Dr. Christopher’s formula is an effective blend of echinacea angustifolia and goldenseal that contains a whole bunch of medicinal substances with anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antifungal, and, finally, immunomodulating properties. In some cases, these substances are proved to be more powerful than conventional synthetic drugs. The herbs in the formula contain many essential micro-and macro-elements such as iron, zinc, selenium, silver, manganese, essential oils, betaine, phytosterols and various organic acids (palmitic, linoleic), as well as specific biologically active substances.
The main active ingredients that have immunomodulatory activity are polysaccharides. They reportedly stimulate the activity of macrophages - white blood cells that absorb bacteria, viruses in the body cells. Moreover, polysaccharides contribute to the increased production of T-lymphocytes, thus they can fight help fight off illneses or reduce their symptoms.
Glycosides are other substances in the formulation that have a cortisone-like activity. This effect is related to the ability of these substances to inhibit the activity of the enzyme hyaluronidase, which accounts for specific anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effect is explained by hydroxycinnamic acids in the plants.
Despite the fact that the composition of Echinacea and Goldenseal has been thoroughly studied, they still hide many secrets. For example, recent studies showed that Echinacea contains powerful antioxidants and has antibacterial and antiviral properties. Echinacea extracts are known to inhibit the growth and development of streptococci, E. coli, viruses. It can be used as a restorative tool and as an auxiliary supplement to support the body when chronic sickness is present.
