eldosamb®
eldosamb® is a standardized elderberry extract. Carefully selected berries in combination with an established production process guarantee a minimum content of 13% anthocyanins. A preclinical research program showed that eldosamb® exerts good immune modulating properties, counteracting inflammatory immune reaction by decreasing pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor alpha and interferone gamma and increasing anti inflammatory IL-10 cytokine. Also research demonstrated that elderberry constituents can diminish virus infectivity to a moderate extent.

Sambucus nigra L. is a deciduous bush or tree growing up to 10 m (33 ft) with ivory white flowers and shiny blue-black berries. Elderberry preparations are consumed and known for their positive health effects in regard to common cold or influenza. The interest in elderberry preparations has increased constantly during the last years. The ripe berries contain different active ingredients and phytochemicals including anthocyanins (with cyanidin 3-glucoside and cyanidin 3-sambubiosid constituting the highest among them), flavonoids and (poly)phenolic acids.

- eldosamb® for Immune System
The immune system consists of various cells, organs and cell signaling molecules and is a highly complex system in the human body. It can be divided into two subsystems that are connected with each other in manifold ways. These are the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system, which both can act cell-mediated or with a humoral defense mechanism. In normal conditions, the immune system protects our organism extremely effectively against invaders especially when keeping in mind that we are surrounded by a variety of bacteria and viruses all day long. Nevertheless, it happens that we catch infections like a common cold or flu. The typical symptoms are e.g. headaches, nasal congestion and discharge, cough and fever. They are an aftereffect of inflammatory processes triggered by the infection. To help our body fight pathogens from the very beginning and thus prevent infections, to reduce symptoms during an infection and to shorten the duration of illness, supportive products for standard treatment are in demand.
