Sarah - Dr D has done it all for us!
A new product from NAP provides the beneficial effects of elderberry, rose hips, blueberry and
black cherry in a base of ARA6…
We now have Proberry Caps (thanks to Dr D - again!). Elderberry is a traditional remedy for the
symptoms of flu. In experiments, elderberry was
shown to inhibit replication of all strains of human influenza viruses tested. In an actual
placebo-controlled, double blind study (the scientific
gold-standard so to speak) an extract of elderberry fruit has been shown to be effective for
treating influenza B. What this research showed was
that people using the elderberry extract got better much quicker (more than 70% were better
after 2 days and over 90% of people completely
resolved the infection within 3 days). In contrast, the people given a placebo often needed as
much as 6 days to feel well. How does elderberry
work? Researchers found 2 reasons: People taking elderberry were able to produce higher
antiviral antibodies (anti-hemagglutination titers) to
influenza B, meaning their immune system performed better and they now have a higher level of
recognition should this flu return. Also,
elderberry inhibits neuraminidase, an important enzyme that is needed by the virus to attach to
the mucous membranes of the nose, throat and
lungs.
Proberry caps feature a critical 4:1 concentrate of elderberry combined with ARA6 to optimize
immune function.
