UMCKA™ How a Zulu remedy became a best-selling new medicine Umcka™ ColdCare brings to America the current success story of the German market. With phenomenal growth, it's gone from being an obscure herbal remedy to become one of Germany's top new medicines. In the past two years sales have jumped over 700%--growing faster than any other brand. It's success is attributed to impressive clinical results, high consumer satisfaction and a fascinating history that originates from the native cultures of South Africa. In 1897, an Englishman named Charles Stevens went to South Africa hoping to cure himself of tuberculosis. He consulted with a Basuto tribal healer who gave him a decoction of a local medicinal plant. Fully recovered, Charles Stevens returned to England with his mysterious remedy--which became popular throughout Europe as "Steven's Consumption Cure". In 1920, a former missionary doctor, Adrien Sechehaye, learned of Steven's cure. During the next nine years he treated over 800 patients in Switzerland with a homeopathic preparation of the medicine. In 1929 he published the medical case studies. But with the introduction of synthetic tuberculosis drugs, Steven's remedy became largely forgotten in Western medicine--until its recent "rediscovery" by European researchers. That's where the story of Umcka™ really begins. THE UMCKA™ NAME: What the Basuto healer gave Charles Stevens was a traditional remedy made from the roots of Pelargonium sidoides--a species of geranium unique to South Africa. Among the Zulu, the medicine was described as "umKhulkane' (denoting respiratory infection) + 'uHlabo' (roughly meaning chest pain). Nature's Way introduces the medicine to America simply as Umcka™ For hundreds of years the Zulu, Basuto, Xhosa and Mfengi cultures have used Pelargonium sidoides as a curative for coughs, upper respiratory tract irritations and gastrointestinal concerns. Today, with the advantages of modern science and clinical research, we are able to better understand what makes this traditional remedy work so effectively. Umcka™ is a pharmaceutically prepared mother tincture (1X) of Pelargonium sidoides roots that have been cultivated and harvested in our own plantation in South Africa. PHARMACOLOGICALLY UNIQUE: Chemical analysis of Pelargonium sidoides and the Umcka™ tincture reveal a unique profile of known pharmacologically active constituents. WORKS DIFFERENTLY: While most other cough, cold and sinus medications simply mask outward symptoms, the mechanisms and actions of Umcka™ actually support faster recovery. SHORTENS DURATION AND REDUCES SEVERITY: Clinical trials show that Umcka™ shortens the duration and reduces the severity of upper respiratory irritations. HIGH SATISFACTION: In a physician assessment of adults and children suffering from common cold, chest and throat irritations, Umcka™ was rated effective in nearly 90% of cases!! *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
