Extra Info

Traditional Chinese medicine believes the fully developed principal tap root of Astragalus provides a much greater benefit than smaller immature and secondary roots. This supplement contains primarily this fully mature principal tap root of Astragalus that has been grown in the Pacific Northwest on our certified organic farm. Western herbalists began using Astragalus in the 1800s as a tonic. It became more popular in the 1980's an important aid in strengthening the natural defense system of the body. It is presently being studied by researchers at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in collaboration with the Federal Government's Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) research program. The clinical study will focus on botanicals that affect the immune system of patients with cancer and infectious disease. Note: This does not prove the effectiveness of Astragalus in the treatment of cancer, and we do not advocate the use of herbs for self-treatment for any serious disease without the advice of a qualified health care professional.
