Elderberry

The Backyard Herb That's Better Than a Flu Shot Studies show it boosts flu-fighting antibodies and actually disarms the flu virus.

If flu shots are ever in short supply again, don't panic. Now there's something even better -- something you should know about whether you get a flu shot or not.

The backyard herb elderberry has been used as a folk remedy for flu, colds, and coughs since ancient times.

Very bad news for colds and flus

More recently, results of a study saw flu sufferers recover in record time. The researchers found that elderberry literally disarmed the flu virus -- so it's unable to penetrate cell walls. Those who took elderberry were also found to have higher levels of flu-fighting antibodies, indicating a stronger immune system and less chance of getting the flu in the first place.

What's more, elderberry has shown great promise combating other viruses, including AIDS, herpes, and Epstein-Barr.
