Echinacea / Goldenseal

Description:

The popular Echinacea/Goldenseal combination provides immune enhancing and cold fighting nutrients. Echinacea is one of the most popular herbal supplements during the flu season and has been shown to stimulate and support the growth of key immune system cells to defend the body against upper respiratory infections. Goldenseal has been used traditionally to relieve respiratory discomfort and to stimulate the immune system. Together these are used in combination to help shorten the duration of colds and flu.

Echinacea, commonly known as purple cornflower, has been in use medicinally for centuries. Archaeological finds have uncovered Native American Indian usage for over 400 years. Echinacea is most often used to fight infections and boost the immune system.

The production of interferon increases in the body with the use of Echinacea. It has been shown to be beneficial in wound healing, treating boils, treating urinary infections and reducing fever.

Help for the Respiratory System and Common Cold

Echinacea has demonstrated great benefit in the treatment of upper respiratory tract infections. Numerous studies have examined the use of Echinacea for preventing the common cold. Most found that taking Echinacea at the first signs of a cold for 8 to 10 days reduced cold symptoms or shortened their duration by as much as 34%.

Goldenseal is often combined with Echinacea to help shorten the duration of colds and flu. Goldenseal is a perennial North American plant found in a large portion of the United States. It has been a main staple of Native American medicine with multiple uses both internally and externally. It has been called the “poor man’s ginseng.”

The root, or more accurately the rhizome, of the goldenseal plant is the part most often used in medicinal applications. The herb has shown great effectiveness in treating the inflammation and infection of the mucous membranes lining the upper respiratory tract.
