About this Product:

Here are some main reasons why elderberries are so good for you. Elderberries are high in Vitamin C. According to modern food science, there are between 6-3 mg of Vitamin C per 100g of berries, which accounts for up to 60% of the recommended daily intake. They are a good source of phenolic acid, a powerful antioxidant.

Elderberries are rich in anthocyanins. A compound that gives the fruit its characteristic dark purple-black color, anthocyanins are another strong antioxidant with anti-inflammatory effects.
