Très efficace! Je l’ai pris dès le début de la toux car dans mon cas ça se transforme vite en bronchite et dès le lendemain, plus rien!

May have made my cough go away faster
These capsules may have contributed to making my cough symptoms subside faster than they would have if I didn’t take them, but that’s difficult to know for sure. However, I liked how well packaged they were, with security seals on the outside of the cap, as well as underneath the cap. These are definitely worth a try.

Medicine cabinet staple
You should have these on hand at all times! Has helped me get through not just colds but Covid! I also give to our kids when they start feeling sick. Easy to just mix into a liquid for them. It is reassuring to know these come from real plants and not synthetic as well.

Great Product
Had a persistent cough that would not go away, Everyone I knew seemed to have the same thing. Someone recommended Cold Formula and I went straight out and bought a box. That was the first night that I was able to get a full nights sleep, that I wasn't awakened from coughing. it did take some time but eventually I was able to get rid of the cough.

Follow Directions!
4 stars out of 5This cold symptom natural relief formula works surprisingly well! Honestly it worked so well that I was surprised. I recently had a nasty cold and had no choice but to continue on with my daily life while sick. This helped to alleviate a lot of my daily symptoms and I like that this is naturally derived and overall better for my body.I will caution you to read the directions before use. I ignored the direction about taking this with food and did have an upset stomach with that use. When I used as directed in the future I was able to take these without stomach upset.

Always hard to tell, but seems to work!
It is always hard to tell how well this kind of product works. My family had a minor cold and I seemed to be catching it, so I took these pills a few times - it didn’t go beyond minor irritation in my throat, so I think it worked, but that may have also been my immune system. The nice thing is it is all natural, and the pills are much smaller than your standard vitamin, so almost anyone can take it regardless of your gag reflex.

Cold formula
It’s good to have a formula in hand in advance to treat the illness.I still have to try it. However it doesn’t state for how long it should be used, I’m assuming when the symptoms start till they fade away?Also I find these on a pricey side.

There is clinical evidence for efficacy; I'll have to wait and see
While I don't tend to take any medication for colds, I am open to the idea of a herbal supplement like this Cold Formula.On the surface, these look like ordinary multivitamin capsules, and would be easy to swallow. The directions for adults recommend 1 capsule, 3x daily, and I assume that it's when you first notice symptoms of a cold.I don't actively have a cold, so I can't say how effective it is for me personally, but I was curious about the clinically proven part of their claims.The main medicinal ingredient is Pelargonium sidoides, which is South African Geranium. I did search through Pubmed to see what I could find regarding using it for cold relief and upper respiratory infection relief.I did come across several which showed positive results, so I do trust that this will have some effect on shortening colds and symptoms. I guess I'll have to wait.With 60 capsules per bottle, if I were to assume that you'll be taking these for 5 days, then that would be 15 capsules or about 4 colds worth of relief. Not bad, unless your family is always sick with colds, then it can get pretty expensive to keep up.

FAST WORKING COLD FORMULA
Wow what fast working cold formula which came in on the right time and also this is so much better then taking liquid cold medicine I find which I really use to hate taking and with just 24 hours i was feeling so much better as a person in my eyes could say so much about this type of cold formula which also deserves a well deserved 5 stars in my eyes and with that said THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING MY REVIEW

Natural remedy with long expiration
I'm always on the hunt for natural remedies over other medicines. Great to see this product with small capsules that are easy to swallow without any taste. Excellent that it can be use with kids 6+. Expiration is 2025. So that gives me time to get sick and try it out. (Or prevent me from getting sick when signs set in).

Plant based Cold Remedy
LEAFSOURCE plant based Cold Formula is filled with great ingredients including vitamines to fight colds and its symptoms.I haven’t tested it yet, but it’s for sure hood to have it handy in my medicine cabinet.The South African geranium is used to treat gastrointestinal ailments, cold and flu remedies, respiratory tract infections, along to treat symptoms and alleviate the illness duration. In addition, it can help fight upper respiratory tract infections like bronchitis, sinusitis, and the common cold by naturally increasing the body’s healing ability.Not looking forward to be sick, but to try its beneficial healing capacity.

