medication to reduce any possible risk of interaction.
If you have any questions about using BronchoPhase or any other supplement while you are using medications of any type, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Can I combine BronchoPhase with some of your other products like AllerPhase or ImmunoPhase?
Yes, you can take BronchoPhase with AllerPhase and/or ImmunoPhase. However, we suggest starting at a lower dose of each than is recommended on the bottle as there is some overlap in function between the three supplements. You can increase the doses of each by one capsule per day until you feel the effect that you are trying to achieve.
You can also call one of our product specialists if you have questions about how best to combine our formulas. The toll-free number for product questions is 1-866-778-2646, ext. 2.
Can a woman take BronchoPhase if she is pregnant or nursing?
No, we do not recommend that a woman take BronchoPhase if she is pregnant or nursing. This is not because BronchoPhase is unsafe but because there have been no safety studies performed on the ingredients in BronchoPhase for pregnancy and nursing.
Can children take BronchoPhase?
Children age 6-12 can take 1/2 the adult dose, or one capsule, two times per day.
BronchoPhase is not recommended for children under age 6 as they have supplement needs that differ from older children and adults.
Can I give BronchoPhase to my pet (cat, dog, or horse)?
Yes, however, you should contact a holistic veterinarian for advice on the dose you should give to your pet, since animals vary widely in size and speed of metabolism. Both of those factors determine doses for supplements for animals.
Is BronchoPhase tested for contaminants that could harm my health?
Yes, we regularly test batches of our formulas to make sure they meet strict quality control guidelines recommended by government regulatory agencies.
Are there any side effects from taking BronchoPhase?
BronchoPhase does not cause drowsiness or make a person sleepy. It also does not contain any stimulants that might cause jitteriness or lack of sleep.
What do I do if I think taking BronchoPhase is causing me discomfort?
The most common discomforts experienced by a tiny percentage of people when taking any vitamin, mineral, or herbal formula are digestive upset or very mild allergic reactions such as skin itching or irritability.
These minor discomforts usually disappear by taking a lower dose or by taking the supplement with meals.
If you should experience discomfort when taking BronchoPhase and it does not go away with these suggestions, then discontinue use and contact our product specialist for further recommendations at 1-866-778-2646, ext 2. If we cannot determine a way for you to continue use of the product to gain its benefits, then we will arrange for a full refund for you.
I see that BronchoPhase contains licorice. Will that raise my blood pressure?
No, there are less than 5 mg. of licorice powder in each capsule of BronchoPhase.
This means that glycyrrhizic acid, the active ingredient in licorice responsible for elevating blood pressure is about 0.2 mg. per capsule. At the largest recommended dose of BronchoPhase per day of 10 capsules, you would be getting 1.6 mg. per day of glycyrrhizic acid.
Studies have shown that continuous use of 100 mg. per day of glycyrrhizic acid is safe and does not elevate blood pressure.
You would have to take 500 capsules or 8+ bottles of BronchoPhase per day to even reach this safe amount of 100 mg. per day of glycyrrhizic acid.

Joan Simpson –
Have not noticed any change. Perhaps it’s because I’ve used them for a short time. Hopefully I’ll see results soon
