Medicinal Sweets

When Summer draws to a close and Autumn rears its head it is not rare for people to start suffering from sore throats and the common cold. While there are plenty of products available through your local pharmacy one can also turn to the local sweet shop for medicinal sweets to help you through these periods.
Some of the most popular choices are:
Army & Navy - a traditional hard boiled sweet available in the United Kingdom. They are black lozenge shaped and flavoured with liquorice and herbs, with a flavour that is similar to Cough Candy.
Cough Candy Twists - a herbal/spice with a medicinal taste.
Throat Chest - A menthol sweet that is very effective in soothing your throat.
Grays Herbal Tablets – a great choice for soothing your throat…and delicious too!
Jakeman’s Menthol Sweets - carefully blended medicinal sweets to provide a soothing vapour action with exciting and mouth watering flavours, including Menthol & Eucalyptus, Cherry Menthol, Honey & Lemon Menthol and Blueberry Menthol.
Aniseed Twists - a type of boiled sweet commonly available in the UK and one of the most popular sweets of its kind on the market.
Although none of the above will cure your ailments on their own they certainly will help soothe your problems and make the experience a better one than it would have been without the benefits that medicinal sweets can offer.
