Medicinal Properties

Now science confirms many traditional uses of echinacea, plus cortisone-like activity; also bactericidal, and immune-stimulant activities. Many studies show that echinacea prevents the formation of an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which destroys a natural barrier between healthy tissue and unwanted pathogenic organisms. Echinacea helps the body maintain its line of defense against unwanted invaders, especially viruses and is less depleting on the body than other herbs, and so is preferable for more long-term usage. Extracts are used to stimulate nonspecific defense mechanisms at infections and chronic inflammations.

Echinacea stimulates the body's immune system against all infectious and inflammatory conditions, counteracts pus, and stimulates digestion. It specifically strengthens the immune system against pathogenic infection by stimulating phagocytosis, T-cell formation, and by inhibiting the hyalurinadase enzyme secreted by bacteria to affect the breakdown of cell walls and the formation of pus. It is one of the most powerful and effective remedies against all kinds of bacterial and viral infections.

Concerns

Note: Persons with anemia or vertigo should avoid using echinacea.
