Clinical Trial Shows Benefits of Elderberry Juice in Weight Management
Advertisement
Elderberry juice may be a potent tool for weight management and enhancing metabolic health, according to a recent Washington State University-led study.
A clinical trial published in the journal Nutrients found that drinking 12 ounces of elderberry juice daily for a week causes positive changes in the gut microbiome and improves glucose tolerance and fat oxidation.
The researchers tested the effects of elderberry on metabolic health in a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial with 18 overweight adults. Participants consumed either elderberry juice or a placebo with similar coloring and taste, specially designed by North Carolina State University’s Food Innovation Lab, while maintaining a standardized diet.
