Handmade in small batches using homegrown elderberries. Elderberry is the go-to herb at the very initial signs of cold or flu, so you should always have a bottle on hand! Taken at onset, elderberry can reduce the duration of cold and flu because it helps stimulate the immune system and resist infection. As an antiviral, it interferes with virus replication and strengthens cell walls to inhibit viral penetration. Elderberry also relieves coughs and congestion associated with lower respiratory viral infections, promoting expectoration of mucus associated with bronchial infections. Shake Well and take 1 to 2 tablespoons daily as a preventative, and take 1 teaspoon every 1-3 hours at an onset of illness. Discontinue if the illness worsens.
