It is sick season guys! Or sugar season. Whatever way you look at it, sickness is going to be spread around at all those holiday gatherings. Instead of stocking up on meds at the pharmacy - grab some elderberry syrup from our “farmacy!”

This kit contains everything you need to make your own immune-system supporting elderberry syrup with no preservatives or chemicals. Just add water (and honey if you want). Full instructions are on the back of the packet. Take a teaspoon everyday to promote wellness or double the dose if you’re already sick.

Research suggests that elderberry syrup has many health benefits, including: 

• Promoting wellness during cold and flu

  Elderberry syrup has been used for centuries as a home remedy for viral illnesses. Some research suggests that it can shorten the duration of the flu and make it less severe, especially if taken within 24 to 48 hours of the first symptoms.

• Supporting the immune system

  Elderberry contains natural substances called flavonoids that may help boost the immune system. 

• Reducing inflammation

  Elderberry contains antioxidants and polyphenols that may help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. Applying elderberry to the skin may also reduce inflammation, bruising, and sprains (snag an elderberry chapstick too!). 

• Supporting the brain

  Elderberry contains anthocyanins, which may help support healthy brain function. 

• Regulating blood sugar imbalances

  Elderberry may help increase glucose oxidation and regulate blood sugar levels. 

Elderberry is also a good source of: Vitamin C, Fiber, Iron, and Potassium. 

***Makes about a cup of syrup or half a mason pint jar.
