What is it and what is it for?

Ricola Perlas Sin Azúcar Limón is a food product developed as a pleasant and tasty treatment for throat and pharynx ailments. Its blend of herbs and lemon balm extract provides a refreshing effect that helps to relieve the aches and pains associated with the throat and voice.

It can be used as a preventive method, before giving a long talk or conversation, as it will help to keep the voice clear and healthy. It can also be used if you are already experiencing throat discomfort, due to dryness or other factors, as it will soothe and speed recovery.

It uses a unique blend of herbs grown in the Swiss Alps, using natural and organic methods. It contains no sugar, as it is sweetened with a sweetener called isomalt.

It has a fruity and fresh taste with a citrus touch thanks to lemon and lemon balm. Its formulation does not contain allergens such as gluten or lactose, so it is suitable for consumption by people with coeliac disease and those intolerant to dairy derivatives.

Its composition will not interfere negatively with the health of teeth. It is also suitable for vegans, as no animals have been mistreated during its manufacture and it does not contain animal derivatives. The colouring is of natural origin, as are the flavourings.

It is enriched with vitamin C, a micronutrient that provides an excellent antioxidant effect to protect cells from oxidative stress.

Who is it suitable for?

It is mainly suitable for people who want to take care of their voice and throat. But it can also be used as a normal candy because of its rich, refreshing citrus flavour. It is suitable for both adults and children. Pregnant and breastfeeding women can also consume it without any inconvenience.
