Another Gratuitous Elderberry Post
2007-08-05 00:38:00 Everyone, or nearly so, in our small village has a terrible hacking, icky cold. All of us here at the Sanctuary have been a bit run down and short on sleep so it was no surprise when Loba woke up yesterday morning with a sore throat, low grade fever, muscle aches and copious phlegm and other face fluids.... She was miserable and overtired and begging for something to make it go away. First, I assigned her to extra sleep, instructed her to pour Fire Cider on everything she ate and drink lots of Ginger tea to enhance the body's own virus fighting techniques of fever and sweating. She also ate easy to digest foods in small amounts in order to not further tax her system. AND, I dosed her up good with Elderberry Elixir, not that I don't love Elderberry syrup, but I have found time after time that Elderberry is MUCH more effective when not heated in any way... my two favorite ways of preparing are the Elixir (see recipe below) and a honey paste with whole dried berries ground into raw l...

Elderberry's And Perfect Skin
2007-07-14 01:12:00 The Elderberry Way To Perfect SkinForget expensive moisturisers and cosmetic surgery, a compound found in the humble elderberry could give a natural boost to skin.In the first study of its kind, a team of researchers led by Prof Aedin Cassidy at the University of East Anglia and Dr Paul Kroon at the Institute of Food Research, will explore whether the skin's condition is improved by a compound which gives berries their vibrant colour (called 'anthocyanin').In a 12-week trial starting in September, post-menopausal women will consume either extracts from elderberries or placebo capsules, and will have their skin's structure and appearance measured with state-of-the-art equipment used by experts in skin science. At the same time, researchers will also test whether the elderberry extract can reduce risk factors for heart disease."We already know that a healthy diet can help protect against heart disease and skin damage, and that a mixture of similar food components have been shown t...

Elderberry flower juice, part 1.
2006-12-02 16:11:06 This was actually one of the first post I ever wrote, after I started blogging, but as I wrote earlier, something went wrong for my host, and everything was lost, so I´m starting all over again. The elderberries are found in almost every corner of denmark, and especially where we are still able to keep our green areas, and thank god, we still hae a few left. When we took over our new house 2 years back, I noticed that one of the trees in the garden was as elderberry bush/tree. Both flowers and berries can be made into elderberry wine, and in Hungary an elderberry brandy is produced (requiring 50 kg of fruit to produce 1 litre of brandy). The alcoholic drink sambuca is made by infusing Elderberries and anise into alcohol. The berries are best not eaten raw as they are mildly poisonous, causing vomiting (particularly if eaten unripe).
