Echinacea
Uses
Parts Used & Where Grown
Echinacea is a wildflower native to North America. While echinacea continues to grow and is harvested from the wild, the majority used for herbal supplements comes from cultivated plants. The root and/or the above-ground part of the plant during the flowering growth phase are used in herbal medicine.
Our proprietary “Star-Rating” system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
3 StarsReliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
2 StarsContradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
1 StarFor an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
| Used for | Why |
|---|---|
2 Stars Common Cold 3 to 5 ml of liquid herbal extracts every two hours, or 300 to 600 mg of powdered herb three times daily, or five to six cups of tea daily | At the first sign of a cold, taking immune-stimulating echinacea as a juice or tincture may make colds less severe. Double-blind trials have shown that various echinacea extracts shorten the duration of the common cold. Fresh pressed juice of (E. purpurea) flowers preserved with alcohol, and tinctures of echinacea (E. pallida) root are the forms most commonly studied and proven effective. In addition, several double-blind trials have found that echinacea (E. angustifolia) root tinctures in combination with wild indigo, boneset, and homeopathic arnica reduce symptoms of the common cold. In one double-blind trial, a proprietary formulation of echinacea, white cedar, and wild indigo, known as Esberitox, reduced the length and severity of cold symptoms significantly more than did placebo. One double-blind trial found that echinacea was inffective for treating colds that were induced in research subjects by instilling a cold virus (rhinovirus) directly into their noses. However, the relevance of this study to the treatment of naturally occurring colds is not clear. Another double-blind study found that echinacea was not an effective for upper respiratory tract infections in children aged 2 to 11 years. Echinacea is believed to work primarily through immune stimulation. The minimum effective amount of echinacea tincture or juice appears to be 3 ml three times per day. Higher amounts, such as 3 to 5 ml every two hours, is generally better and is safe, even for children. Encapsulated products may also be effective, according to a double-blind trial using the root of E. pallida. Generally, capsules containing 300 to 600 mg are used three times per day. According to one double-blind trial, employees of a nursing home who consumed echinacea tea at the onset of a cold or flu reduced the duration of their symptoms by about two days when compared with people consuming a placebo tea. The participants drank five to six cups of tea on the first day of their symptoms and decreased this by one cup each day over the next five days. Most double-blind trials indicate that regular use of echinacea to prevent colds does not work. However, one double-blind trial showed that regular use of echinacea for four months over the winter decreased the number of colds by 21% compared with a placebo, a statistically significant difference. For the treatment of a cold, it is currently recommended to use echinacea for a total of seven to ten days. |
2 Stars Gingivitis (Caraway, Chamomile, Clove Oil, Menthol, Molmol, Peppermint, Sage) 0.5 ml in half a glass of water three times per day swished slowly in the mouth before spitting out | A mouthwash containing sage oil, peppermint oil, menthol, chamomile tincture, expressed juice from echinacea, myrrh tincture, clove oil, and caraway oil has been used successfully to treat gingivitis. A mouthwash combination that includes sage oil, peppermint oil, menthol, chamomile tincture, expressed juice from , myrrh tincture, clove oil, and caraway oil has been used successfully to treat gingivitis. In cases of acute gum inflammation, 0.5 ml of the herbal mixture in half a glass of water three times daily is recommended by some herbalists. This herbal preparation should be swished slowly in the mouth before spitting out. To prevent recurrences, slightly less of the mixture can be used less frequently. A toothpaste containing sage oil, peppermint oil, chamomile tincture, expressed juice from Echinacea purpurea, myrrh tincture, and rhatany tincture has been used to accompany this mouthwash in managing gingivitis. Of the many herbs listed above, chamomile, echinacea, and myrrh should be priorities. These three herbs can provide anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial actions critical to successfully treating gingivitis. |
