History and Usage:

Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) comes from the root of a plant that possesses the ability to protect both the health of cells and the immune system. As one of the fifty herbs that form the core of traditional Chinese medical practice, it has a long legacy of benefits. Contemporary research has demonstrated that the antioxidant properties of astragalus are remarkable. It contains polyphenols called flavonoids that help to repair cells damaged by free radicals. Flavonoids also contribute to the body’s defenses by activating immune cells and by creating a protein called interferon that protects against viruses and other agents productive of disease. Astragalus also has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and diuretic properties.
