Golden Seal Root is well known as natures antibiotic, stopping infection and poisons in the body. It is very helpful in reducing swelling and stopping internal bleeding, while healing mucus membrane, catarrhal conditions anywhere in the body and at the same time will tone and sustain venous circulation. When Echinacea is added to Golden Seal, we have a most potent and effective formula especially when the Echinacea is Angustifolia, known as the king of the echinaceas. Also, Angustifolia is a lot more expensive than the #2 purpurea species. There are seven known species in the Echinacea family. Studies show that echinaceas are helpful for fevers, colds, sore throat, and infections. Golden Seal is even more effective. However Echinacea leads in other ways such as benefiting and helping the immune system, has cortisone like effects, helps the lymph system to carry waste away from infection, and has some anti-inflammatory effects. Another immunostimulating property of the plant is its ability to help T-Cell activity. The echinacosides in Echinacea have antibiotic activity against streptococcus and staphylococcus, bacterial infections and are protectors to the thymus gland. Our Golden Seal-Echinacea concentrate is the highest quality. Simply mix 20 or more drops in 2 oz. of liquid as often as needed. Adding buffered Vitamin C is also recommended.
