This Elderberry extract is a uniquely concentrated, 100% pure extract providing enhanced levels of anthocyanins, the specialized group of flavonoids responsible for elderberry's immune system support. One of the most prized elderberry flavonoids is the compound quercetin. Studies have shown that the antioxidant properties of anthocyanins found in elderberry extract maintain healthy immune function and promote the strength and integrity of the vascular walls.*
Primarily found in Europe and North America black elderberries have long been used in traditional cultures to support immune function. Elder Berries have also been used as a food, source for making wine, and syrup. The bush has been referred to as “the medicine tree of the common people.” The flowers of Sambucus nigra and Sambucus Canadensis have been used to support a healthy immune response during times of fever and praised for their diaphoretic properties when steeped as a tea.*

Mechanism of Theraputic Action
Black Elderberries encourage a healthy immune reaction against undesired organisms that induce flu-like symptoms. Black Elderberries antioxidant and immune enhancing properties may have a beneficial effect on the body’s normal response to influenza viruses A and B. The berries like most others are loaded with antioxidant flavonoids.*
In particular Elder Berries contain anthocyanin flavonoids which are particularly noted for their free radical quenching activity throughout the cardiovascular system. Many viruses cause oxidative stress on tissues of the mucosa in the nasal turbinates, sinus, throat, trachea, and bronchioles and lung tissue in general. This oxidative stress can cause damage to the cells but can be offset by the incorporation of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents like RXa factors.*
