Black Elderberry 650mg | Premium Sambucus nigra | Immune Support | 120 Vegan Capsules

Each vegan capsule delivers 650mg of premium black elderberry (Sambucus nigra, fruit), one of the most researched botanical ingredients for immune support. Rich in anthocyanins, flavonoids, and polyphenols that support immune function, antioxidant defences, and upper respiratory tract health.

How This Product Is Made

Black elderberry (Sambucus nigra) fruit is harvested from cultivated elderberry plants and dried to produce a concentrated fruit powder. The deep purple colour of the berry reflects its exceptionally high anthocyanin content, the primary class of polyphenols responsible for elderberry's antioxidant and immune supporting properties. The dried fruit powder is encapsulated in Canada in a GMP certified facility under Health Canada oversight using hypromellose (vegetable capsule shell), microcrystalline cellulose, and magnesium stearate (vegetable source). No artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners, or preservatives.

What Is Black Elderberry?

Sambucus nigra (black elderberry) is a flowering plant in the Adoxaceae family, native to Europe and widely cultivated across temperate regions. The small, dark purple berries are harvested in late summer and have been used in European traditional medicine for centuries. Black elderberry is one of the most extensively researched botanical ingredients for immune support, with a growing body of peer-reviewed clinical evidence. The fruit is rich in anthocyanins, flavonoids (quercetin, rutin), vitamins A and C, and polyphenols that support immune function and antioxidant defences.

What Are the Active Compounds in Black Elderberry?

The primary bioactive compounds in Sambucus nigra fruit are anthocyanins, particularly cyanidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-sambubioside, which give the berry its deep purple colour and are among the most studied polyphenols for immune and antioxidant activity. Elderberry also contains quercetin and rutin (flavonoids that support immune cell signaling), vitamins A and C (antioxidant vitamins that support immune function), and a range of other polyphenols that contribute to its antioxidant profile.

Why 650mg Per Capsule?

At 650mg of Sambucus nigra fruit per capsule, this formula delivers a meaningful daily dose of elderberry in a standardized capsule format, aligned with amounts used in peer-reviewed research on elderberry and immune function. Unlike elderberry syrups and gummies, this format provides a consistent, concentrated dose without added sugar, artificial flavours, or variable potency.

How It Works

Anthocyanins and Immune Support

Elderberry anthocyanins (primarily cyanidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-sambubioside) support the body's natural immune response by helping maintain normal immune cell activity and supporting antioxidant defences against oxidative stress. Anthocyanins are water-soluble polyphenols that are rapidly absorbed and distributed to immune-relevant tissues.

Antioxidant Defence

The polyphenol complex in elderberry fruit, including anthocyanins, quercetin, rutin, and vitamins A and C, supports antioxidant defences by scavenging reactive oxygen species and modulating oxidative stress pathways. Quercetin and rutin also support immune cell signaling and have been studied for their role in upper respiratory tract health.
