Why You Should Be Using Elderberry Tonic

Elderberry Tonic

Hello! My name is Sara, and I am half of the Holton Homestead, located in Elkhart IA. A tiny bit on us, we do a few farmers markets in our area and have a large garden, keep bees, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, rabbits, and a pig named Carl.

A couple of years ago I heard about the amazing benefits of consuming elderberry in the winter months for an immunity boost. I have always been more willing to try medicinal over pharmaceutical so I decided to start looking at recipes and adding it to my daily regimen.

After looking into the best recipes, I found that elderberry goes well with cinnamon, ginger, clove, and honey. Each has their own added benefits in addition to the elderberry. Plus, elderberries are very bitter alone and adding the honey makes it delicious. Elderberry Tonic was born…

What's elderberry Tonic good for? Elderberry is used for “the flu” (influenza) and boosts the Immune System and helps your body fight disease. It is also used for sinus pain, back and leg pain (sciatica), nerve pain (neuralgia), and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Elderberries are a rich source of vitamins A and C, which are crucial in helping the body maintain optimal health. Plus, the bioflavonoids in elderberry tonic boost the body's immune system by increasing antioxidant levels and viruses that damage cell walls. Benefits of cinnamon include high antioxidants and anti-inflammatory. Ginger is also anti-inflammatory and known for helping with the common cold. Clove is known for killing off bacteria and another ingredient high in antioxidants. Plus let’s talk about how amazing honey is. Honey also has antioxidants, it is antibacterial and antifungal, it boosts immunity, helps with digestion and gut health, tame stomach flu, shorten the length of a cold, can sooth a sore throat and help with seasonal allergies. Local raw honey is known to help with allergies because it contains pollen particles from the very plants in your area that may be causing your allergies. Taking micro daily doses of the very pollen you are allergic to can cause immunity. My Elderberry Tonic is made with our local honey. It is pure honey, never heated, so it contains all the natural vitamins, enzymes, powerful antioxidants, and other important nutrients.

After taking the tonic daily, and being protected from all the sickness that was around me I started sharing it with family and friends. Elderberry has become all the buzz and people were curious and wanted to try. With so many positive results on avoiding the flu and feeling better quicker, it has become very popular. Because nobody has time for sickness!
