Defend

Description

Dr. Anna Gold Defend Herbal Tincture is a proprietary herbal blend created to support immune wellness, particularly during times of seasonal change. Built around the 14th-century Jade Windscreen Formula, it brings a centuries-old herbal tradition into a modern daily wellness routine. Taken as directed, the tincture offers a targeted option when seasonal immune care becomes a greater priority.

Astragalus, atractylodes and siler form the foundational trio, complemented by burdock fruit, licorice and balloon flower root, traditionally associated with respiratory wellness. Schizonepeta, forsythia and lonicera complete the blend with a history of use in seasonal herbal preparations. Together, these carefully selected herbs create a comprehensive tonic centered on immune and respiratory wellness.

Please note: all ingestible products are final sale and excluded from our return policy.
