Our Sambucus products are longtime favorites, and it all starts with the ingredient at their core—elderberry extract. We use a concentrated extract made from high quality handpicked elderberries, because we only want the best berries to make their way into our formulas. Read on to explore elderberry, learn how our signature elderberry extract is crafted for Sambucus, and discover a few of our favorite elderberry products. What is elderberry? Elderberries, from “black elder” or Sambucus nigra L., are small, dark purple berries that grow in clusters on trees and small flowering shrubs across Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa. For centuries, black elderberries have been traditionally used for immune support.* The dark purple berries are packed with anthocyanins, a type of flavonoid that provides antioxidant support.* Anthocyanins are what give the elderberries their intense purple color. Elderberry extract featured in our Sambucus products The elderberry extract in Nature’s Way Sambucus is made from the highest quality elderberries we could find. They come from high-altitude European farms and forests, where they grow best. The elderberries are picked by hand at peak ripeness to retain the highest concentration of antioxidant anthocyanins. The berries are then carefully washed, pressed, filtered, and made into an extract. This 64x concentrated 100% elderberry extract is standardized to anthocyanins for antioxidant support and provides traditional immune support.* Plus, none of our Nature’s Way Sambucus products contain artificial color—that’s all elderberry!
