Active Ingredient	Uses based on scientific evidence	Grade*
arginine (l-arginine)	early study suggests that arginine supplements may decrease the risk of respiratory (lung) infections. large, well-controlled studies are needed to clarify this relationship.	c
belladonna (atropa belladonna l. or its variety acuminata royle ex lindl)	belladonna can cause relaxation of the airway and reduce the amount of mucus produced. however, due to a lack of high-quality human research in this area, there is not enough evidence to form a clear conclusion.	c
ginseng (american ginseng, asian ginseng, chinese ginseng, korean red ginseng, panax ginseng: panax spp. including p. ginseng c.c. meyer and p. quinquefolius l., excluding eleutherococcus senticosus)	ginseng (cvt-e002) may be safe, well tolerated, and potentially effective for preventing acute respiratory illnesses caused by the flu or the respiratory syncytial virus. more study is needed in this area.	c
