Elderberry for Your Immune System

Hello [Greeting]

Welcome back to our series about elderberries and how you can use them in your home 
holistic medicine cabinet! One of the best health benefits of elderberry and elderberry 
syrup is that it can help strengthen your immune system. 


How Does Elderberry Help Your Immune System?

The reason elderberry can be so beneficial for your immune system is because it is 
loaded with antibiotics. This is true no matter which form of elderberry you prefer, from 
the syrup to the lozenges and any new forms of the berries. 


How Often Should You Take it?

Another common question about taking elderberry syrup is how often to take it and how 
much. Just like nay other medicine, you want to read the labels. If you are using the 
actual syrup, there will be a recommended dosage on the back. This is both the 
frequency and the amount per dose. It is typically about 1 tablespoon every few hours if 
you are using it for cold or flu symptoms. If this is the reason you are using it, you 
should not take it every day, but only when you have those symptoms.


Please Note: This should not replace medical treatment for the flu, pneumonia, or more 
serious illnesses. It is meant to help you build up your immune system in conjunction 
with other methods of treatment. Not to be used as a replacement for medical advice or 
as a cure.
