Immune-Boost Supplement Blend with Echinacea

This simple echinacea supplement blend offers a healthy dose of vitamins and minerals to support your body as echinacea propels your system into self-defense mode. This blend makes a great addition to smoothies, yogurt, or even a cup of soup. You could also use it to fill capsules to keep in your purse, locker, workout bag or desk for those unpredictable times when coworkers, fellow students, athletes, or customers who are coming down with illness insist on soldiering on in your presence. Be sure to follow up for a few days with echinacea teas or more supplement several times a day for at least two or three days until you’re sure you’re in the clear.

Get your echinacea root from a responsible, sustainable source. Echinacea was harvested to near extinction in its natural habitat in the last century. Since then, a goodly number of farms have begun growing echinacea sustainably, offering us all access to echinacea’s medicine without harming his presence in the wilderness.
