Echinacea is a powerful herb for boosting the immune system, killing bacteria, purifying blood, stimulating the growth of new tissue and reducing inflammation. It assists in wound healing and inflammatory conditions of the ligaments, cartilage, joints and skin. Other benefits include supporting oral health, blood sugar levels, pain relief and the lymphatic system.
Best known for fighting colds, flu, and other upper respiratory infections, Echinacea is best used at the onset of an illness, not as a preventative, and should not be used for a prolonged period of time.
Traditionally it was used by the Great Plains Indian tribes for a variety of issues, including sore throats, coughs, toothaches, snake bites, cleaning and disinfecting wounds, reducing inflammation, gastrointestinal upset and as a painkiller. It was used to treat their animals, as well.
Echinacea’s anti-infective properties aid in purifying blood. It enhances detoxification and stimulates the immune system, increasing white blood cells and T-cells, which fight off both internal and external infection.
Echinacea promotes hyaluronic acid production, stimulating the growth of new tissue and reducing inflammation, making it beneficial for wound healing, as well as, inflammatory conditions of the ligaments, cartilage, joints and skin issues, such as acne, boils, eczema and psoriasis.
Other health benefits include supporting oral health, supporting healthy blood sugar levels, reducing inflammation, pain relief, cleansing the lymphatic system, and helping with enlargement of the prostate gland.
