Infection is a condition that caused the invasion of stimuli and micro pathogens, including viral infection.
A viral infection is a disease caused by the successful entering and multiplying of a virus in the body.
Similar to bacterial infection, both infections shared common characteristics by spreading through coughing and sneezing by and contact with infected people, especially through kissing and sex.
However, the virus may also cause infection by entering the body through wound and cut. Most viruses are killed in the acute phase of the infection.
Antiviral agents are a class of medication that is used specifically for treating specific viral infections.
Anti-viral effects are an act of certain substances to cause the destruction of a virus.
In the acute phase of viral infection, depending on the types of viruses, the viruses after entering the body start to attack the specific host cells. The cold and flu virus will attack the cells in the respiratory system and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes AIDS, will attack the white blood cells of the immune system,
The viral infection has been known to carry over some different stage, after successfully attaching to the host cell, the virus to release its mRNA into the host cell, leading to the recruit of the host cell's enzymes to accelerate the viral multiplying, then breaking free from the host cell to start the cycle all over again.
The white blood cells in the systematic immune response in the acute phase of infection stimulate the production of the proinflammatory cytokines to the site of infection with an aim to protect our body by killing off the invaders.
The battle between the immune white blood cell and viral invaders in most cases an in the flavor of the side of the immune system, the invaders are killed and the infection is healed.
Echinacea also is known as purple coneflowers, is a flowering plant of the genus Echinacea, belongings to the family Asteraceae, native to eastern and central North America. The herb has been used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat or prevent colds, flu, infections by stimulating the immune function, etc.
On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of infectious diseases, researchers examined the interaction between immunomodulatory responses and plant-derived, prebiotic compounds on viral infection.
According to the analysis
* Inulin-type fructans (ITFs), that naturally occur in echinacea and other foods may act as signaling molecules and antioxidants for infectious disease prevention.
* Echinacea is a well-known medicinal plant and products derived from it are sold globally for its cold- and flu-preventative and general health-promoting properties.
* ITFs in Echinacea derived formulations may play critical role immunomodulation against the viral agents.
Taken altogether, herbal Enchinanea may be considered adjunct therapies in the treatment of viral infection, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of tocopherols in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
