Contra-indications:
- Chewable Vitamin C and Echinacea is not recommended for diabetics as it contains sugar. We suggest replacement with Healtheries Odourless Garlic, Vitamin C and Zinc with Echinacea and Olive Leaf.
- Those who are allergic to flowers of the daisy family should not take echinacea.
- Echinacea can be taken for up to eight weeks continually, this should be followed by a "rest" period (no Echinacea use) for at least one week or more. Otherwise, Echinacea can tend to over-stimulate the immune system, which is undesirable during periods of low-infection risk, eg. summer.
-
Those on medications should check with their health professional before taking.
