i have also submitted some asks about H&B - their whole website is full of claims about their products - i just picked two concerning weight management.
On Echinacea also note that this page (http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/the-good-life-mot/colds/how-to-treat-symptoms-of-a-cold) claims "Taking the herb echinacea for at least 10 days throughout the cold season could reduce the number of colds you get and the severity of symptoms"
Will be interesting to see what response we get.
