What is Echinacea Purpurea Extract?
Echinacea purpurea extract is the most widely used medicinal plant and is often used for trauma such as colds, toothaches, and snake bites. The United States has used it for years as an alternative to boosting the immune system and clearing the blood, especially when the seasons change and when colds and coughs are frequent.
Echinacea is a flowering plant native to North America. It is one of several echinacea used as a dietary supplement. Echinacea is one of the most widely used herbal immune supplements and can be used with the roots, flowering tops, or both for best results. Echinacea Extract supports an overall healthy immune system and basically acts as an immunoadaptogen. While the roots contain many compounds, the complex arabinogalactan polysaccharide supports innate immune cells in a manner consistent with trained immunity.
Echinacea polyphenols are one of the most important immunologically active components. Studies have shown that cichoric acid has immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties, inhibits hyaluronidase, and protects collagen from free radicals that can lead to degradation. Echinacea is a botanical medicine with very specific and clear therapeutic indicators for a variety of diseases at the same time. Echinacea is the only deep immune substance with "medulla protection" effect in nature, which can significantly improve and maintain autoimmunity.
