Elderberries have an extremely high concentration of certain flavonoids called anthocyanins which are responsible for the berry’s signature deep purple color. Anthocyanins are powerful antioxidants that work within the immune system to enhance the body’s response and keep it functioning at its best.

According to the United States Department of Agriculture the highest concentration of anthocyanins are found in black elderberries, nearly double the amount found in any other fruit. This gives black elderberries twice the natural antioxidant capacity of blueberries and significantly more than cranberries.   Sambucol's unique manufacturing process harnesses the natural power of these anthocyanins, providing a health supplement suitable for the whole family.  

Sambucol© was developed by a world-renowned virologist in 1991 after years of research. A proprietary formulation and extraction process was developed which preserves and maximizes the naturally occurring immunity benefits of the berry. Only Sambucol© can guarantee consistent, immune supporting properties in every serving.

With over 20 years of scientific research, Sambucol© is the most extensively researched Black Elderberry product in the world. Our Original Black Elderberry Syrup is the formulation used in published scientific studies. We are now sold around the world and trusted by millions.
