Supports Healthy Immune Response
Supports Immune Functions at Onset of Seasonal Stressors
Maintains a Healthy Inflammatory Response to Seasonal Stressors
Echinacea angustifolia promotes healthy drainage of the lymphatic system, among other immune-supporting functions. The exact mechanism of E. angustifolia’s effect on the mucosal membranes has not been fully understood until recently. Research conducted by Gaia Herbs and several institutions and Universities has elucidated compounds that have restructured our understanding of how Echinacea works. These compounds are called RxA Factors and represent the alkylamide fractions known as isobutlyamides.*
RxA Factors are found in the roots of E. angustifolia and purpurea and also in the mature ripe seed of E. purpurea. RxA Factors help maintain a healthy inflammatory response. RxA Factors support the tissues of the sinuses and throat that are exposed to airborne stressors and balance an acutely challenged immune system. Both the pre-inflammatory chemical messengers Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha and the RxA factors found in Echinacea compete for the same receptor sites known as canabanoid 2 (CB-2) receptors. When Echinacea is taken at the same time TNF alpha is activated by sinus and respiratory challenges, RxA factors successfully bind to CB-2 receptors and effectively inhibit the uptake of TNF alpha thus promoting a healthy inflammatory response.*
