Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 There is some wonderful information about the product Sambucol and the research done on it. Elderberry seems to actively suppress the flu virus. My family and friends have been taking it for several years and have not had the flu or even a virus for all that time. Elderberries are ready for harvest in August and we are picking them every day right now. We dry them and store them in air tight bottles and containers. They grow all over the US prolifically. We add honey and take this with vitamin C. We also mix it 1/2 elderberry juice to 1/2 red wine and drink it. The red wine is for the resveratrol. One small glass a day this way is sufficient. There are many web sites for elderberry found on Google with recipes etc. My grandson drinks a small glass of apple juice mixed with elderberry every morning with breakfast during the school year. He rarely gets even a cold and when he does he recovers in just a few days. There are no known allergies to elderberry but one should always be alert to the possibility that they may not be able to take just everything. With the flu alert this year elderberry may be the answer to avoiding it. Melba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Elderberry is awesome! Thanks for sharing the info on the berries, I'll get looking for some. I use the flowers. For flus mix them with mint in tea and it does wonders. Mix with boneset and mint and it's miraculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
