Description
Organic Echinacea is a dietary supplement formulated to support the immune system and promote antioxidant activity. Organic Echinacea is available in veggie capsules from Natura-Genics®.
How It Works
Echinacea, a group of flowering plants cherished for centuries by Native Americans, boasts active compounds like caffeic acid, alkamides, phenolic acids, rosmarinic acid, and polyacetylenes. These compounds are believed to stimulate the immune system.
Benefits of Echinacea
- Promotes immune function
- Promotes antioxidant activity
- Promotes antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects
- Supports pain relief
It is believed that echinacea not only promotes a stronger immune response against infections but may also support and help the body during infection. Echinacea appears to promote shortened duration and severity of colds and other upper respiratory infections. This may be due to its antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Research has shown that echinacea appears to increase the number of white blood cells in the body. White blood cells are responsible for helping fight off infection.
Antioxidants are molecules that help protect cells in the body from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Echinacea contains antioxidants including flavonoids, cichoric acid, and rasmarinic acid. Additionally, echinacea contains alkamides, which can renew worn-out antioxidants and help them reach molecules more effectively.
