Echinacea: What is it ?

Echinacea is a wild flower native to the grasslands of central United States of America. It was used amongst native tribes and by European settlers as an all-purpose infection fighter. It is now one of the most extensively used herbal remedies in the world.

Only 3 of the 9 species of echinacea
have medicinal properties

Always ensure that you buy Echinacea as a standardized extract as this guarantees potency.

Echinacea: Main Benefits

Echinacea is perhaps best known for its use in fighting the two most common viral infections, colds and flu. Regular use of echinacea reduces the body's susceptibility to these infections. Taking a daily high dose of echinacea at the first sign of a cold or flu can limit both its duration and severity.

Echinacea stimulates your body's own
immune-system cells

Echinacea is a natural antibiotic and infection fighter, helping the body to kill viruses, bacteria, fungi and other disease causing microbes. As well as stimulating the bodies own immune system defences echinacea also boosts cells' production of interferon, a substance used in fighting viruses.

Echinacea: Lesser-Known Benefits

Echinacea may also limit the duration and severity of infections and speed the healing of skin wounds and inflammations.
