Introduction:
Echinacea is widely cultivated in Europe, but originates from North America. There, it was used for snake, dog, and insect bites. It was also credited with blood-purifying properties. Today, Echinacea is primarily used as an immunomodulatory herb. Considering experience and traditional use, Echinacea is particularly well-suited for use in areas where resistance is weakened due to increased levels of toxins in the blood. This is often recognizable by skin problems such as boils and abscesses.
Primary indications:
- Immunomodulatory
Echinacea primarily improves the quality of the immune system. Echinacea is indicated when it can be assumed that the decrease in immunity is related to excessive toxins in the blood. It is also very effective for various forms of flu and colds and is particularly suitable for ENT and bronchial infections, as well as respiratory infections. The tingling taste is also indicative of this, stimulating the immune system and opening the airways.
Secondary indications:
- Blood purifying
Helps purify the blood. For skin problems such as boils and abscesses. Open wounds that don't heal properly. Bites from insects, snakes, or other creatures that can infect and/or poison the blood.
Warnings:
- Don't use continuously, but always administer in periods of about three weeks, followed by a week's break. Continue if desired to avoid exhausting the immune system.
- If there is an allergy to other asteraceae, an allergic reaction can also occur with Echinacea
