Homeopathy’s success with viral influenza is discussed as well as various herbal treatments and ascorbic acid. The main focus is on a new product made from elderberries that has been prepared in such a way that it blocks replication of viral influenza and theoretically double stranded DNA viruses in general. The technology used to make this product possible and the implications for further research and product development are also discussed.
