Description

This 4 oz bottle contains 15 mg Zinc (as Glycinate Chelate, taste-free), 350 mg Organic Elderberry Fruit, 50 mg Organic Echinacea Angustifolia Root, and 0.5 mg Organic Stevia Leaf Extract. Zinc is an essential trace element that is crucial for growth, development, and the maintenance of immune function. It is necessary for all organs and cell types and encompasses hundreds of key enzymes and transcription factors. Zinc is critical for antiviral immunity. People low in zinc are more prone to infections from HIV, Hep C, Herpes Simplex, and even the common cold. Elderberry is primarily used as an anti-viral agent to improve immunity against cold and flu.  Research suggests that when taking elderberry at the 1st sign of a cold or the flu, may cut recovery time in half. The anti-viral activity of elderberry was similar to the anti-flu activity of the anti-viral drug Tamiflu.  In recent studies, it showed to inhibit the influenza H1N1 virus in vitro.  In Germany, it has been approved for the treatment of colds and fevers.  Echinacea is best known for its beneficial effects on the immune system. Numerous studies have found that this plant may help your immune system combat infections and viruses, which could help you recover faster from illness. That’s one reason why echinacea is often used to prevent or treat the common cold. In fact, a review of 14 studies found that taking echinacea may lower the risk of developing colds by more than 50% and shorten the duration of colds by one and a half days.
