For ages, elderberry from Elder Trees have been known to have health benefits.
In fact, the history of elderberry goes as far as 400 BC and Hippocrates “The Father of Medicine” referred to the Elder Tree as his “Medicine Chest”.
Part of the reason is that the elderberry contains antioxidants, vitamins and is said to boost the immune system, lessen stress and protect the heart. Also to help fight against influenza.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant known to help the development and repair all body tissues, formation of collagen, absorption of iron, help maintain cartilage, bones and teeth and help with a proper functioning immune system.
Zinc is known to support the immune system. Those with low zinc levels run the risk of disease and illnesses.
So, it’s natural that a company’s blend the three for a vitamin supplement and has antioxidant properties.
I’m trying the Vitamountain EB Elderberry with Vitamin C Gummies. It’s about a months worth as you take two a day and there are 60 gummies per cannister.
The gummies taste sweet like candy (yes, these have sugar), so don’t have these around for the children to get their hands on.
But nevertheless, each gummy is made of 100mg of Natural Sambucus Black Elderberry and 90mg of Vitamin C. There is also 7.5mg Zinc per serving. So, it’s a 3-in-1 support for ones immune system.
Overall, at under $13 Vitamountain EB Elderberry with Vitamin C Gummies is good for its benefits but for those who are trying to reduce their sugar, just know that these supplements have 4g per gummy. I just wish there was less of it.
