Good product, seems to actually work
I’m usually skeptical of herbal remedies. Many of them don’t seem to work well, or at all. However, I definitely have noticed a difference when taking these Echinacea pills. Once I feel a cold or flu coming on, I start taking the recommended dosage, and I usually start feeling better much more quickly. They’re NOT a miracle pill. You won’t be up and running around like a hyperactive 5 year old the next day. But instead of feeling terrible for 10 days, you might be mostly back to normal in 5 or 6. Or an annoying cold that would leave you with a chapped nose and sore throat will be more subdued, with some minor sniffles and drainage.For many years I used over the counter cold and flu meds, but those often left me feeling dopey and uncoordinated. My wife is big into herbal though, and there are a few things that really seem to help, and work better than the ‘miracle in a bottle’ solutions pushed by all the pharmacies:1. Echinacea – Definitely seems to reduce the severity of my symptoms and sometimes shorten the duration by a few days. I like the NOW brand. They just seem to work a bit better than the stuff at the local grocery or pharmacy chain.2. Ginger tea with honey – The real thing made with fresh ginger root, not sure about the powders. This seems to help reduce sore throat and drainage. A bit of fresh lemon juice seems to help too, and the flavor is nice.3. Fresh veggie juice – Fresh raw veggie juice gives you a nice energy boost and gets your body the nutrients it needs to fight infection. Vitamin pills are OK, but there really seems to be some truth to the talk of enzymes from the raw foods helping you stay healthy. And I know, kale, spinach, or beet juice sounds nasty, and they really are if you try them on their own. The trick is to mix your greens with some carrots or apples, and definitely at least half a lemon. The lemon in particular almost completely covers the ‘grass clippings’ flavor of the greens. Oh, and get a decent juicer so you don’t have to deal with gritty or slushy juice. I use a Breville, but they’re pricey. Maybe try a GE one if you can’t afford the more expensive models. They seem to be well constructed and have a good quality filter screen.

Magic
My go-to echinacea brand. The pill size is easy to swallow and doesn’t taste or smell bad. I take it at the first sign of sickness & it works wonders!

take this when I feel like I’m getting sick.
A good and reliable brand. I only take this product when I’m not feeling well. I don’t use these vitamins in my everyday routine. But when I feel like I’m starting to get sick, I take them. To be honest, I don’t know if they help or not, because I usually take a lot of different vitamins at the same time when I’m getting sick. A friend originally recommended them to me — she said they help her immune system. I can’t say much more than that. I just hope they’re helping my immune system too.

Love NOW
This brand never disappoints. Echinacea and a so good for many reasons. I use it for immune boost. When I get to feeling like something is coming on I take a few extras for a few days and thankfully nothing crazy came on. No taste. Easy to swallow and no side effects.

Best echinacea supplement I’ve ever tried
Best echinecea supplement I’ve ever tried. I can definitely tell it’s used with the most effecaceous parts of the plant — instead of having to take three or four pills to see a minimal effect, I can take one, and maybe another one later on in the day, and feel better.As such, it may be twice the price as the really cheap brands, but it’s DEFINITELY worth it, because it has double the potency (and possibly more than that).Echinacea is the best thing for preventing and recovering quickly from illness. I’ve been using it as a supplement for years whenever I was sick, and I only recently started taking one pill every day to prevent getting sick entirely. So far, it seems to work very well.
