The flower has a distinct shape, with a large central disk covered in awns. In reference to its distinctive shape, its name is derived from a Greek word meaning “sea urchin.” The flowers are often cultivated for ornamental use, and should be planted in loose, sandy soil. Echinacea is one of the most popular herbal medicines available, with American and German sales valued at over $100 million annually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly Native Americans used the plant, and it became known in popular medicine after the settlement of the prairie states in the 1800s. By the 1880s, the popularity of Echinacea had grown, and Dr. H. C. F. Meyer marketed it for a variety of ailments. The above-ground parts of the plant are used to make fresh juice, infusions (warm-water teas), and tinctures. The roots are used in either cut or powdered form for capsules, fluid extracts, teas, and tinctures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe German Commission E has approved the internal use of Echinacea purpurea for support of the lower urinary tract, and the external use as an application for minor wounds. Echinacea is used to support a healthy immune system and healthy sinus function during times of need. It has also been shown to support healthy respiratory function. Echinacea angustifolia and purpurea are often used interchangeably, though Native American populations traditionally preferred the use of angustifolia. For this reason, some people consider angustifolia the more effective species for medicinal use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Not to be used for those on HIV Medications as they can interfere with treatment.
