This is our corner stone immune product made with high quality New Zealand grown Echinacea, Liquorice and Mānuka Honey. Echinature® should be taken daily, as a preventative product to maintain a stronger immune system. It is not solely a winter product and can be taken all year round.
If you are already unwell with a cold or flu, Echinature® could shorten the duration of your illness and aid recovery. If you are already suffering, increase the dose to four times a day for the duration of the illness.
