Immune Defense, Antioxidant & Respiratory Support
 
AVE Generational Remedies® Elderberry is an alcohol-based herbal dietary supplement traditionally used to support immune system function, antioxidant protection, and respiratory health. Revered across European and Western herbal traditions, Elderberry has long been relied upon as a foundational botanical for seasonal wellness and immune resilience.
This extract is formulated for individuals seeking comprehensive immune support through a whole-plant, systems-based approach rather than short-term immune stimulation alone.
 
Product Overview
Elderberry is rich in anthocyanins, flavonoids, and polyphenolic compounds, which contribute to its traditional use in immune support and oxidative balance. These constituents have historically been used to support the body’s response to seasonal stressors, promote healthy inflammatory signaling, and assist the respiratory system during times of increased immune demand.
Alcohol extraction allows for efficient preservation and delivery of Elderberry’s bioactive compounds, ensuring rapid absorption and consistent potency. This preparation is suitable for daily use during immune-challenging periods or as part of a long-term immune-supportive routine.
