Echinacea Plus: Echinacea and goldenseal concentrates with vitamins and minerals for comprehensive immune system support.
- Clinical interest in Echinacea extract is evidenced by dozens of research studies on its therapeutic properties.
- Extracts of Echinacea species contain polysaccharides, alkylamides/polyacetylenes and caffeic acid derivatives that have immune stimulating effects such as proliferation of natural killer cells and monocytes, activation of macrophages, and production of cytokines (Int J Immunopharmacol 1997;19:371-9; Immunpharmacol 1997;35:229-35; J Natl Cancer Inst 1989;81:669-75).
- Numerous clinical studies attest to the benefits of Echinacea for providing relief and restoring normal upper respiratory function after exposure to common viruses (J Fam Pract 1999;48:628-35).
- Echinacea Plus is a concentrated extract of two species with demonstrated therapeutic effectiveness (Phytomedicine 1999;6:1-5; Phytomedicine 1994;1:245-54).
- The echinacosides in Echinacea Plus are approximately six times as concentrated as unprocessed fresh herbs.
- The immunomodulating properties of Echinacea extract alone, and of Echinacea/goldenseal extract blends, combine to offer benefits to both the cellular and the humoral immune systems.
- Goldenseal is a rich source of berberine and other alkaloids possessing antimicrobial effects, especially against intestinal microorganisms (Planta Med 2001;67:561-4; Antibiotics 1976;3:577-88).
- The gastrointestinal antiinflammatory, antisecretory and antimicrobial effects of berberine are effective in normalizing intestinal function and transit time (Altern Med Rev 1997;2:94-103)
- Animal studies have found the specific combination of Echinacea and goldenseal stimulates the humoral immune system to produce immunoglobulins (Immunol Lett 1999;68:391-5).
- Several micronutrients, including vitamin A and C, beta-carotene, folic acid, copper and zinc, play vital roles in supporting normal immune function (Br J Nutr 2001;85:S75-80; Am J Clin Nutr 1997;66:460S-463S).
