| Overview
Echinacea's rising popularity is built on its excellent reputation as an immune enhancer. It is often used to help prevent a cold or flu by taking the herb throughout cold and flu season. Many studies also found that echinacea (when taken at the first sign of a cold for 8 to 10 days) reduced cold symptoms or shortened their duration. It acts as supportive therapy in the treatment of colds, flus, upper respiratory infections and urinary infections; it is also traditionally used for the relief of sore throat due to colds. Echinacea Plus is handy during the cold and flu season.
