Botanical Support for Immune Vitality, Seasonal Protection, and Deep Nourishment
Elderberries are a beloved traditional remedy, known for their rich antioxidant content and powerful support for the immune system. These small, dark berries are packed with flavonoids and vitamin C, helping the body build resilience especially during the colder months or times of immune challenge.
In European folk traditions, Elder (Sambucus nigra) was considered a sacred tree, deeply woven into the herbal and spiritual traditions of Celtic and Germanic cultures. The berries have been used for generations to ease symptoms of colds, flu, and respiratory congestion. Likewise, Indigenous peoples of North America, such as the Iroquois and Cherokee, have long used Elderberry preparations to strengthen immunity and support lung health.
In teas or blends:
Use 1–2 teaspoons of dried berries per cup. Combine with warming herbs like Ginger, Cinnamon, or Tulsi for a supportive seasonal tonic.