2 Stars Immune Function 3 to 5 ml of liquid extract three times per day | Studies have found that echinacea stimulates the function of a variety of immune cells, particularly natural killer cells. Taking it appears to speed recovery from the common cold. In general, human studies have found that taken orally stimulates the function of a variety of immune cells, particularly natural killer cells. The balance of evidence currently available from studies suggests that echinacea speeds recovery from the common cold, via immune stimulation (as opposed to killing the cold virus directly). Evidence on preventing the common cold with echinacea is largely negative, suggesting its immune-stimulating activity may be mild in generally healthy people. Other studies on oral echinacea have not found that it stimulates activity of the white blood cells known as neutrophils. Many doctors recommend 3 to 5 ml of tincture three times per day for up to two weeks to improve immune function. Echinacea in capsule form is also commonly available. |
2 Stars Infection 3 to 5 ml of liquid herbal extracts every two hours, or 300 to 600 mg of powdered herb three times per day, or 5 to 6 cups of tea daily | Echinacea is both immune supportive and antimicrobial. In general, human studies have found that echinacea taken orally stimulates the function of a variety of immune cells, particularly natural killer cells. |
2 Stars Influenza 3 to 5 ml of liquid formulas or 300 mg of powdered root supplements three times per day | Taking echinacea may help clear flu symptoms faster. has long been used for colds and flu. Double-blind trials in Germany have shown that infections associated with flu-like symptoms clear more rapidly when people take echinacea. Echinacea appears to work by stimulating the immune system. The usual recommended amount of echinacea is 3–5 ml of the expressed juice of the herb or tincture of the herb or root, or 300 mg of dried root powder three times per day. Wild indigo contains polysaccharides and proteins that have been reported in test tube studies to stimulate the immune system. The immune-enhancing effect of wild indigo is consistent with its use in traditional herbal medicine to fight the flu. However, wild indigo is generally used in combination with other herbs such as , goldenseal, or thuja. |
1 Star Bronchitis Refer to label instructions | Echinacea is an immune-stimulating herb that is widely used by herbalists for people with acute respiratory infections. Antimicrobial and immune stimulating herbs may also potentially benefit people with bronchitis. is widely used by herbalists for people with acute respiratory infections. This herb stimulates the immune system in several different ways, including enhancing macrophage function and increasing T-cell response. Therefore, echinacea may be useful for preventing a cold, flu, or viral bronchitis from progressing to a secondary bacterial infection. |
1 Star Canker Sores Refer to label instructions | The antiviral, immune-enhancing, and wound-healing properties of echinacea may make this herb a reasonable choice for canker sores. The antiviral, immune-enhancing, and wound-healing properties of may make this herb a reasonable choice for canker sores. Liquid echinacea in the amount of 4 ml can be swished in the mouth for two to three minutes, then swallowed. This procedure may be repeated three times per day. However, no research has investigated the possible effects of this treatment. |
1 Star Chronic Candidiasis Refer to label instructions | The fresh-pressed juice of Echinacea purpurea has been shown to help prevent recurring yeast infections in one trial. The fresh-pressed juice of has been shown to be helpful in preventing recurrence of vaginal yeast infections in a double-blind trial; it may have similar benefit in Yeast Syndrome. The typical recommendation for this effect is 2 to 4 ml of fluid extract daily. |
1 Star Cold Sores Refer to label instructions | In traditional herbal medicine, tinctures of various herbs including echinacea have been applied topically to herpes outbreaks in order to promote healing. In traditional herbal medicine, tinctures of various herbs, including chaparral, St. John’s wort, goldenseal, myrrh, and , have been applied topically to herpes outbreaks in order to promote healing. |
1 Star Ear Infections Refer to label instructions | Children with recurrent ear infections may benefit from taking echinacea, as it has been reported to support healthy immune function. has been reported to support healthy short-term immune response. As a result, it has been suggested that some children with recurrent ear infections may benefit from 1–2 ml (depending on age) of echinacea tincture taken three times per day or more. Doctors who use echinacea suggest that supplementation be started as soon as symptoms start to appear and continued until a few days after they are gone. Nonetheless, research has not been done to determine whether echinacea supplementation either reduces symptoms or prevents recurrence of ear infections. |
1 Star Gingivitis Refer to label instructions | Echinacea provides anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial actions critical to successfully treating gingivitis. A mouthwash combination that includes sage oil, peppermint oil, menthol, chamomile tincture, expressed juice from , myrrh tincture, clove oil, and caraway oil has been used successfully to treat gingivitis. In cases of acute gum inflammation, 0.5 ml of the herbal mixture in half a glass of water three times daily is recommended by some herbalists.

