Echinacea is an immune stimulant. As a
result of this, it has anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antibacterial
activity associated with the polysaccharide and polyacetylene
components present in the plant.
These constituents mobilise our defence
mechanism by activating and stimulating the release of leucocytes
(white blood cells) which fight infection.
The function of T-lymphycytes is
enhanced and there is an increase in the number of macrophages, which
destroy foreign materials.
Echinacin, a polysaccharide, promotes
wound healing by inhibiting the enzyme hyaluronidase.
This helps to promote the growth of new
tissue, activating fibroblasts which are the cells responsible for
encouraging wound healing.
Three varieties of Echinacea have been
used by Phytotherapists. Bauer, the German Phytotherapy researcher,
found that these species have differing activities. Using experimental
methods which measure immune stimulation, he found that alcoholic
extracts of Echinacea purpurea gave the greatest activity, followed by
alcoholic extracts of Echinacea angustifolia and Echinacea pallida,
which were 65% less active.

Herbs
For thousands of years, herbs have been used to help maintain many aspects of
health and wellness. Today, research and technology are bringing herbalism into
the modern age – with improved extraction, standardization, and farming
methods. Clinical studies are beginning to validate herbal therapies, so even
some in the medical community are starting to accept them.
Many of today’s
medicines were originally derived from botanicals. Aspirin once came from the
white willow tree, quinine from the bark of the cinchona tree, and digitalis
from foxglove. Herbs are still the basis for Chinese medicine and are important
constituents of many European natural remedies. As Hippocrates said, “Let they
food by thy medicine, thy medicine be thy food”.
Some of the herbs
available on this site are wild-crafted – grown in the wild – while others
are meticulously cultivated on herb farms.
