WEST NILE VIRUS

West Nile Virus
Helped by Sambucol (Black Elderberry Extract)
"Beith Dagan, Israel: In vitro laboratory research at the Kimron Veterinary Institute shows that a uniquely standardized Black Elderberry extract (Sambucol) neutralizes the West Nile virus. Additional research may prove its protective effect against the virus in humans........In a recently published human clinical study, Sambucol Black Elderberry extract was shown to enhance immunity by stimulating increased production of certain white blood cells (cytokines). Study researchers concluded: "...in addition to its antiviral properties, Sambucol Elderberry Extract and its formulations activate healthy immune system by increasing inflammatory cytokine production." The complete study is published in the European Cytokine Network (Volume 12, Issue 2, June 2001, pages 290-296)
