Elderberry Powder (Sambucus Nigra)    Elderberries are the fruit of the Sambucus Tree, which is native to the Americas and Europe. These berries are highly sought after due to their high antioxidant and fiber content. Elderberries are often time used in over-the-counter cold and flu products, as they are believed to prevent or reduce some symptoms related to them. Due to the high levels of flavonoids, these berries are reported to reduce inflammation internally and externally. In some cultures, these berries are also used to make elderberry wine, much like grapes are used. Due the rich purple color of these berries, they are also used as a colorant or dye.  Quality: We source our Elderberry powder bulk supply from pharmaceutical grade, wild harvested, or organic manufactures.   In addition, our products are dried using low heat under 120 degrees.
