Make Your Own Elderberry Syrup

Elderberry Syrup is made from the berries of the flowering elder (or elderflower) plant. It is very high in antioxidants, has antiviral properties effective against many strains of flu (including avian and swine) and is also a great general immune system support. Other herbs may also be added for their synergistic effects.

Elderberries contain many different chemical compounds that deal with the body and the immune system in different ways depending on the unique needs of the body. Therefore Elderberry Syrup, especially when used with other supporting herbs, is a great way to naturally support the health of our bodies and immune systems so that when we come into contact with sick bugs our immune systems quickly and easily fight them off, preventing illness!
