The Immune-Boosting Power of Echinacea.
According to VeryWellHealth.com echinacea has been used as a remedy for conditions such as toothaches, stomach pain, snake bites, skin disorders, chronic arthritis, and in the fight against different cancers.
Echinacea’s major effect on the immune system is its stimulation of white blood cell production. This in turn helps to purify the blood, and protect us from infections.
I always suggest that echinacea is more an “immune BOOSTER”, kinda like kicking our immune system into gear; whereas other herbs, such as Astragalus, are more into BUILDING the immune system.
The Tried-and-True Wellness Formula
One of the best and easiest ways to get yourself tuned-up for the winter season is by taking a nutritional supplement that combines all the goodies in ONE or TWO tablets.
And though I don’t endorse one company over another, nor am I endorsed by a specific vitamin line-of-products with these daily Health Pearls, there is ONE formula that has stood up to its name for about 40 years!!
I wish you WELL…NESS!
Beta-Carotene And Alpha-Carotene Use In Cancer Studies
Plenty of research continues to be done on cancers. Several of those studies focused on the cancer-preventive potential of Vitamin A and its precursors, Alpha-Carotene and Beta-Carotene. The latter has been studied widely as a promising chemo-preventive agent in reducing the risk of cancer in humans.
Not many people know that daily supplementation with carotenes has shown tumor reducing activities in specific cancers, such as oral cavity, head and neck, as well as colon.
