Whole Formulas Astragalus Extract, 1 fl oz

Native to northern and eastern China, Mongolia and Korea, astragalus root (huang qi) has been used as a restorative health tonic, or “qi tonic” in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years.

Astragalus contains high levels of selenium for substantial free-radical defense and immune system support, and may display antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity.

Considered an adaptogen, astragalus may promote balance of the body's systems and an increased resistance to the negative effects of stress.

In Chinese tradition, huang qi is said to tonify the lungs, spleen and “three burning spaces” (metabolic functions), increase Qi, overcome weakness, raise Yang, reduce perspiration and facilitate the excretion of water.

The Benefits of Herbal Extracts:

Potency

The herbs used in Whole Formulas extracts are picked at the peak of their growth cycle to ensure maximum potency, then processed immediately upon receipt to capture their inherent vitality. Extracts are often the preferred choice of herbalists and naturopaths for this reason.

Bioavailability

Due to common digestion issues, many people have trouble fully breaking down pills and tablets. With extracts, the plant material has already been processed during formulation. All that remains is the full-spectrum of potent active nutrients ready for absorption.

Convenience

Simply place the recommended dose in water or juice and drink. The built-in dropper cap makes it easy to control dosage.

1 fl oz in amber glass bottle with dropper top.
