There is some good citations that pointed that the original thesis regarding echinacea was flawed and it is now concluded that you can take it continuously without a problem. Treat it like food and it will be used by the body as needed. I've been using it continuously and it works when it has to and when it doesn't I just don't see anything. Dosages have been revised upwards to some very heavy amounts and I have been there and done that too. Dr. Richard Schwarz is an expert on this subject and he talks about using 1 oz. shots of the tincture per dose to really hit serious illness. Hope this helps.
