Echinacea Cold Relief: 30 soft caps

Product Information

Echinacea is one of the most widely used traditional herbal medicines in the UK, and for the most part it doesn't need a formal introduction. But just incase you haven't heard about Echinacea's powerful healing qualities, we here at Vitamins Direct will attempt to enlighten you on the historical effectiveness of the benefits obtained from our high quality Echinacea Cold Relief soft gels.

You have the Native Americans of the Great Plains (in the United States) to thank for discovering the amazing healing qualities of echinacea. They used this herb as a remedy for snakebites and other skin wounds, toothaches, and sore throats. Echinacea was later adopted by early European settlers, and word of echinacea's healing properties traveled back to Europe in the 1930s, where it has become one of the highest sought after and best researched herbs. It has since been determined that echinacea is nearly a miracle answer to ailments such as:

• The common cold
• The Flu
• Viral Infections
• Bacterial Infections
• Kidney Infections
• Urinary Tract Infections
• Bronchitis
• Cold Sores
• And, Ear Infections

Also known as the purple or prairie coneflower, or black-eyed susan, echinacea (pronounced ek-in-nay-sha) is a flower with daisy-like purple blossoms, a flowering plant that grows wild throughout northern America and is grown as a medicinal herb in thousands of gardens in Europe. The name echinacea is derived from the Greek word for prickly hedgehog referring to the sharp pointed scales on the dried flower heads.

There are nine species of echinacea, but only three are commonly used in traditional herbal medicines: E.angustifolia, E.purpurea and E. pallida. Echinacea Cold Relief is a blend of only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients E.purpurea, maltodextrin, precipitated silicone dioxide, and citric acid monohydrate delivered via an oval, green-coloured softgel capsule.

Echinacea Cold Relief has been assessed by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for quality, and its safety profile has been reviewed. It is registered by MHRA {THR no.18397/0003}, allowing it to be sold for the relief of symptoms associated with the common cold and influenza type infections, based on traditional use only.

Echinacea is one of the most popular herbal products sold in the UK. The popularity of echinacea means that it is one plant that has undergone a number of clinical trials. As far as we know there are no serious echinacea side effects, and few (if any) adverse reactions. However, if you are allergic to daisies, you will want to check with your doctor before taking echinacea. We also recommend checking with your doctor if you are planning to take echinacea alongside any prescription medications or if you are currently pregnant or breast feeding.

When ordering your supply of Echinacea Cold Relief, we invite you to also try our immune boosting supplement, Rozip! Each Rozip capsule contains 400mg of rosehip extract. Rosehips are the fruit of the rose bush and one of nature's richest sources of vitamin C, an important nutrient that our bodies need every day.
