Igeapro, thanks to its immunostimulant, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities, Igeapro is an effective product for combating issues related to a weakened immune system, inflammatory states, and oxidative damage.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

For Echinacea purpurea, both the aerial parts and the roots are traditionally used. The plant is known for its anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant properties, as well as its role in preventing upper respiratory tract infections, and its bacteriostatic and antiviral effects. Recent scientific research has delved deeper into the composition of Echinacea extracts to identify the compounds most relevant to its health benefits. Advances in technology have highlighted key compounds such as alkamides, glycoproteins, polyphenols, and polysaccharides, which are considered the primary contributors to the plant’s immunostimulant, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Numerous studies show that Echinacea can enhance innate immunity and boost the body’s ability to fight infections by activating neutrophils, macrophages, polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs), and natural killer (NK) cells.
