What is Elderberry Immune Support?

Metabolics Elderberry Immune Support is formulated to contain various ingredients that support the functioning of the immune system.

Its three core ingredients are:

- Elderberry extract

Elderberries are the fruit of the Sambucus tree. The most common type is the Sambucus nigra. The tree has clusters of small white or cream elderflowers and bunches of small blue or black elderberries.

Elderberries contain beneficial flavonoids, which are plant-based phytochemicals that are known to possess antioxidant properties. Antioxidants fight against cell-damaging free radicals in the body.

- Zinc Ascorbate

Zinc Ascorbate combines Zinc with Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) to provide a highly bio available form of this mineral that plays a key role in immune function.

- N Acetyl Cysteine

N Acetyl Cysteine (also known as NAC) is a plant antioxidant naturally found in Onion. It is a source of the amino acid L-Cysteine which is the precursor to the antioxidant glutathione. NAC has good bio availability. Foods high in glutathione precursors are broccoli, cauliflower, and asparagus. Vegetables with a high sulfur content yield naturally high glutathione levels.
