Elderflower - Dried Sambucus nigra Loose Flower from 100% Nature (02 oz)

What are the Natural Benefits of Elderflower? Did you know that elderflower is the oldest herb cultivated by man? For over 4,000 years, natural healers have relied on elderflower to treat asthma and allergies. Today, scientists and doctors are discovering the secrets behind this powerful healing herb. Traditionally used for detoxification purposes, elderflower may also help strengthen the immune system by clearing the lymph nodes. Antioxidants, like those contained in elderflower, are essential to protecting the body from free radical damage. Many foods derived from animal fats release free radicals in the body. Brew a cup of elderflower tea, add a slice of lemon or ginger, breathe deeply and relax. To brew a fresh cup, add three to four grams of elderflower to five ounces of hot water and let steep for 10 to 20 minutes. Elderflower’s taste is refreshing without being too floral or perfuming – just what your body needs to relax and refresh if you are struggling with allergies. When preparing elderflower tea, only use the dried flowers.
