Exceptional Echinacea, Extraordinary Results
Since it was first introduced into American Medicine by Native Americans in the late 1800’s, Echinacea has been one of the most widely used herbs on this continent. With modern research, scientists worldwide are validating the many ways in which Echinacea can strengthen the body’s defenses. Echinacea’s popularity continues to grow — it is one of the most useful herbs to keep on hand for household use.
Obtaining freshly harvested material is essential because Echinacea plants rapidly lose their potency when exposed to heat and light. Once powdered, they can lose their strength in as little as six months.
Our harvesters send us whole roots of the current season’s Echinacea. The roots are custom powdered, tableted or extracted immediately, and placed in tightly sealed, light-proof or amber bottles. This insures that every bit of Echinacea potency is maintained. When properly prepared, Echinacea can remain vitally potent for years.
Full Spectrum™ Fresh Echinacea Extract
Many of our customers have told us that this is the best Echinacea product they have ever experienced. It is definitely one of the finest Echinacea products ever produced. Modern researchers have discovered different levels of activity in different parts of the Echinacea plant. The roots contain rich amounts of isobutylamides, which give Echinacea its characteristic tingle. The fresh leaves contain the highest amount of polysaccharides, which have powerful strengthening effects on the system, while the seeds provide a wide range of defense-enhancing activity. However, the key to Echinacea’s effectiveness is in the quality and potency of the material that is being used. That is why we are so particular about the Echinacea that we use. We receive the ingredients for our Full Spectrum Fresh Echinacea Extract from two places: Echinacea angustifolia and Echinacea pallida are freshly wild-crafted in their natural habitat, while our Echinacea purpurea is certified organically grown in the rich mountain soil of Washington state.
The plants are air-shipped to us and immediately extracted, preserving the maximum amount of Echinacea activity. Plus, we use twice as much plant material as is used in most commercial tinctures.
