Echinacea-Goldenseal with Olive Leaf
Herbal Formula Supports Immune Resistance
Echinacea and goldenseal are the two most relied-upon botanicals for winter
health. Echinacea reigns supreme as North America's primary immune-enhancing
botanical. This combination is further enhanced by the addition of European
olive leaf plus other key Western and Chinese botanicals such as garlic, isatis,
and andrographis.
Echinacea Supports Immune Resistance
Research by scientists worldwide is validating echinacea's many traditional
uses. Echinacea's benefits have been linked to three primary constituent groups:
caffeic acid derivatives (including cichoric acid), polysaccharides, and lipophilic
(fat-soluble) compounds. Most research on echinacea has focused on its ability
to support immune function, and specifically, to enhance the activity of macrophages
- white blood cells that engulf and digest foreign particles in our bodies.
Macrophage activity is an integral part of the immune response and of a person's
innate general immune resistance.
Goldenseal: Traditional Winter Botanical
Goldenseal was used primarily by Native Americans along the East Coast of the
United States. Beginning in the 1830's and continuing for decades, it was cited
in such authoritative sources as the United States Dispensatory, the United
States Pharmacopoeia and the National Formulary. Goldenseal's benefits are primarily
associated with its high concentration of the alkaloid berberine.
