Sambucol was developed by a world-renowned scientist who recognized the potential of the antioxidants present in the Black Elderberry. The unique preparation method for the standardized Black Elderberry Extract used in Sambucol preserves and maximizes the naturally occurring health benefits of the berry. Sambucol has been laboratory tested, and the services are published in international clinical trials. Sambucol has been used by millions of people worldwide. Sambucol is a unique black elderberry extract rich in immune-supporting flavonoids. Flavonoids are powerful; natural antioxidants thought to protect the body’s cells from the potential damage caused by free radicals. Certain flavonoids anthocyanins are found primarily in the pigments of dark blue and deep purple fruits such as the black elderberry. It is these that have a remarkable ability to stimulate the body’s immune system. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the highest concentration of anthocyanins is found in black elderberries, nearly double the amount found in any other fruit. The presence of these anthocyanins gives black elderberries twice the natural antioxidant capacity of blueberries and significantly more than cranberries. Sambucol’s unique manufacturing process harnesses the raw power of these anthocyanins providing a health supplement suitable for the whole family.
