Feature Summary
Anti-Viral Formula provides a synergistic combination of five clinically validated herbal extracts, standardized to ensure optimal potency and effectiveness. ECHINAMIDE is 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. ECHINAMIDE stimulates the non-specific immune system, increasing total leukocyte, neutrophil, monocyte, and natural killer cell counts. Its alkylamides have both anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects, in part by binding to cannabinoid receptors on immune cells. The polysaccharides and polyphenols induce cell-mediated immunity and help stabilize secretory IgA levels. While meta-analyses typically support the use of echinacea as an anti-viral, standardization of its key components is essential to ensure clinical benefit.
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 signaling molecule for influenza and other viral infections. 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. The broad anti-viral and adaptogenic properties of these herbs support their combined use for optimizing immune function and supporting upper respiratory health.

Contraindications
Has not been thoroughly evaluated for use during pregnancy, and should be avoided. Echinacea products are contraindicated in those requiring immune suppression (such as organ transplant recipients), and should be used with caution in those with autoimmune disease. Individuals with atopy are more likely to have a hypersensitivity to echinacea. Licorice consumption should be carefully monitored in those with hypertension and/or hypokalemia.
Drug Interactions
No known drug interactions exist. Echinacea has been shown to reduce the required steroid dosage in inflammatory conditions and to improve the efficacy of anti-fungal treatments for infection with Candida sp. , , Echinacea is also a weak inhibitor of CYP1A2 and minor inducer of CYP3A4, and may have slight effects on drugs metabolized through these pathways. Lomatium contains coumarin compounds and may theoretically potentiate anticoagulants.
