Active Ingredient Description:
Echinacea
Administered in times of need, this helpful ally can assist the body's immune system in treating a wide range of disorders. There has been some doubt over the ability of the body to absorb the medicinally active ingredients orally (intravenous injections being considered the only effective way to administer the plant), but recent research has demonstrated significant absorption from orally administered applications. *
Nettles
Nettle's purported anti-inflammatory effects have been repeatedly confirmed by modern research over the past ten years. It is particularly effective in treating allergic rhinitis, relieving nearly all the symptoms of itchy, watery eyes, sneezing and runny nose. It also has performed better than the prescription drug furosemide in reducing blood pressure, increasing urine output as a diuretic and increasing salt excretion. It also seems to be effective in reducing pain and producing a sedative effect.
The leaf...shows some promise in boosting immune system function and is an effective treatment for many skin conditions. *
Special Notes: This immune booster was designed to help fight sickness, especially during times people fall most victim: stress, emotional imbalance, travel, and reduced nutrition. It was especially designed to fight colds and give relief from their symptoms.
