Elderberry and Echinacea: Time-Tested Herbs for Immune Support

by Melissa Chichester

When it comes to supporting your immune system, nature has provided an abundance of useful herbs. 

For centuries, people have turned to plants like elderberry and echinacea for their unique properties. These herbs remain trusted companions in wellness today.

If you’re looking for traditional ways to support immune health, incorporating these herbs into your routine could be a good solution.* Let’s explore their benefits and the history of these time-honored plants.

Elderberry: A tiny blue traditional fruit

Elderberries, with their dark blue hue and tart taste, grow on elder trees commonly found in Europe and North America. Though too sour to eat raw, they’ve been cherished in traditional health practices for generations. These small berries contain flavonoids, plant compounds that contribute to overall wellness.*

Puritan’s Pride Elderberry is a convenient way to enjoy this traditional herb for immune support.* This formula provides 520 mg of Elderberry concentrate per serving and is provided in rapid release softgels. 

Puritan’s Pride Elderberry Gummies with Vitamin C, D & Zinc features essential nutrients like Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc to support immune health and antioxidant activity.*

Echinacea: Nature’s immune support herb

Echinacea, also known as coneflower, is indigenous to the United States, particularly the Great Plains. It’s a hardy plant that thrives in prairies and open fields. Echinacea can be taken in various forms, including teas, capsules, tinctures, and extracts. The versatility of this herb makes it easy to incorporate into daily wellness routines.

Known for being traditionally used to support the immune system, echinacea remains one of the most widely used herbs in natural practices.*