Of the many herbs listed above, chamomile, echinacea, and myrrh should be priorities. These three herbs can provide anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial actions critical to successfully treating gingivitis. |
1 Star HIV and AIDS Support Refer to label instructions | Supplementing with echinacea may increase immune activity against HIV. A controversy has surrounded the use of in people infected with HIV. Test tube studies initially showed that echinacea’s polysaccharides could increase levels of a substance that might stimulate HIV to spread. However, these results have not been shown to occur when echinacea is taken orally by humans. In fact, one double-blind trial found that Echinacea angustifolia root (1 gram three times per day by mouth) greatly increased immune activity against HIV, while placebo had no effect. Further studies are needed to determine the safety of using echinacea in HIV-positive people. |
1 Star Vaginitis Refer to label instructions | Echinacea is antibacterial and known to improve resistance to infection. Teas of goldenseal, barberry, and are also sometimes used to treat infectious vaginitis. Although all three plants are known to be antibacterial in the test tube, the effectiveness of these herbs against vaginal infections has not been tested in humans. The usual approach is to douche with one of these teas twice each day, using 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 grams) of herb per pint of water. One to two pints (500–1,000 ml) are usually enough for each douching session. Echinacea is also known to improve immune function in humans. In order to increase resistance against infection, many doctors recommend oral use of the tincture or alcohol-preserved fresh juice of echinacea (1 teaspoon (5 ml) three or more times per day)—during all types of infection—to improve resistance. |
1 Star Wound Healing Refer to label instructions | Echinacea is used among European practitioners of herbal medicine to promote wound healing. is used among European practitioners of herbal medicine to promote wound healing and is approved by the German government for this use. Creams or ointments are applied several times a day to minor wounds. |

Many doctors recommend that people with recurrent yeast infections take measures to support their immune system. , which has the capacity to enhance immune function, is often used by people who suffer from recurrent infections. In one study, women who took echinacea experienced a 43% decline in the recurrence rate of yeast infections. |
Traditional Use (May Not Be Supported by Scientific Studies)
Echinacea was used by Native Americans for a variety of conditions, including venomous bites and other external wounds. It was introduced into U.S. medical practice in 1887 and was touted for use in conditions ranging from colds to syphilis. Modern research started in the 1930s in Germany.
How It Works
How It Works
Echinacea is thought to support the immune system by activating white blood cells.1 Three major groups of constituents may work together to increase the production and activity of white blood cells (lymphocytes and macrophages), including alkylamides/polyacetylenes, caffeic acid derivatives, and polysaccharides. More studies are needed to determine if and how echinacea stimulates the immune system in humans.
Echinacea may also increase production of interferon, an important part of the body’s response to viral infections.2 Several double-blind studies have confirmed the benefit of echinacea for treating colds and flu.3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Recent studies have suggested that echinacea may not be effective for the prevention of colds and flu and should be reserved for use at the onset of these conditions.8, 9 In terms of other types of infections, research in Germany using injectable forms or an oral preparation of the herb along with a medicated cream (econazole nitrate) reduced the recurrence of vaginal yeast infections as compared to women given the cream alone.10
How to Use It
At the onset of a cold or flu, 3–4 ml of echinacea in a liquid preparation or 300 mg of a powdered form in capsule or tablet, can be taken every two hours for the first day of illness, then three times per day for a total of 7 to 10 days.11

Side Effects
Side Effects
Echinacea is rarely associated with side effects when taken orally.12 There is one case report of acute hepatitis occurring in a person taking echinacea, but a cause-and-effect relationship was not proven.13 According to the German Commission E monograph, people should not take echinacea if they have an autoimmune illness, such as lupus, or other progressive diseases, such as tuberculosis, multiple sclerosis, or HIV infection. However, the concern about echinacea use for those with autoimmune illness is not based on clinical research and some herbalists question the potential connection. Those who are allergic to flowers of the daisy family should not take echinacea. Cases of allergic responses to echinacea (e.g., wheezing, skin rash, diarrhea) have been reported in medical literature.14 In the first study to look at echinacea’s possible effect on fetal development and pregnancy outcome, women taking echinacea during pregnancy were found to have no greater incidence of miscarriage or birth defects than women not taking the herb.15
Echinacea root contains approximately 20% inulin,16 a fiber widely distributed in fruits, vegetables, and plants. Inulin is classified as a food ingredient (not as an additive) and is considered safe to eat.17 In fact, inulin is a significant part of the daily diet of most of the world’s population.18 However, there is a report of a 39-year-old man having a life-threatening allergic reaction after consuming high amounts of inulin from multiple sources.19 Allergy to inulin in this individual was confirmed by laboratory tests. Such sensitivities are exceedingly rare. Moreover, this man did not take echinacea. Nevertheless, people with a confirmed sensitivity to inulin should avoid echinacea.
