SPECIFIC
ECHINACEA- Echinacea is a very famous herb
for its use as a booster to the immune system.
However this is a very limited understanding of
Echinacea. First, there are different species of
Echinacea. In the Eclectic system of medicine,
Lloyd gave extensive information on the use of Echinacea
Angustifolia. It is listed that it is an extremely
important herb and is used wherever there is deprivation
of the bodily fluids. This even includes toxic
invasions such as wasps, spiders, snakes, etc. It
gives the immune system an immediate boost, especially in
the first 48 hours. However, contrary to popular
opinion, it still helps the immune response, though to a
lesser degree for longer periods. This preparation
of Echinacea is a professional level preparation which is
the most effective and potent available anywhere.
It has proven to be the most important medicine for its
dramatic effect on the immune system and also because in
emergency situations such as wasp, spiders and snakes it
has proven very effective. Applied locally full
strength to the bite and taken internally in 30 drop
doses it has counteracted the swelling of wasps. In
the older books there are documented accounts of its
effectiveness in snakebite. Therefore it is a very
important emergency medicine. (1/2 oz.

versicolor). In recent history the Chinese Olympic

because of the success of the women's team. It was
later disclosed that they were in fact using
mushrooms. Also, mushrooms are used very frequently
in chronic diseases such as cancer, HIV, etc. Each

VITAMIN AND HERBAL COMBINATIONS
Although
we have not used many vitamins in our 20 years of
practice, I have become impressed by 3 herbal-vitamin
combinations from Eclectic. They are vegetarian
formulas that have been well received for those who need
vitamin support as well as the healing support of
herbs.

widely recognized herbs such as cayenne, ginger, garlic,
myrrh, and echinacea. Also the vitamins are vitamin

specifically formulated for pregnant and lactating

FREEZE DRIED CAPSULES
Freeze
drying preserves the properties of herbs for
encapsulating better that regular air drying, and it
guarantees the herb is not dried in the sun or in to hot
of an atmosphere. This is important for
potency. The equipment to do this is very expensive
and generally owned only by big coffee companies
etc. Eclectic has led the field in this freeze
drying process and therefore if one wants to use capsules
as is sometimes required, freeze dried are the
best.
SAW
PALMETTO- This herb is famous of
course for its use in prostate problems. This
eclectic capsule contains vegicaps and freeze-dried
palmetto berries from Florida. It is the best
available. (90 veggie caps $14)
NETTLES: Nettles has become very
popular for hay fever and allergies. It works in
many cases. It is particularly recommended in
allergic rhinitis. It can be combined with
Eyebright and specific Echinacea with great
results. Other things such as Larix can also be
used to boost the immune system long term. (90
veggie caps $12)
ECLECTIC FREEZE DRIED
CONCENTRATES
Clinically
potent capsule concentrates. Uniquely prepared
freeze-dried herbs combined with plant juices to increase
potency. Each capsule is equal to several normal
encapsulated herbs. In our opinion this is the only
real alternative to tinctured preparations in most
cases. All are prepared in vegetarian capsules.
All concentrates are 45 veggie-caps $18. 00. They cost more but the
results are very good.
KAVA-CALIFORNIA POPPY- Contains Kava-Kava(Piper
Methysticum), California Poppy (Eschscholzia), and
Passion flower (Passiflora Incarnata). This is a
potent pain reliever and good combination to induce
relaxation and rest.

phtoestrogen formula for pre-menopausal and menopausal
conditions. I have found it to be very satisfactory
with our customers.
ST JOHNS-LEMON BALM- Contains St. Johns
Wort (Hypericum Perforatum), Lemon Balm (Melissa
Officinalis), and Wild Oat green milky seed . This
is an excellent anti depressant formula.
