A.Vogel Echinaforce Mode of Action using Echinacea purpurea

Why Echinaforce Works

A recent study carried out by Dr Brinkeborn on the organic fresh herb tincture, Echinaforce, has shown very positive results. Brinkeborn found that those using Echinaforce experienced a 63% reduction in their cold and flu symptoms compared to 29% in the placebo group.

So why does Echinaforce work?

Bioforce, the fresh herb tincture manufacturer created by Alfred Vogel in 1963, and researchers from a leading Swiss University, ETH, recently discovered Echinacea purpurea�s mode of action. They have found that the Alkylamides within the herb modulate the action of the immune system, making it more efficient in recognising and eliminating infective organisms such as viruses and bacteria.

Earlier research carried out by Dr Martin Tobler has shown that fresh herb tinctures like Echinaforce contain up to 2.5 times more Alkylamides than extracts made from dried herbs as Alkylamides, being volatile, are lost in the drying process.

Alfred Vogel pioneered fresh herbal tinctures as he was convinced that herbal medicines made from freshly harvested herbs are more effective, an opinion now confirmed by research.
