Phytocort is an all-natural herbal supplement based on a formulation called ASHMI plus a fourth ingredient called noni extract (which was not included in the original ASHMI formulation).
Phytocort was designed to help in the treatment and management of asthma and other breathing disorders. It is one of the supplements which has helped my family dramatically reduce our use of prescription medications like albuterol and advair.
If you’d like to read more about how I accidentally stumbled upon Phytocort and it’s very positive effect on my family, please read my article entitled: ASHMI Clear Breathing with Chinese Herbs.
Each Phytocort capsule is made up of 1,600 mg of a proprietary blend of 4 herbs: lingzhi mushroom extract (also known as reishi mushroom extract), sophora root extract(also known as kushen), chinese licorice root extract (also known as gan cao) and noni fruit extract.
The manufacturer’s recommended dosage is three capsules >> three times daily to start, then two capsules >> twice daily for a maintenance dose OR as directed by your medical practitioner.
Phytocort is manufactured by a company by the name of Allergy Research Group and marketed under their “Nutricology” brand line. Needless to say, we recommend Phytocort highly and have purchased it from several online and “brick and mortar” stores. Our top two online recommendations are:
My only experience with a local “brick and mortar” store which I purchased Phytocort from is called “The Vitamin Shoppe.”
Again, if you’d like to read more about Phytocort and it’s positive effect on my family’s breathing, as well as comments from a large and diverse group of people, please read my article entitled: ASHMI Clear Breathing with Chinese Herbs.





After 2 or three days exposed to too many places with too many chemicals, for too many hours, have been struggling to breath: inflammed airways producing fluid, cough trying to get rid of that. Airways narrowed.
It always takes time to clear the chemicals from body.
But while it is clearing, I rummaged about to find anything in the house that might help..
Drink more water, inhale steam, cough as effectively as possible…
All with little relief.
As desperation pushed harder, found old bottle of Phytocort.
Phytocort MUST be good, because the old bottle [that expired 11/08]–it has been working!
Just need to find quick source of more, to last long enuf to get through this episode, and until I can order directly from company again.
