NOW® Sambucus Zinc-C contains a 10:1 Elderberry concentrate. For centuries, Elderberry has been used as a tonic to help maintain health and well-being. In folk medicine, the berries are used dried or juiced to treat flu, colds, infections, sciatica, and headaches, and as a laxative and diuretic.

Elderberry is a low-calorie yet nutritionally rich food. It's high in vitamin C and dietary fiber. It's a good source of phenolic acids and flavonoids, powerful antioxidants that can help reduce the damage caused by oxidative stress in the body. It's also rich in anthocyanins, responsible for its deep purple (almost black) color. These powerful antioxidants help strengthen the immune system.

NOW® Sambucus Zinc-C includes Zinc and Vitamin C for their essential immune system supporting properties.
Zinc is the second most abundant mineral in the body—after iron—and is present in all cells. It is necessary for the activity of over 300 enzymes that aid in metabolism, digestion, nerve function, and many other processes. It is also essential for the development and function of immune cells.

One of the main reasons vitamin C supplements are taken is to strengthen the immune system. Vitamin C is involved in many parts of the immune system. First, it helps stimulate the production of white blood cells, known as lymphocytes and phagocytes, which help protect the body against infections.
