Ingredients

Elderberry grows in Europe and North America. European herbalists traditionally used the leaves for pain relief and to help promote the healing of injuries when applied as a poultice. Today, herbalists and holistic health practitioners use elderberry to promote immune activity and respiratory health. Elderberry contains many antioxidants, including vitamins A, B, and C. These compounds support the immune system in defending against common viruses.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) plays a critical role in the immune system’s function, and its use by physicians has been recognized for almost a century. It is well known that vitamin C deficiency, due to low dietary intake, can weaken the immune system and increase susceptibility to several illnesses.

Citrus bioflavonoids promote healthy immune cell activity, supporting immune and respiratory function. They also have a synergistic relationship with vitamin C, increasing its absorption and optimizing immune support.

Zinc is well known to play an important role in the immune system, having several immunological mechanisms crucial for a healthy immune response. Studies have shown that zinc-deficient individuals may experience increased susceptibility to a variety of pathogens.

Ginger is another important compound known for its wide range of biological activities and diverse applications. Research has demonstrated the importance of ginger when tested in scenarios involving inflammation, oxidative stress, and immunity. Ginger and its biochemical properties are now the focus of many studies.
