Is echinacea recommended for treating multiple sclerosis (MS)?

Echinacea is one of several dietary supplements said to stimulate the immune system. Sold as a cold and flu preventive for years, the latest studies showed it is not effective in either preventing or lessening the severity of such viruses. In laboratories, echinacea has activated T cells and macrophages, which could theoretically worsen multiple sclerosis (MS).

Therefore, it is not recommended. Also known to activate T cells are alfalfa, Asian and Siberian ginseng, astragalus, cat's claw, garlic, maitake mushrooms, mistletoe, shiitake mushrooms, stinging nettle, and melatonin.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
