Organic Echinacea Elder supports the immune system by stimulating immune cells, helping to reduce the duration of symptoms. It also promotes perspiration (a normal response to seasonal change conditions) which helps to release toxins through the skin. Our laboratory studies have shown that it significantly produces and activates immune cells.
How does it taste? It's a blend of sweet, fruity and slightly bitter herbal tastes with a characteristic tingle on your tongue caused by the alkylamides in echinacea, which is one of the important indicators of quality.
