BEE&YOU Elderberry Immune Support Shot Drink for Kids makes children happy and moms at ease!
Propolis, produced by bees to ensure sterilization in the hive by collecting leaves, stems, and buds of plants, is combined with two very valuable fruits: black elderberry, a forest fruit, and carob, the fruit of an evergreen tree grown in the Mediterranean Region. Sweetened only with raw honey, BEE&YOU Elderberry Immune Support Shot Drink for Kids is a favorite flavor of children due to its unique taste and rich content!
This product, containing 80 mg of Vitamin C (88% Daily Value) per serving along with elderberry and propolis extract, contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system. A study led by Michael Mackanin, MD, professor emeritus of pediatrics at Cleveland Clinic, evaluated how elderberry is used in the treatment of patients between the ages of 5 and 12 with influenza B. It was found that elderberry shortened flu symptoms. Combining vitamin C with elderberry and propolis extract shows an even more synergistic effect for the immune system.
An example of a scientific study examining the effects of a mixture containing propolis and vitamin C on respiratory infections commonly seen in children:
“A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study investigated the effectiveness of an herbal preparation containing echinacea, propolis, and Vitamin C in preventing respiratory tract infections in children. A total of 430 children, aged 1 to 5 years, were randomized to an herbal extract preparation or a placebo elixir during a 12-week winter period. The herbal preparation contained 50 mg/mL of echinacea, 50mg/mL of propolis, and 10 mg/mL of vitamin C. This mixture was administered 5 ml and 7.5 ml to the children aged 1 to 3 years and 4 to 7 years, respectively, twice daily for three months. The scientists measured the number of illness episodes, the number of episodes per child, and the number of days with fever per child. The results demonstrated that the total number of illness days and duration of individual episodes were significantly lower in the group that received herbal mixture. The researchers reported a preventive effect of a product containing echinacea, propolis, and vitamin C on the incidence of respiratory tract infections.”
