Expert Response
Can I drink elderberry tea (dried berries) every day, indefinitely? Thanks, Jodi Howland
Dear Jodi Howland,
According to this article https://www.webmd.com/diet/elderberry-tea-is-it-good-for-you drinking elderberry tea may have some beneficial effects. There may be some confusion as the raw berry and seeds are toxic however once cooked and dried there should be no concern. As with any food substance moderation is key, there doesn't seem to be much information on how much is too much but at the same time a greater amount may not be anymore effective than a moderate amount. If you should experience any concerning changes in health consult your doctor and inform them of all medication and supplements taken. Thank you for your question;
