I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse and i can tell you that its a lot safer that having inoculations for diseases. It puts a barrier round your immune systems thus boosts it. It should only be taken for short periods at a time, You can take it in the winter months to stop colds etc and when you are ill to speed recovery, I give it to my older patients and also give them garlic this also aids the immune system and keeps the blood flowing. I grow this plant

Echinacea is a flower native to the Americas and increases the production of white blood cells (leukocytes) in the body that attack viruses and bacteria. It is safe if you do not exceed the recommended dosage and also some brands will tell you to take a 2-week break at some point (I think after three months) as it has been suggested that continual usage may eventually weaken the immune system when you stop taking it.

It's a herbal remedy used to boost the immune system. My friend's little boy had a weak immune system and benefited from it. I use it in the very early stages of a cold. Warning: it can taste pretty bad though!
