Elder

Black Elder (Sambucus nigra) is another incredibly powerful medicinal herb. Elder flowers are diaphoretic (induce perspiration), and hot tea made with elder flowers helps to relieve fevers when you are coming down with the flu or a cold. The flowers also aid in relieving bronchial congestion and coughs. Elder flowers can also be made into a tincture.

Elderberries are antimicrobial and antiviral, and help to boost the immune system. They also contain high amounts of antioxidants. The berries can be made into a delicious and effective syrup. Great for kids! You can take elder syrup as a preventative all during the fall and winter.

The flowers and leaves of the elder can also be made into a salve and applied topically for skin irritations, bruises and sprains.

Please note that only Black Elder should be used internally. Red Elder (Sambucus racemosa), which has red berries, is toxic.
