What the research says about Elderberry C Chewable's ingredients
Educational summaries of published research on the individual ingredients in this formula - not claims about this finished product. CanPrev Elderberry with C Chewable's claim is the authorized use under NPN 80117889.
Symptoms relieved about 4 days earlier in a Norwegian influenza trial
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 60 adults with influenza-like symptoms during the 1999-2000 season in Norway, those given oral elderberry extract saw symptoms resolve on average 4 days earlier and used significantly less rescue medication than the placebo group.
Human RCTComplete recovery in 2-3 days versus about 6 days for placebo during an influenza B outbreak
In a placebo-controlled, double-blind trial during a community influenza B outbreak, a standardized elderberry extract brought significant symptom improvement within 2 days for over 93% of participants, and a complete cure within 2 to 3 days for nearly 90%, versus about 6 days in the placebo group.
Human RCTShorter, milder colds in 312 long-haul air travellers
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of economy-class passengers flying from Australia to an overseas destination, those taking a standardized elderberry extract had significantly fewer total cold-episode days and lower average symptom scores than the placebo group.
Human RCTA rapid review of 936 adults across five clinical studies
A rapid review of five clinical studies in 936 adults found that mono-herbal elderberry preparations, taken within 48 hours of symptom onset, were associated with reduced duration and severity of common cold and influenza symptoms, including fever, headache and nasal congestion.
Rapid reviewAmong the most-studied traditional flu remedies in a national ethnopharmacology survey
A nationwide review of Turkish folk medicine identified Sambucus nigra as one of the most frequently investigated plants used traditionally against influenza, alongside a small group of botanicals with confirmed experimental anti-influenza activity.
Ethnopharmacological reviewFewer respiratory infections and sick days in a pediatric trial
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of children aged 3 to 10 with a history of frequent respiratory infections, a food supplement containing Sambucus nigra along with vitamins, minerals and a probiotic strain significantly reduced the number of infection episodes and the number of days with fever, cough and rhinitis compared with placebo.
Human RCT (pediatric)Blocked replication of an avian influenza strain in human lung cells
In human epithelial cell cultures infected with H9N2 avian influenza virus, higher concentrations of elder fruit extract significantly reduced viral titer and viral protein synthesis, an effect linked to disruption of the lipid raft structures the virus uses to enter and exit cells.
Preclinical studyStrongly inhibited influenza A and a human coronavirus in vitro
A double-standardized blend of elderberry and chokeberry extracts strongly inhibited replication of both influenza A (H1N1) and human betacoronavirus-1 in cell culture, with a post-infection mechanism the authors considered relevant to natural remedies for mild seasonal respiratory viral infections.
Preclinical studyReduced inflammatory signalling and oxidative stress in a cell model
In a cellular model of oxidative stress, elderberry extract was non-cytotoxic, reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species, and was more effective than a comparison berry extract at inhibiting secretion of the inflammatory messenger IL-6.
Preclinical studyA dedicated review of black elderberry's bioactive compounds
A review of black elderberry's polyphenols, anthocyanins and other bioactive components describes evidence for antioxidant and immune-supportive effects, while cautioning that more comprehensive clinical data are still needed before broad chronic-disease claims can be generalized.
ReviewOne of eight berries profiled for antioxidant health benefits
A review of nutritionally important berries, including elderberry, describes their high antioxidant and polyphenol content and associated anti-inflammatory activity as key contributors to their reported health benefits.
ReviewAmong the best-regenerating extracts for intestinal barrier health
In a laboratory model of the intestinal lining, elderberry extract was among the fruit extracts that best supported regeneration of barrier function after oxidative-stress exposure, alongside high measured antioxidant potential.
Preclinical studyFewer colds and 59% shorter duration in men with marginal vitamin C status
In a randomized, double-blind trial of healthy men with marginal vitamin C status, 1000mg of daily vitamin C reduced the number of men reporting a cold episode and shortened average cold duration by 59% compared with placebo over an 8-week period.
Human RCTLower odds of a common cold in 1,444 army recruits
In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of Republic of Korea Army recruits during basic training, those given daily vitamin C had a significantly lower risk of a diagnosed common cold than the placebo group.
Human RCTFewer repeat colds over a 5-year Japanese trial
In a 5-year, double-blind, randomized controlled trial, adults taking a higher daily dose of vitamin C were significantly less likely to experience three or more colds over the study period than those on a lower dose, though no clear effect on cold severity or duration was seen.
Human RCTSupports neutrophils' ability to seek out and clear pathogens
A review of vitamin C's immune roles describes how it accumulates in neutrophils and can enhance their chemotaxis, phagocytosis and generation of reactive oxygen species used to kill invading microbes, supporting both innate and adaptive immune defence.
ReviewNearly halved the risk of respiratory infection after heavy exercise
A systematic review and meta-analysis of nutritional supplements in athletes found that vitamin C supplementation was associated with a pooled rate ratio of 0.49 for upper respiratory tract infections following intense exercise, one of the few nutrients with a consistent protective effect in this setting.
Meta-analysisA balanced look across four systematic reviews
An evidence-mapping analysis using the Epistemonikos database, drawing on four systematic reviews and eight primary studies, concluded that vitamin C has minimal or no impact on the duration of a common cold once it has already started.
Evidence synthesisInhibited multiple influenza A and B strains in laboratory testing
The same standardized elderberry extract used in the community outbreak trial also reduced hemagglutination and inhibited replication of several human influenza A and B strains, plus animal influenza strains, when tested in vitro in canine kidney cells.
Preclinical studySide effects were rare, and more common with placebo than with elderberry
Across the five clinical studies in this rapid review, adverse events with elderberry preparations were rare and, where reported, occurred more often in comparison groups than in elderberry-treated groups; the authors noted insufficient evidence yet to support use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Rapid reviewWell tolerated over three months in children aged 3 to 10
The Sambucus nigra-containing pediatric supplement in this trial was well tolerated over the three-month study period, with no safety concerns reported in the 110 children who completed it.
Human RCT (pediatric)Helps protect the body's own barrier tissues from oxidative stress
Beyond its role inside immune cells, vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes oxidant-scavenging activity in the skin, helping protect tissues from environmental oxidative stress.
ReviewCochrane review: shorter colds with regular daily supplementation
A Cochrane meta-analysis of 31 comparisons covering 9,745 cold episodes found that regular daily vitamin C supplementation reduced common cold duration by 8% in adults and 14% in children, with a larger effect in people under brief periods of severe physical stress.
Meta-analysisNo clear effect on days spent at home sick
The same Epistemonikos-based analysis found no significant effect of vitamin C on the number of days participants stayed home or away from work or school with a cold, a more practical everyday measure alongside symptom duration.
