Eldermune™ 65:1 Elderberry Concentrate

• ElderMune® is a solvent-free concentrate that contains all the elderberry components including polyphenols and anthocyanins, unlike an extract that contains limited elderberry actives.
• ElderMune® does not contain maltodextrin, which is commonly used in spray-dried elderberry juice concentrate powders. Instead it is fortified with Sunfiber®, an extensively studied functional fiber with numerous benefits.
• Sunfiber®, a prebiotic, soluble dietary fiber, helps replace the natural elderberry fiber lost during the juicing process. Other elderberry juice concentrates are devoid of fiber.
• The elderberry concentrate has a high concentration ratio of 65:1 (65 grams of pure elderberry fruit makes 1 gram of the elderberry concentrate used in ElderMune®).
• A 100 mg dose of ElderMune® is made from an industry-leading, 4,200 mg of elderberry fruit.
• ElderMune® has been tested to be free of Prunacin and Holocacin by HPLC-MS/MS. These compounds are metabolites of cyanide, which could be present if the elderberry is not properly processed.
• The elderberries in ElderMune® are TRU-ID® certified as authentic. ElderMune® is free of purple dyes, unlike some adulterated products on the market.
• ElderMune® is made using an exclusive drying process utilizing a patented, infrared, low temperature drying technology that helps to preserve key antioxidants – polyphenols and anthocyanins.
• In tests, ElderMune® powder was found to have more polyphenol content than other elderberry powders. This is due to the low temperature drying process which retains much more of these sensitive active components.
• Supports healthy immune function
• Supports healthy digestion
• Demonstrates a prebiotic effect
• Excellent source of polyphenols & anthocyanins

• The recommended dose for ElderMune® is 100-1,000 mg/serving. The product can be formulated into capsules, tablets or gummies for immune support between 100 and 500 mg. ElderMune® works well in a syrup to compete against the leading brands at a dose of 1,000 mg.
• ElderMune® can be combined with BGF-Immune®, InoPhyte®, SunActive® Zinc, ButyraGen™ or probiotics to offer other unique immune and digestive health products.
• ElderMune® also works well as a low dose prebiotic and can be combined with probiotics for a synbiotic effect.

• Dietary supplements
• Functional foods & beverages
• Animal Health

The elderberry concentrate to Sunfiber® ratio is 65:34, with 1% silicon dioxide added as a flow agent. It is an extremely free flowing powder with low water activity for ease in processing. It readily dissolves in water to form a palatable, slightly sweet, purple solution.

• Elderberry fruit and Sunfiber® are GRAS.
• Elderberry is listed in AHPA’s Herbs of Commerce 1st Edition 1992 and is thus an ODI (Old Dietary Ingredient) suitable for use in a dietary supplement.
• Sunfiber® (partially hydrolyzed guar fiber) is self-affirmed GRAS and is an FDA-approved form of dietary fiber.
