My granddaughter was diagnosed with HSP this last Dec. It seems we are getting some relief for her though changes in her diet and supplements we found that are helping. i was wondering if anyone has any knowledge about taking echinacea or elderberry also? She was taking liquid echinacea drops and we found gummies with elderberry and echinacea. Then i just read an article that while these two boost the immune system they also make autoimmune disease or disorders worse. Has anyone heard the same??

Thanks for any input.
