ELDERBERRY
Traditional use of Elderberry goes back to ancient times, with the useful berry regarded as a staple of pharmacy dating back to the beginning of the Common Era.
In folk medicine, Elderberry is a trusted remedy used to relieve symptoms and duration of viral upper respiratory tract infections. Juice from the berries has long been considered an invaluable drink for common colds and coughs. As a diaphoretic, the berries promote sweating – helping to relieve fever and reduce congestion. Its demulcent action reduces irritation and inflammation in the chest.
ANTHOCYANOSIDES
The fruit of Sambucus nigra contains several components that may contribute to its effective pharmacological activity. Large amounts of polyphenols and anthocyanosides are present in fresh fruits. These possess potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These compounds can greatly affect the course of disease by counteracting oxidative stress in the body.
CLINICAL STUDIES
Clinical studies support the use of Elderberry to reduce the severity and duration of influenza and various upper respiratory tract infections. Studies have shown Elderberry extract to significantly reduce the duration and symptoms of influenza by more than 50%. Participants are relieved of major symptoms 4 days earlier in comparison to placebo.
Another clinical study of Elderberry extract suggests a significant reduction in cold severity and duration in test subjects of air travelers. As borders have reopened globally and the population are traveling once again in the post-pandemic world, demand for immune support ingredients will continue to rise.
Elderberry is clinically proven to help you feel better faster.