4.5 STARS. Apparently 100% plant-based, hopefully these are good plants.
Current price point at the time/date of this review: $34.99 with a $2 off coupon currently being provided by the seller at this time. Pricing appears to be fair, really hard to tell with a product such as this as it’s a formula and mixmash of different ingredients. The capsule count is nothing to get excited about (60 capsules) but it looks legit.Branding is fine, sure there’s nothing sexy about it, in fact it looks just ever so slightly a tad amateurish, but it’s fine. Here’s the thing about branding for me personally: A company who cares about their image and how their products are perceived is a company who cares. This doesn’t seem like one of those products sort of tossed out there, but a lot of intentional effort and care was taken throughout the process. That’s important to know.

Perfect Timing
What a coincidence right around the time I ordered this product. Very recently in Ontario we had a severe shortage or children's cough, cold and flu medications. Fast forward a month later and the same thing happened with adult formulas. I was lucky to see this product on Amazon and order it right away. This is my first time taking a product with Pelargonium sidoides (South African Geranium) so far the results have been great. I was starting to feel the effects of something coming, as I was starting to get a runny nose, a cough and fatigue. I started taking these LeafsSource Cold Formula tablets right away and took them for a few days. My symptoms did not get any worse and they passed after two days. This is my experience and it may not be yours. If you have a shortage of cough, cold and flu medicines in your area then it won't hurt to try an all natural Canadian made product.

Haven't had a cold in a while
I will start taking this as soon as I start getting a sniffle which hopefully won't be anytime soon.

Relief of cold symptoms
Cold Formula by LeafSource seems to be made of pretty good ingredients. In this time of the year, RSV is going around. Something that can reduce and relieve symptoms of the cold is really appreciated. We took some during the last round of cold and it might have helped us a bit. Our recovery was a little faster than previous rounds.

Although nothing can instantly cure a cold, this capsule makes my symptoms so much easier to bear!

Absolutely must have in household
I tried a lot of natural cold and flu remedies, but this one wins over all other products combined! 2 times my husband and I have taken this for a cold and respiratory illness , we have gotten over it within 2-3 days versus 1-2 weeks like everyone else. The effectiveness of this cold formula blows me away. Take it as soon as you have the slightest symptoms and the cold might not develop into anything at all. Keep taking it a day or two after symptoms occur. This is a must for every Canadian household!

The Product Actually Works
A friend of mine raved about the LeafSource Cold Formula when she overcame a bad flu in a matter of days a few month ago. Of course I came down with some nasty symptoms a few days after her and decided to give this product a try. Low and behold, I felt better almost immediately(well actually the next day). A super bonus was the fact that I no longer experience nasal problems, which I have suffered from for years(congestion, runny nose, etc.) Now use one capsule of LeafSource Cold Formula a day as a preventative, and everyone I recommend the formula to, thank me over and over again.

This actually worked to rid my chronic sore throat after getting really sick.
So, my family and I got super sick with that RSV that is spreading rampantly this time of year. After all of my symptoms subsided, only ONE stayed to torture me. A sore throat. This sore throat was not going ANYWHERE, no matter what I tried. I was gargling with salt water multiple times a day, drinking honey-lime tea and sucking on lozenges basically all day. I was sleeping with a humidifier on, not knowing if it would make any difference, but it just was not going away regardless of what I was doing!I started taking these Cold Formula capsules and I noticed an improvement just 4 days after!! I continued to take it as I still felt a bit of soreness on one side of my throat from time to time, but it was so much milder! I was so relieved! I thought I would have to forever endure a sore throat. I strongly believe this Cold Formula helped.I really like that it's a natural way to reduce symptoms of the common cold, flu, upper respiratory infections, etc.I think it is very important to have this stocked in your medicine cabinet, especially as we enter into the colder season (fall/winter). I really like that this is safe for children to take from 6 years and up. With the flu season upon us and the current shortage of ibuprofen and acetaminophen for kids in my city, this can potentially really help your sick child! I highly, highly recommend it 10 times over!

Great vitamins to take when you're sick
These are great if you're looking for something to take while you have a cold that isn't heavy duty cold meds. More like vitamins than anything, they're nice to take, but don't expect a cure with them. They're easy to take, and don't have much flavour either.

This seems to help
These capsules seem to help with shortening common cold periods.The capsules are easy to swallow, at least for grownups.The directions say kids 6 and above can have it too, I'd say use your discretion there.The capsules should be taken 30 mins before or after meal. Personally I am going for after, as taking anything on empty stomach makes me feel nauseous.Side effects can include nosebleeds or gumbleeds, so I would say if you are on any prescribed medications, this one does require consult with your physician.
