Summary
Adaptogenic Immune Support
Astragalus has long been used as a tonic for strengthening the body’s resistance against disease and promoting energy, stamina, and vitality. Considered a valuable “chi” tonic in Traditional Chinese Medicine, where it has been used therapeutically for over 2,000 years.
Astragalus is an adaptogen – meaning that it adapts its effects to the needs of organs, systems and tissues in the body to help maintain homeostasis, or balance. Its balancing effect applies to the functioning of the immune system as well, supporting its function to help maintain strong natural defenses when taken as a daily tonic.
Antiviral and anti-inflammatory Support
The polysaccharides and saponins in astragalus have been studied for their unique antiviral effects as well as anti-inflammatory benefits. As it is also rich in antioxidants, astragalus can also help minimize the effects of oxidative stress.
Fun fact: Astragalus is an herb that is safe for children as an immune tonic!
