Intensive rhythm of life, adverse ecological conditions and many other factors lower the natural defense of the body. Statistically nearly every adult catches a cold 2-4 times a year, children – 6-10 times!
Weakened immune system needs our help – the effective natural product, which has no side effects.
Echinacea is known for centuries as a perfect immune system stimulator, natural antibiotic.
Echinacea is thought to support the immune system by activating white blood cells. (1) Echinacea may also increase production of interferon - specific protein, an important part of the body's response to viral infections. (2)
Echinacea also has anti-inflammatory properties.
Echinacea is used as a supplementary treatment for the infectious diseases (colds, flu, and upper respiratory tract infections) and different inflammatory diseases.
Echinacea not only stimulates the immune system, but also has antibacterial properties, similar to antibiotics. Thus the effectiveness of Echinacea is high not only in fighting viruses, but also bacteria, which cause respiratory tract, urinary tract, and skin diseases.
