On Orders Over £55Echinacea is sourced from an American plant that belongs to the daisy family. Medicinally, North Americans have used echinacea for hundreds of years to boost the Immune System and reduce the number and severity of colds. Our wide range of echinacea products come from some of the best natural and organic brands, such as A. Vogel, Viridian Nutrition and AquaSol Tea.

Echinacea pills, like A.Vogel Echinaforce Echinacea Chewable 80 Tablets, are usually taken at the first sign of a cold, in the hope that it will prevent a cold from further developing.
