Winter is around the corner. The weather has begun to turn nasty in many parts of the country already. School has begun and with all this comes germs. Lots of them. Mainly cold and flu germs that get spread quickly. You can’t seem to keep ahead of them.
One way you can help fight colds and flu is with Echinacea. This is a medicinal plant that has been used for hundreds of years like a general cure-all for everything from infections to diptheria. Once antibiotics were developed, then the use of this herb declined.
Today, however, it is used to help boost the immune system and shorten the length of your cold or flu. It’s best taken as soon as you feel the symptoms coming on. Symptoms like a cough or sore throat. Studies have show that Echinacea can help relieve pain and reduce inflammation. It has been shown to shorten the length and severity of cold symptoms.
Swiss Natural produces a certified organic 1200mg capsule of Echinacea. The bottle retails for approx $12.99 and contains 120 capsules. It has a shelf life of 3 years and can be taken up to 2 or 3 times a day.

I’m a firm believer in vitamins and health preventitive measures.
