I purchased this because there was a rebate offer at the time. At $13.00 for a 4oz bottle it is a bit pricey.
Sambucal is a immune boosting syrup that can be taken once a day or during the winter season when the immune system is weaker. It is believed that the Black Elderberry in it has antioxidants that stimulate the immune system.
I have tried this in the winter and during times that the flu was going around at my daughters school. I did not see any improvement while taking it, and caught a cold while on it. It does taste very good, similar to a berry pie. However, when you look at the ingredients the first one listed is glucose syrup, which translates to sugar!
This product can be found in some major drugstores. For the price and ineffectiveness I do not recommend this.
