Feature Summary
Anti-Viral Formula provides a synergistic combination of five clinically validated herbal extracts, standardized to ensure optimal potency and effectiveness. ECHINAMIDEis a well-established formulation of organically grown Echinacea purpurea, triple-standardized to the key constituents (alkylamides, cichoric acid, and polysaccharides) shown to enhance immune function, and demonstrated to significantly reduce symptoms of the common cold in randomized clinical trials.1 ECHINAMIDEstimulates the non-specific immune system, increasing total leukocyte, neutrophil, monocyte, and natural killer cell counts.2 Its alkylamides have both anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects, in part by binding to cannabinoid receptors on immune cells.3 The polysaccharides and polyphenols induce cell-mediated immunity and help stabilize secretory IgA levels.4 While meta-analyses typically support the use of echinacea as an anti-viral, standardization of its key components is essential to ensure clinical benefit.5,6

This potent anti-viral formula also includes lomatium and reishi mushroom extracts, anti-viral plants with a long history of traditional use. Reishi contains triterpenoids that inhibit both viral penetration into the cell as well as viral replication, and lomatium has in-vitro inhibitory effects on rotavirus and blocks production of CXCL10, a key signalling molecule for influenza and other viral infections.7,8,9 Echinacea, licorice, and astragalus extracts have all been shown to upregulate CD25 production and to act synergistically to induce greater CD69 expression, both indicators of immune cell activation and regulation.10,11 The broad anti-viral and adaptogenic properties of these herbs support their combined use for optimizing immune function and supporting upper respiratory health.
