Kumarahou Tincture
Traditional Māori herbal support for respiratory wellbeing
Our Kumarahou Tincture is handcrafted from ethically harvested Kumarahou (Pomaderris kumeraho) and extracted in 40% food-grade alcohol to preserve the plant’s beneficial constituents.
Kumarahou has been treasured in rongoā Māori for generations as one of Aotearoa’s most valued native plants for supporting respiratory health. Traditionally, it has been used to help soothe the airways, loosen mucus, and support the body’s natural healing processes during coughs, colds, and seasonal illnesses.
Traditionally used to support:
* Coughs and chest congestion
* Colds and seasonal viral illnesses
* Healthy respiratory function
* Bronchial and lung health
* Asthma support (alongside prescribed medical treatment)
* Loosening and clearing excess mucus
* Winter wellness and recovery
Kumarahou naturally contains saponins, plant compounds traditionally valued for their expectorant properties that help loosen and clear mucus from the respiratory tract.
Ingredients
* Wild-harvested Kumarahou (Pomaderris kumeraho)
