Upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) are a prevalent health issue, causing considerable morbidity. Despite the availability of conventional treatments, there is an increasing interest in natural products due to their potential antiviral and immunomodulatory benefits. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of an ELA blend (E-, L-, A-) in preventing and alleviating the symptoms of URTIs.

Exploring the Potential of L., (Michx.) Elliott, and L. Fruit Polyphenol-Rich Composition and Metformin Synergy in Type 2 Diabetes Management.

Although metformin is generally well-tolerated, it may cause gastrointestinal adverse effects and, in rare cases, precipitate lactic acidosis, necessitating cautious use in individuals with renal dysfunction. Additionally, concerns regarding its impact on hepatic function have led to its discontinuation in cirrhotic patients.
