How does BLOCKADE differ from other commercially available elderberry extracts?
The elderberry extract in BLOCKADE is created using a proprietary extraction process which employs supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and affinity chromatography. This innovative technology allows for the production of a complex and complete herbal extract with over 1,000 natural chemistries represented, including optimized quantities of the bioactives identified as being responsible for elderberrys virus blocking action. Other commercially available elderberry extracts can have many fewer bioactives and thus can be deficient in those critical for virus blocking. Additionally, the unique extraction process utilized for the production of NewChapter’s BLOCKADE with ViraBlock allows, for the first time, the production of an herbal extract that is consistent from batch-to-batch and dose-to-dose. Analysis of other commercially available elderberry extracts shows a wide variation of bioactives represented, even from lozenges sampled from the same bottle. Q: Dose-to-dose consistency had
