Echinacea
One of the most popular herbs today is the Native American plant called Echinacea. Several species of the Echinacea plant are used to make medicine from its leaves, flowers and root.

Echinacea is widely used to fight infections, especially the common cold and other upper respiratory infections. Some people take Echinacea at the first sign of a cold, hoping they will be able to keep the cold from developing. Other people take Echinacea after cold symptoms have started, hoping they can make symptoms less severe.

Echinacea contains active substances that enhance the activity of the immune system, relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and have hormonal, antiviral and antioxidant effects. For this reason, professional herbalists may recommend Echinacea to treat urinary tract infections, vaginal yeast (Candida) infections, ear infections, athletes foot, hay fever as well as slow healing wounds.

Vitamin C
The body is not able to make Vitamin C on its own, and it does not store Vitamin C. It is therefore important to include plenty of Vitamin C in your daily diet.

Vitamin C plays an important role in maintaining proper immune function and resistance to infection.

Vitamin C is needed for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of the body. It is most often used for preventing and treating the common cold. Some people use it for skin infections, bronchitis, gum disease, stomach ulcers. It is also used for infections of the bladder and prostate.

Vitamin C is one of many antioxidants. Antioxidants are nutrients that block some of the damage caused by free radicals.
