Avena Botanicals Extra Echinacea - 1 oz

Avena Botanicals Extra Echinacea supports a healthy immune and lymphatic system.*
 
Several Echinacea species are native to the prairies of what now is called "North America", and have long been valued and traded by various Indigenous peoples (herbalist Deb Soule highly recommends the book, Iwigara: The Kinship of Plants and People by Enrique Salmon). Echinacea encourages a healthy immune response, supports the respiratory system, and benefits skin health. Oftentimes, Echinacea preparations focus solely on the root. Extra Echinacea combines the flowers, leaves, and roots, creating a dynamic blend for deep immune system support that embodies the properties and vitality of this whole plant. Extra Echinacea also contains the flower essence of Echinacea, which offers support to the more subtle and emotional aspects of immune resilience.
 
Echinacea also supports a healthy lymphatic system, an aspect of the immune system. Extra Echinacea may be used as a lymphatic tonic as well as immune support as needed. And even though this incredible plant is best known as an ally for healthy immune function, Echinacea can also be worked with in small amounts over time to support a healthy microbiome. Our Echinacea products leave a pleasant tingling sensation on the tongue, which is a sign of an excellent Echinacea preparation.
 
Garden Notes: Our Biodynamic garden grows hundreds of Echinacea plants with beautiful magenta cone flowers, delighting bees, birds, and butterflies alike. During the summer, we hand-harvest the flowers and leaves and immediately tincture them into organic alcohol. In the fall, we dig three-year-old Echinacea roots by hand and tincture them fresh. We then combine our root, leaf, and flower tinctures together, creating our potent Extra Echinacea blend.
