I just wanted to let you know not everyone should take echinacea and I agree with Eastern Priest that you should tell your MD of all herbal remedies taken. Echinacea builds up toxins that can be harmful when antibiotics are added.
Also not everyone should try it. I have Lupus and it strips away to many of the few natural immunities I have. If you take B/P medications they will be lessened by it also.
I will look up more on this and add it because I cant remember the children side effects but I do know there is a warning out about giving it to anyone under 14.
