Elderberry & Elderberry Extract - Herbs

Elderberry

Also known as the "Englishman's grape," elderberries (Sambucus nigra) are a purplish-black fruit commonly used to make pies, jellies, jams, and wines. Elderberries contain vitamin A, B and C, potassium, phosphorus, as well as protective antioxidants and amino acids. Taken suplementally, elderberry extract is believed to help strengthen and maintain immune health. Elderberry extract may also have diuretic, laxative, sedative and astringent properties. Elderberry extract is available in tea, liquid, syrup or cough-drop form and can be safely used by adults and children to promote upper-respiratory and immune health throughout the year.
