Astragalus
Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus), also known as Huang Qi, Milkvetch, and Yellow Leader, is a potent tonic herb whose claim to fame is its powerful immune-supporting properties. With a history of use dating back over 2,000 years, it is one of the key herbs used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), categorized in the highest class of potency in this ancient traditional system of medicine.
Astragalus eventually made its way into Western herbal medicine practices, and is now one of the primary immune tonic herbs in Western literature, including the European Pharmacopoeia and the World Health Organization’s Monographs on Selected medicinal plants. The combination of Astragalus’ antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and its immuno-stimulating effects further work together to prevent as well as treat infection, as described further under “Key Benefits” below.
