A Fresh Herb Story
Why
do we insist on using freshly harvested herbs in our remedies? The
answer is quite simple – it is because we believe that the method of
fresh herb extraction, pioneered by our founder Alfred Vogel, produces
better remedies.
As Alfred Vogel found decades ago, many
factors influence the quality of the herbal product you use. This is
why we still choose to use freshly harvested plants when making our
herbal remedies. Indeed, our research shows that the fresh
Echinacea extract used in Echinaforce contains almost 3 times more
active substances than can be obtained from the same amount of dried
herbs*. Also, in using our herbs fresh from harvesting, we avoid the
need to dry, fumigate and store plant material.
