Description

Supporting your immune system

The immune system is your first, and most important, defense against disease and illness. It is an intricate network of cells, glands, and chemical mediators that help your body to resist and overcome infection. If your immune system is weakened from stress, poor diet or lifestyle imbalances, or by other underlying health conditions, you can become more susceptible to illness.

What is Echinacea Root? (Echinacea angustifolia)

Echinacea has been used by native peoples of North America for hundreds of years for promoting a healthy immune system response and helping to overcome infection. More recently, a large body of scientific evidence provides support for its traditional uses and has demonstrated the effectiveness of Echinacea upon immune health.

Extensive research has gone into determining what the active ingredients in Echinacea are, and how they function. The roots and/or flowers are most often used, and both contain complementary, immunosupportive compounds.

Some of its major active constituents include:

polysaccharides (considered to be immunomodulating)
phytosterols
phenols (cichoric, caffeic, and caftaric acids; echinacoside)
alkylamides

Research has demonstrated that these plant compounds exert a natural, antibiotic-like action in the body. They support the production of white blood cells including T-cells, a group of immune cells that are especially important for defending against viruses.

Contrary to popular belief, Echinacea is safe for long-term use and will not decrease immune response when taken over time. This myth arose from a misinterpretation of a study that was done about 40 years ago, when it was translated (from German) into English.

What can Echinacea Root be used for?

Echinacea has been traditionally used for fever, cough, runny nose, seasonal flu, upper respiratory tract infection, Candida, and other infections, and has a vast number of scientific studies supporting its immune system benefits. As a long-term tonic, it can be used as an immune booster for those with immune deficiency (e.g., chronic colds, flu, bacterial infections, slow healing wounds, bed sores, chemotherapy, etc.).

Can Echinacea really help with colds & flu?

A large number of scientific studies have shown that Echinacea is extremely effective in supporting immune system function. A healthier immune system response may help one to resist infections such as the cold or flu, and/or lessen their severity or duration.

Are there any side effects?

If you are on any medications, we recommend that you always inform your doctor of any supplements or natural remedies that you are considering taking, prior to using.

What is the recommended dosage?

Can I take Echinacea with prescription drugs?

If you are on medications, always inform your doctor of any supplements or natural remedies that you are considering taking, prior to using.

How long will it take before I see results?

Clinical studies have shown that Echinacea may lessen the severity and duration of colds and flu by between 1 to 4 days.
