Why echinacea root? Echinacea is prized for its ability to help ward off viruses such as cold & flu. Part of how it does this is by stimulating white blood cell production and phagocytic activity. Phagocytosis means “to devour” and is an immune response which involves the engulfing and destruction of microorganisms as well as damaged/old cells and other cellular debris. This is a major way the immune system removes various pathogens, bacteria, and cellular waste. Echinacea also stimulates respiratory activity and supports lymph flow--helping to invigorate the body's ability to clear cellular debris .
