Echinacea

Immune and skin support

Echinacea (Echinacea purpurea) is a botanical rich in bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, alkylamides, and polysaccharides. These compounds have been studied for their antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory properties (Burlou-Nagy et al., 2022).

Through its interaction with the immune system, echinacea supports normal immune responses and contributes to maintaining overall physiological balance. A well-functioning immune system plays an important role in skin health, as it helps the body respond to external challenges.

Echinacea is also studied for its dermatological relevance, with research suggesting that its bioactive compounds contribute to maintaining skin condition and resilience. These combined properties make it a valuable ingredient in formulations aimed at supporting both immune function and skin health (Verhelst, 2025).
