Lung HealthGreen icon of person with healthy lungs

In Western medicine, the lungs are principally regarded as respiratory organs responsible for oxygenating the blood and removing carbon dioxide. Their functions extend to warming and humidifying inhaled air, facilitating gaseous exchange, and filtering harmful substances (West, 2012, Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials).

On the other hand, traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) posits that the lungs govern Qi and respiration. According to TCM, lungs amalgamate clean air with grain Qi—energy derived from consumed food and water—as well as body fluids and spleen essence. This complex mixture is distributed throughout the body to provide nourishment and moisture (Wu et al., 2017, Journal of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences). Furthermore, TCM ascribes additional roles to the lungs: controlling channels and blood vessels, governing skin and hair—including sweat regulation—and being susceptible to emotional states like sadness (Li et al., 2019, Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine). Both the nose and hair are considered manifestations of lung health in TCM (Cheng et al., 2014, Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine).

Elderberry Powder - Organic Freeze Dried

Elderberries have been used as a tonic in folk and traditional medicine for centuries. The earliest references come from Ancient Greece and Rome, where berries were used to resolve various issues. Featured in the writings of Hippocrates, Elderberry has a long history of use among European herbalists, possibly because of its unique components. It's made by freeze-drying fresh elderberries, which are then ground into a powder. This powder retains the beneficial compounds of the fresh berries and can be used in various ways, from adding to smoothies to making teas and syrups. It's a convenient and easy way to get the qualities of elderberries without having to source and prepare fresh berries. Our Organic Freeze-Dried Elderberry Powder is a nutritional superstar, as it's loaded with almost twice the nutrients of blueberries. Elderberries can be used to make preserves and wines and add richness, flavor, and color to recipes.
