Elderberry is loaded with antioxidants and vitamins that is often taken as a supplement for colds and flu because it helps alleviate symptoms. Taking elderberries as a supplement is often better than eating the raw fruit in order to more tightly control the dose.
As always, consult your doctor before you begin taking new supplements to make certain they will not interfere with your current medications or conditions.
