It is also a natural antibiotic, used to treat infections, to combat low resistance to sickness and to enhance the immune system.

“Echinacea angustifolia at the dosage used in this study, induced a dramatic improvement in immune system function, as measured by a marked augmentation of NK mediated lysis of HIV-transfected cells. These effects were seen in 11/12 patients, even in those who were most immunosuppressed. This response may be an indication that in patients with HIV infection immune system reconstitution is possible and could be achieved utilizing this nontoxic, inexpensive agent.”

“Analysis of polar fractions of E. purpurea extracts showed the presence of antiviral activity, with evidence suggesting that polyphenolic compounds other than the known HIV inhibitor, cichoric acid, may be involved.”
Elderberry extract
These herbal compounds will bind with viruses neutralizing the activity of the hemagglutinin spikes before they can penetrate the walls of cells, thereby inhibiting their ability to spread. Also, another compound in Elderberry, called anthocyanins, have an anti-inflammatory effect that will minimize aches, pains, and fever. While the flavonoids stimulate the immune system.

Zinc Oxide
Zinc oxide is a chemical compound with the formula ZnO. Zinc is an important element that is required for a number of immune functions, including T-lymphocyte activity, antioxidant activity and putative antiviral activity.
Vitamin C
 This is one of the most common substances to fight flu symptoms. Vitamin C has been proven to boost the bacteria-killing ability of certain immune cells called macrophages and neutrophils. It is also believed that vitamin C stimulates production of interferon, an important chemical in the immune system, and that it improves the thymus gland's ability to make infection-fighting lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell.
