For centuries, European black elder (Sambucus nigra L.) berries have been traditionally used as a winter remedy. Virological testing has demonstrated that a concentrated elderberry extract can impede the replication of viruses by hindering their ability to attach to cells, thus stymieing virus multiplication and spread (viruses cannot replicate without invading a cell). Nature’s Way opts for solvent-free, bio-certified Bioactives® elderberry extract, as scientific research indicates it is bio-accessible and active in the body for maximum efficacy.
Vitamin C is notable for its role in bolstering the immune system, stimulating the production and activation of lymphocytes, neutrophils, antibodies, and interferon. This helps the body build resistance to bacterial and viral infections, assuring faster recovery times from illnesses.
