Local Love for Organic American Elderberries
We all know supporting local businesses is vital for the health of our economy, but what if we told you the American elderberry plant is also better suited for products like our organic elderberry syrup than the imported European counterpart? American elderberry has been shown to be a rich source of antioxidants, vitamin C, zinc, copper and many other minerals. Elderberry is also one of the richest sources of bioflavonoids called anthocyanins – the nutrients that give organic elderberries their dark purple-black color. Studies have shown that anthocyanins may help with a variety of health issues like relieving oxidative stress, combating cancer, fighting inflammation, balancing blood sugar levels and supporting a healthy immune response. Anthocyanins are one of the major reasons why elderberry is so healthy.
