User Reviews for elderberry

I had a terrible URI/Cold that included low grade fever (under 101.5), chills, total congestion, unproductive cough, body aches, exhaustion. A friend brought me Wyldewood Cellars Elderberry Juice Concentrate as she had watched a Doctor on YouTube recommend drinking a Tablespoon 3 to 4 X a day when very ill rather than taking all the other OTC Medications. I was skeptical but I had been ill for over a week and I was frightened this would turn into bronchitis and/or pneumonia as it has done in the past. I started ASAP and one hour after the 1st TBSP. my chills diminished....after the 2nd TBSP. my fever broke....after my 4th TBSP. I started having an "extremely productive cough" for the next three days. My friend has visited twice and has said my normal healthy color is back in my face and I sound much better. I am still very tired from the week of being ill and the three days of productive coughing but I wish I had known of this amazing natural product years ago!!! This almost miraculous Elderberry Juice Concentrate has helped me avoid the Hospital Emergency Room, Heavy Doses of Broad Spectrum Antibiotics and all the side effects that come with taking such drugs in the past. I hope never to be without this Elderberry Juice Concentrate again. I have read in their brochure that you can take one teaspoon a day in water, juice, shakes, etc.....to build and/or maintain good immunity. I will take this Elderberry Juice Concentrate for the rest of my life. I am amazed this natural product helped me so dramatically and with no side effects!!Read More Read Less

Have had sinus issues for few months but ended up with nasty plugged up with green slime. After being told about this I have been using a extract dropper with warm water for three days and almost feel human again. Best help I have found yet

I take 2 pills a day from G.N.C. anytime I feel a cold coming on, and the first day you feel just as crappie the second day you feel 90% better with a good energy boost and by day three I'm all better and that's my last treatment day. It works the same on everyone I refer it to. No side effects other than previously stated energy boost.

Nauseous had to stop taking it but was working slowly on the effects of my cold.

I took elderberry elixer last winter and I never caught a cold or the H1N1 flu. I feel it really boosted my immune system .

The day of my vacation I was coming down with a cold so I went out and got Nature's Way Sambucus syrup. I took it, in addition to drinking a few cups of orange juice, for 2 days straight (2-3x each day) and didn't become sick. It definitely works!

One of my children was ill with flu symptom only and I combined "Sambucol" a combination of 90mg elderberry, 100mg vit.C, and 5mg of zinc with Oscillo (oscillococcinum). My youngest who followed my directions to the tee, fluids, saline by nose and mouth, and sambucol 1 tab 4x was fever free within 24 hrs. Her other symptoms were gone as well in three days. However, my oldest (18) did not utilize the fluids as "told" and was sick longer than the youngest. She recently told me that her friends with the very same symptoms are still ill and she has been well for nearly a week. I believe that the use of Elderberry with plenty of fluids, the saline by mouth and nose, along with the Oscillo did the job. We did not have to use tylenol or motrin at all. Read More Read Less
