The Organic Echinacea Tincture is made with fresh UK grown Echinacea purpurea (whole plant) in organic alcohol.
The Echinacea species are perennial herbs native to Midwestern North America although they grow well in the UK and North European climates. Of the nine species, E. Angustifolia, E. Purpurea, and E. Pallida are the most commonly used. Historically, Echinacea has been used by the American Indians for more illnesses than any other plant.
Echinacea contains three major groups of constituents that may work together, including alkylamides/polyacetylenes, caffeic acid derivatives, and polysaccharides.
Herbs have been used traditionally in every culture throughout history and there has been considerable scientific research over recent years to identify the properties of these plant extracts. There are many different ways of consuming herbs and Viridian offers organic tinctures, organic whole herb powders and standardised extracts.
