There are many species of plant in the Echinacea family but the activity resides in the E. angustifolia and E. purpurea species- although some preparations may be adulterated. with Parthenium integrifolium which has no -activity. Used in the 1800s by settlers in the American West, who learned of it from the native Indians, it:was used -for the treatment of dizziness, rat- tlesnake bites, headaches, sore throats and as an antiseptic. Echina- cea was very popular up until the mid -1930s when sulfa drugs were discovered but it is making a come -back. However today. research is showing it to be an "immune -system boost- er". European studies are showing that the herb does stimulate macro- phages which are infection -fighting white blood cells. It's usually not taken routinely Many people take echinacea at the first sign of a cold and feel that it shortens the duration .and severity of the infection. It's available in drop and "capsule formulations. itHURON APOTHECARY Ltd. Phone 235-1982 440: Main St., Exeter "Your Health Care Pharmacy" sues II ..•Sea.•ea•a......::1NI N 1:11182:1111:11111 .
