Tastes like overly fermented berries by JS  2 Stars
January 22, 2010
Sort of tastes like overly fermented berries, the 3.8g content of the actual berry extract is low compared to other products out there.

I Believe by -TMcN- (Snohomish, WA United States)  4 Stars
December 25, 2009
I'm not a holistic type, but I'm also not a fan of flu vaccines. I've been taking Sambucol (1 spoonful in the morning) in the late autumn/winter for several years, and have not suffered flu in that time. I have had one cold, so I'm not sure that it raises ALL anti-virus protection, but then again, I was working in a petri-dish of a crowded office with lots of parents and people travelling overseas at the time, so there may just be limits.
Sambucol is thick, with just a hint of a berry taste, not much flavor at all. A bottle doesn't last very long, so you'll probably want to buy two or three at a time. (Yes, vaccines would be cheaper over a season.) Don't let it drip on anything; the deep blue/purple color is hard to wash up. But I believe it helps reduce illness.

Yum. Oh, and it's good for you. by Jenna Glatzer (NY, United States) 4 Stars
December 08, 2009
I don't know why so few people know about Sambucol. I had never heard of it until this year, when a friend told me to try it. I had been getting colds over and over again. "My kids and I all take it and we almost never get sick. It's elderberry syrup."
I thought, "Isn't that something from the Smurfs?"
I went to my local pharmacy and they looked at me like I had six heads. Elderberry syrup? I told them the name Sambucol, and they still just shook their heads and stared at me. I decided my friend was nuts.
Then I looked it up online and found this little group of people singing its praises. My mom found some for me at a chain drugstore, and I tried it while I still had a bad cold. It didn't help. (That's why I took away a star.) The cold dragged on for nearly 2 weeks no matter what I tried.
But I liked the taste of the Sambucol-- thick, a bit like blueberries but not as sweet. And I liked that it was supposed to be good for me, and easy to take, so I figured, "Why not?" I kept taking it, and bought the kids' version for my daughter, too (nowhere near as tasty, by the way... too sweet and much thinner).
Anyway, my daughter and I have not been sick again since then. I don't know if that's the result of the Sambucol or not, and it hasn't been long enough for me to make any definite pronouncements, but I was definitely on a bad streak before I began taking it. What I know now is that I like it, it makes me feel like I'm doing something good for my body, and I can't figure out any reason not to take it... so I'll keep doing it.

Sambucol Chew Tabs by Sean LeBeau (USA) 4 Stars
December 01, 2009
Too bad these chews don't have a better taste!! I think they're effective and useful for their intended purpose. Maybe it's "mind over matter!" But I'm convinced that they helped me...isn't that what's really important!!
