In our recent study, we investigated the potential benefits of a natural preparation called Inflaminat, which includes black elderberry, violet herb, and calendula flowers, on cough and other symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Conducted over six months, this randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial involved 60 patients with moderate COPD.
We observed that those taking Inflaminat experienced a significant improvement in their symptoms as measured by the Breathlessness, Cough, and Sputum Scale. Specifically, their scores decreased from an average of 3.0 to 1.9, indicating less breathlessness and fewer cough symptoms. Additionally, their lung function improved, with a marked increase in the FEV1 measurement from 66% to 73%.
Importantly, participants in the placebo group showed no similar improvements, reinforcing the effectiveness of the natural remedy. Furthermore, we found no side effects associated with the preparation. Our findings suggest that herbal remedies, particularly those containing elderberry, could be valuable in alleviating cough and improving respiratory function in patients suffering from COPD.

We explored whether elderberry could help reduce the duration and severity of colds for economy class passengers traveling internationally. In a well-structured randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 312 participants, we looked at how a standardized elderberry extract affected respiratory health during air travel.
Participants tracked their cold episodes, duration, and symptoms in daily diaries, using a scoring method to quantify their experiences. They also completed surveys about their upper respiratory symptoms and quality of life at different points: before traveling and four days post-travel.
While we noted that the group taking the placebo experienced more cold episodes, the difference wasn't statistically significant. However, those taking elderberry had a significantly shorter duration of cold days and a lower average symptom score overall, suggesting that elderberry may significantly lessen the impact of colds during air travel.
Further research is essential to validate our findings and to better understand the broader health benefits of elderberry, both physical and mental.

I was informed that elderberry syrup is excellent for colds, but I dislike liquid medicine, so I opted for capsules instead, which worked incredibly well for me! I also take it with my allergy medication, and it alleviates my runny nose and swollen eyes. Thank you, Amazon! I was pleasantly surprised by its effectiveness.

OMG, these are remarkable! I was sceptical about their effects on my severe sinus infections and associated ear infections. After trying many treatments, including surgery, this supplement made a difference. After two weeks, my congestion decreased, and I've only had one sinus infection in several months since starting it.

We assessed the prevalence and patterns of herbal supplement use among patients with autoimmune skin diseases, specifically dermatomyositis (DM) and cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE). In this study, we found that the rate of herbal supplement use was notably prevalent—about 32% of the surveyed patients reported using them.
Among these patients, we observed a trend where younger individuals and those from Hispanic/Latino backgrounds were more likely to try herbal treatments. However, when we honed in on the effects of elderberry, we noticed a concerning pattern. Specifically, about 62% of DM patients and 50% of CLE patients experienced a disease onset or exacerbation after using elderberry, suggesting a potential risk associated with this supplement.
As we examined these findings, it became clear that while many patients gravitate towards herbal remedies, supplements like elderberry may carry risks, particularly regarding immune system regulation in autoimmune disorders. This reinforces the need for healthcare providers to actively engage with patients about their use of such treatments.

We explored the impact of Sambucus ebulus L. (elderberry) fruit infusion on cardiovascular health by examining its effects on body weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, and lipid profiles in 21 healthy volunteers aged 20 to 59. Each participant consumed 200 ml of elderberry infusion daily for 30 days, allowing us to measure changes in their health markers.
After the intervention period, we observed notable improvements in key health indicators. There was a significant reduction in triglycerides by 14.92%, total cholesterol by 15.04%, and LDL cholesterol by 24.67%. Additionally, the ratio of HDL to LDL cholesterol increased by 42.77%, indicating a healthier lipid profile.
We also noted enhancements in serum antioxidant capacity and total thiol levels. This first human study on the effects of elderberry fruit infusion suggests promising potential for improving cardiovascular health and addressing oxidative stress-related issues. Overall, the findings indicate that incorporating elderberry into our diet could be beneficial for heart health.

Elderberry is a staple in our home. I learned about its benefits for chest congestion years ago. When my mother suffered from walking pneumonia, medical treatment was ineffective. A friend suggested elderberry juice. Within one day of three doses, her cough improved, and she rapidly felt better. Elderberry juice is indispensable for us, and this is my first experience with tablets, which are not as potent but easier to take.

This study implemented a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design to explore whether elderberry supplements could improve respiratory health for air travelers. We observed 312 economy class passengers traveling from Australia to an overseas destination, aiming to see if a standardized elderberry extract could lessen the duration and severity of cold episodes.
Participants recorded their cold symptoms in daily diaries and completed surveys measuring their upper respiratory conditions and overall quality of life at various points before and after travel. While both groups experienced cold episodes, it was notable that those taking the placebo had a longer duration of symptoms and reported feeling worse overall. Specifically, the placebo group faced cold symptoms for an average of 117 days, compared to just 57 days for those receiving elderberry, and their average symptom scores were substantially higher.
Our analysis points to the potential benefits of elderberry in reducing both the duration and severity of cold symptoms for people traveling by air. However, additional research is necessary to confirm these findings and delve deeper into the possible effects of elderberry on both physical and mental health.

We delved into how elderberry, specifically from the black elderberry fruit, impacts the flu virus, H1N1. Using an innovative technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART TOF-MS), we were able to identify the powerful anti-viral properties of elderberry extract without the need for complicated processes like separation or derivatization.
Our findings revealed that elderberry extract does indeed inhibit H1N1 infection in a lab setting, with an effective concentration (IC50) of 252 micrograms per milliliter. Interestingly, we discovered that flavonoids present in the elderberry bind to H1N1 virions—essentially blocking their ability to infect host cells.
Among the compounds, two key flavonoids emerged: the 5,7,3',4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin and dihydromyricetin. These compounds not only bound to the virus but also effectively prevented infection. Notably, the tetra-O-methylquercetin demonstrated an impressive IC50 of just 0.13 micrograms per milliliter, which is comparable to well-known antiviral medications like Oseltamivir and Amantadine.
In summary, elderberry shows promising potential as a natural remedy against the H1N1 flu, offering a fascinating area for further research and utilization in flu prevention strategies.

I absolutely love these! They have no taste, are easy to swallow, and help keep my husband and me healthy. All five of my kids had the stomach flu this winter. Despite being around them while they were unwell, my husband and I started taking the elderberry three times a day and felt better. Amazingly, we never got sick!
