Product Fact Sheet

Kids SambuKid

VitaHeath Kids Sambukid is specially formulated with ElderCraft® black elderberry extract, vitamin C and zinc to support a robust immune system and overall well-being. The rich anthocyanins in black elderberry act as antioxidants, strengthening the body and supporting respiratory health, while zinc plays a crucial role in healthy growth and development. Studies show that black elderberry boosts cytokine production, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), activating immune cells and promoting a healthy inflammatory response to infections.
