Echinacea

 A natural immune booster, Echinacea triggers the production of two protein substances that help fight bacteria and viruses - interferon and properdin. As such, it is used as a remedy for chronic and viral infections (sinus, bronchitis, tonsillitis, and pneumonia), flu, colds, respiratory problems, and skin wounds/infections (boils, bites, acne, psoriasis).

Of note, Echinacea is most effective when taken at the onset of symptoms.

Its uses have also expanded to include helping with arthritis, some cancers (helping patients to recover quicker and stay healthier during radiation and chemotherapy treatments), and even as a supplemental treatment for AIDS.

Remedy Preparation: extracting juice from fresh (blooming) plant, and processing with alcohol

Method of Administration: Tincture drops, herbal tea (see Healthful Teas/Colds and Flu)
