Elderberry – The Medicine Chest of the Common People? 

Elderberry extract comes from the fruit of the Sambucus nigra or Black Elder, a species found in Europe, Western Asia, North Africa, and North America . Called “the medicine chest of the common people,” Elder flowers, berries, leaves, bark, and roots have all been used for centuries in traditional folk medicines.
Elder fruit contains vitamins A, B and C, flavonoids, tannins, carotenoids, and amino acids. Elderberry is believed to possess therapeutic uses as an anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and immuno-stimulant.

Immune Support During Cold/Flu Season

The best documented aspect of elderberry is its anti-viral effects. Elderberry has long been used to support a healthy immune system. Two separate studies using an elderberry extract found it helped inhibit influenza when taken during the first 48 hours of symptoms. Participants experienced a significant reduction in the length of symptoms.

Loaded with antioxidants

Elderberry also contains several anthocyanin flavonoids known to possess significant antioxidant properties. There are a number of diseases known to exhibit the effects of oxidative stress in the body including cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, peripheral vascular disease and multiple sclerosis.
Antioxidants, like those found in elderberry, scavenge free radicals reducing oxidative stress making elderberry a potentially valuable tool in treatment or prevention of these diseases.
