Black Elderberry Elixir: Botanical + Mushroom Syrup

Double-extracted elderberry syrup combined with antiviral extracts from skullcap, cordyceps, reishi, shiitake, and maitake.

This concentrated tonic is a highly effective support for your immune system and soothes irritation in the respiratory tract. With its high vitamin C content, black elderberry is traditionally used as a remedy for fever, colds, and coughs. Elderberry is also said to help clear mucus from the sinuses and bronchi.

The addition of adaptogenic mushroom extracts enhances the immune-boosting effect, and the diverse anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties of the medicinal mushrooms promote overall recovery.

Active Ingredients

• Elderberry (Sambucus Nigra Extract) is a powerful, immune-protective superberry that has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. The berries and flowers are packed with antioxidants and vitamins that strengthen the immune system and help the body eliminate infections and inflammation. Elderberry contains a high amount of secondary plant compounds, antioxidants, alpha-linolenic acid, and phytosterols.
• The Cordyceps mushroom is used by both ancient and modern herbalists as an energizing adaptogen and immune modulator. It supports endocrine health, benefits the lungs, liver, and kidneys, provides antioxidant support, and has also been used to promote fertility.
• Reishi (Ganoderma Lucidum), also known as the “mushroom of eternal life,” contains many minerals, vitamins, amino acids, and trace elements that make it especially valuable in medicine. Reishi is also highly valued in cosmetics for its anti-inflammatory and skin-rejuvenating properties and its ability to combat free radicals.
• Shiitake (Lentinus Edodes) is an anti-aging powerhouse in the fight against cellular damage. The use of shiitake as a medicinal plant dates back at least to 100 AD, when it was used in China to treat and prevent upper respiratory diseases, promote circulation, increase energy, reduce fatigue, and as a general elixir to strengthen chi. The mushroom is especially strengthening for the skin with provitamin D, vitamins B12 and B2, and vitamin E. Shiitake promotes collagen synthesis, supporting firm and elastic skin and can reduce lines and wrinkles.
• Ginger (Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Oil) is rich in vitamin C and contains a variety of trace elements such as magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, sodium, and phosphorus. Ginger has antibacterial and clarifying effects, stimulates microcirculation in the vessels, and promotes a fresher, healthier, and more radiant complexion.

• The term adaptogen was coined by Russian physician and scientist Nikolai V. Lazarev. It encompasses a wide variety of plants from around the world. For thousands of years, such adaptogens have been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Indian Ayurveda. Adaptogens are plant compounds, often herbs, roots, or mushrooms, that help the body cope with stress factors. These include schisandra, eleuthero, panax ginseng, ashwagandha, rhodiola, maca, and medicinal mushrooms like cordyceps, lion’s mane, or reishi. As the name suggests, adaptogens work by helping the body “adapt,” or adjust. Adaptogens increase our adaptability, regulate the stress axis (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis), and support anabolic metabolism. They have a balancing effect on the body, compensating for deficiencies as well as reducing overfunctions. This idea of balance has a long tradition in TCM and Ayurveda. Adaptogens are intended to bring harmony to body, mind, and soul.
