Natural Factors Echinamide Anti-Cold Fresh Herb Tincture is a liquid echinacea extract with 1000 mg of ECHINAMIDE in each 1 mL. Used in Herbal Medicine to help fight off infections, especially of the upper respiratory tract.
What is Echinamide?
ECHINAMIDE is the Natural Factors name for its extract of Echinacea purpurea, the purple coneflower. This tall, daisy-like plant is native to North America and has a long history in herbal practice there. The tincture is prepared from certified organic plants, using both the aerial parts (leaves, stems and flowers) and the root, as a 1:1 liquid extract. A 1:1 ratio means each millilitre of liquid represents one gram of herb.

The extract of Echinacea purpurea is my favorite supplement during the cold and flu season. Liquid extract works much better than capsules or tablets. It has a good amount of active component in one dosage 1000 mg. It keeps my immune system healthy.
