Introduction: For most of our life, our immune system successfully fought cancerous cells, killing them as they developed. That's its job. In fact, the only job natural killer cells have is to kill cancer cells and viruses. For cancer to develop, your immune system must either be worn out, ineffective, unable to kill cancer cells as fast as they normally develop, or you must be exposed to a mass of cancer causing toxins, radiation or some such thing, that increase the rate of development of cancer cells to such an abnormally high level that your immune system can't handle it. Background: Echinacea flower isolated on a white background Echinacea is a native North American coneflower that was discovered and used as a traditional herbal remedy for more than 400 years by the Great Plains tribes. Methods: We reviewed the literature to examine the constituents, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of herbal supplements that are predominantly used by patients. Results: Products made from botanicals that are used to maintain or improve health are known as herbal supplements, botanicals or phytomedicines. Many herbs have a long history of use and have claimed health benefits. Conclusions: The immune system is critical when fighting cancer. While some treatments kill cancer cell and other treatment revert the cancer cell in to normal cell, the immune system still has to be fixed before the patient as a whole.
