Ohco Cold Snap Caps
OHCO (Oriental Herb Company) / Snap Dynasty Herb Company
Overview
The effectiveness of Ohco Cold Snap Caps is difficult to ascertain due to its proprietary blend, which does not disclose the amounts of each individual ingredient. While many of the contained herbs have a history of traditional use and some preclinical/animal research suggesting anti-inflammatory, antiviral, or immune-modulating properties (e.g., Forsythia, Japanese Honeysuckle, Ginger), the absence of transparent dosing means it's impossible to determine if these ingredients are present at clinically effective levels. Furthermore, the inclusion of Pinellia, which is associated with significant safety concerns and is banned in some regions, strongly impacts the overall risk-benefit assessment for efficacy.
The Good
