Well, because today’s science seems to back up yesteryear’s folklore. To put it plainly, unadulterated elderberries are good for you. In fact, promising scientific studies have shown that elderberries are unusually rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and phytochemicals called anthocyanins, which help stimulate your immune system and support cell health. These tiny berries are packed so full of these nutrients, meaning a little bit of elderberry goes a long way.
Historically, elderberries were used in homeopathic remedies for a variety of ailments. Native Americans used it to treat infections, and Egyptians used it to improve complexions, for example. In the U.S. today, elderberry is most often taken as a supplement to support healthy immune function.
More research is needed to fully understand everything elderberry has to offer, but one thing is certain: a diet filled with antioxidant-packed foods is one of the best strategies for maintaining a strong immune system. And elderberries are rich in powerful immune boosters: antioxidants like flavonoids, vitamin C, and vitamin A.
