Echinacea Triple 1:2.1 A blend of three forms of Echinacea, helpful to those with colds, flu, immune deficiency and infections. 1 fl oz - Product Code: 56994 1 fl oz Alcohol Free - Product Code: 57052 Who will benefit from this supplement? The indications for Phyto-Tech™ Echinacea Triple are basically the same for Echinacea. This product is designed for those who prefer a combination of the three different forms of Echinacea to maximize the efficacy and “diversify” some of the active constituents. Echinacea, of course, is best known as an immune builder for immune deficiency and for its ability to prevent or ameliorate an upcoming cold, flu or infection when used at the first sign of the condition. The larger doses shown below reflect this purpose. Echinacea is not thought to kill microbes by itself. Instead, it stimulates the immune system to do it. It supports the healthy innate immune response. This is why one does not need to be apprehensive about taking Echinacea in the presence of auto-immune disorders. Ingredients: Phyto-Tech™ Echinacea Triple contains fresh Echinacea angustifolia Root, fresh Echinacea purpurea flowers, dry Echinacea angustifolia root, fresh Ginger root, pure grain alcohol and purified water. Dosage: Acute: 3-5 droperfulls and up to 1 teaspoon (5-6 dropperfuls) every 2-3 hours when on the edge of illness. Long Term Tonic: 30-90 drops, 1-3 times per day or as needed, in juice or water. Elderberry Recent research shows this herb may be especially effective for those with influenza virus infections. 1 fl oz - Product Code: 57026 Who can benefit from this supplement? • Those who suffer from influenza and similar viral infections, as well as those with cardiovascular disease and vision problems. Elderberry is rich in flavonoids, anthocyanins and other phyto-antioxidants. Phyto-Tech™ Elderberry supplies one of the most effective herbs to use against the flu. Studies suggest this herb shortens the duration of flu symptoms, such as fever, fatigue, headache, sore throat, cough and body aches. Elderberry has proven to be effective agains numerous strains of influenza. Elderberry can be used during an active flu episode (combined, perhaps, with Oregano Oil, Echinacea- Goldenseal, or Phyto-Tech™ Immune Acute Complex). It can also be used as a preventative to avoid getting sick during the flu season. Elderberry 1:2 liquid extract is a very concentrated source of anthocyanins, the purple pigments that function as powerful antioxidants, along with the flavonoids quercetin and rutin, vitamin A and vitamin C. The extract can be taken on a long term basis to increase one’s resistance to illness and help rebuild a strong immune response. Elderberry also benefits the cardiovascular system. Those with poor night vision will be helped by Elderberry, as it is thought to help regenerate rhosopsin, the pigment in the retina that is responsible for both the formation of the photoreceptor cells . . . continued on page 44 Product Reference Guide: Willner Chemists Phyto-Tech™ Herbal Supplements Important Notice: The information given here is designed to help you make informed decisions about your health, and the proper use of dietary supplements.

Pycnogenol Eased Symptoms in Fibromyalgia Y oung children are often susceptible to upper respiratory infection—the common cold. In this study, doctors gave 21 healthy children, aged 13 to 36 months, lactobacillus acidophilus plus bifidobacterium animalis at five-billion colony-forming units per day. Before the study, and after 30 days, doctors took blood samples of a type of immune cell that is particularly susceptible to viral infection and exposed the cells to a respiratory virus-like molecule. After probiotics, the immune response of these cells was more balanced and significantly less inflammatory than before. Reference: Beneficial Microbes; 2021, Vo. 12, No. 1, 85-93 Probiotics Improve Lung Immune Function in Kids P eople with fibromyalgia report having generalized pain, tender muscles and tendons, reduced movement, and poor sleep. Doctors don’t know its cause—describing the condition as “idiopathic.” In this study, 50 otherwise healthy women with fibromyalgia, and body-mass index scores below 26, took a placebo or 150 mg of Pycnogenol® per day along with standard medical care of pain relievers and corticosteroids. At the start of the study, all participants had high levels of oxidative stress, an inflammatory condition. After four weeks, doctors found significantly less oxidative stress in those taking Pycnogenol, while levels did not change for placebo. Three in the Pycnogenol group needed pain relievers, and one needed corticosteroids, while nine in the placebo group took pain relievers and six needed corticosteroids. Those in the Pycnogenol group reported less stiffness, pain, fatigue, cognitive disturbances, and mental cloudiness. Also, symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, migraine, and perceived stress were lower for Pycnogenol.
