Astragalus Root Organic Sliced

What is Astragalus?  Many comments on Astragulas Root is "It Looks Like A Tongue Depressor".

Astragalus is a genus of herbs in the legume family, with over 2,000 species. The most commonly used species in traditional medicine is Astragalus membranaceus. Known as "Huang Qi" in Chinese, Astragalus has been a key component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for centuries, valued for its health benefits, especially in boosting the immune system and increasing energy.

Key Benefits of Astragalus:

  • Immune System Support: Helps boost the body's natural defenses against illnesses.
  • Energy Enhancement: Commonly used to combat fatigue and increase vitality.
  • Anti-Inflammatory: Contains properties that help reduce inflammation.
  • Antioxidant Effects: Protects cells from damage by neutralizing free radicals.
  • Heart Health: Supports cardiovascular health by improving blood flow and reducing oxidative stress.
  • Anti-Aging: May slow the aging process and improve longevity.

Research on Astragalus:

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD):

Research at Keio University Hospital in Tokyo found that Astragalus root preparations might help improve kidney function in patients with mild to moderate CKD, as measured by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Anti-Tumor Effects:

Several studies have explored the immunomodulatory and anti-tumor properties of Astragalus polysaccharides (APS). APS has been shown to enhance the body's immune response against tumors by promoting T cell proliferation and regulating cytokine production. Clinical applications include combining APS with chemotherapy and radiotherapy to improve treatment efficacy and reduce side effects.

Telomerase Activity and Anti-Aging:

The branded Astragalus extract, TA-65, has been studied for its potential to enhance telomerase activity, which is associated with anti-aging effects. However, studies on TA-65 have shown mixed results regarding its impact on lifespan extension and its efficacy might be limited by its bioavailability.
