What is Elderberry?

Elderberry, a dark purple berry, has been used for centuries for its health benefits. These tart little berries were prized by ancient civilizations for their medicinal and culinary properties. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all recognized the value of elderberries. Long before studies proved them right, elderberries were believed to have immune-boosting properties, making them a common remedy for colds, flu, and other respiratory conditions. Elderberry-based products, such as teas and syrups, were used for their healing benefits. The sweet-tart flavor of elderberries made them a popular choice for desserts and preserves.

Elderberries are rich in antioxidants and vitamins, making it a fantastic addition to your family's wellness routine. They contain flavonoids and anthocyanins, which give them their deep, rich color and provide many benefits. With good reason, elderberries have gained popularity in modern times as an effective natural remedy to support the immune system. Elderberry syrup and supplements are widely used to help prevent and alleviate viral symptoms.
