What the Label Data Shows

With 56 ingredients on the label, Sunshine Heroes Elderberry Immune is one of the more extensive botanical with nutrients supplement formulas from Nature's Sunshine in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), sold in other (e.g. tea bag) form. These ingredients span 10 nutrient categories, botanical, amino acid, blend, other, and 6 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 56-ingredient formula, 56 of 56 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.

A product's market status is worth checking before relying on this label. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2013-02-25. Once a product goes off-market, it is no longer manufactured or sold under this label, yet the DSLD keeps the record intact for historical reference, useful for researchers, anyone with an older bottle on hand, or tracking how formulations changed over time.
