Description: 100% PUREORGANIC - NON GMOASTRAGALUS ROOTHIGH POTENCY EXTRACT60% polysaccharide content1LB20:1 The root of Astragalus membranaceus, an herb that grows in northern China, has been used for over 2000 years to strengthen the body as a whole. Astragalus is believed by the Oriental people to strengthen muscle and support metabolic functions. One of the most important herbs in the world, Astragalus has been recognized as a superb and potent tonic by modern researchers. Astragalus is said to have an effect on the “surface” of the body --- that is, it is used to tonify the “Protective Qi,” known as Wei Qi in Chinese. This Protective Qi is a special kind of energy which circulates just under the skin and in the muscle. Protective Qi is a Yang energy. Protective Qi circulates in the subcutaneous tissues providing suppleness to the flesh and adaptive energy to the skin. This function is essential to life. Wei Qi is the energy of the skin and immune system, in harmony, that responds to changes in the environment. An important effect of Astragalus is in its ability to fortify the “Upright Qi.” Upright Qi is the energy allocated by the body to maintain upright posture and to maintain the position of the organs in their healthy position in their battle with gravity. As one gets older, this Upright Qi is naturally depleted.Traditional FunctionTonifies the “three burning spaces” (metabolic functions), increases Qi, tonifies the Lungs and Spleen, raises Yang, reduces perspiration, facilitates excretion of water*Who can use it?As an energizer, Astragalus is famed for its strengthening effects on the outside of the body, in particular to the musculature. It is therefore beneficial in particular to younger adults, who tend to be physically active and require abundant external energy. Astragalus is used to strengthen the legs and arms, and is commonly used by people who work outdoors, especially in the cold, because of its strengthening and warming nature. Ingredients: 100% pure Astragalus root extractAstragalus: A Superfood That Halts Aging And Revitalizes Your DNAAstragalus is a potent medicinal herbAstragalus is a class of herbs found in northern Asia that’s been used to treat fatigue and sickness for thousands of years.The Health Benefits of AstragalusAstragalus seems to work its magic through the following mechanisms:• It causes your body to produce more telomeres, a part of your DNA that protects chromosomes from degradation• It contains a unique class of polysaccharides which are very biologically active• It improves the rate of replication of immune cells called macrophagesThese three properties are very unique to astragalus, and are one of the reasons its such a wonderful medicinal herb.How Astragalus Stops AgingAstragalus is uniquely healthy for your cellular health because of its ability to protect your body’s telomeres from degradation.Telomeres are small pieces of DNA located at the edge of your chromosomes. When your cells replicate telomeres help prevent your DNA from unraveling and keep it locked into place. They serve a similar function as the plastic caps on the edges of your shoelace.Whenever your cells replicate telomeres shorten a wee bit. After so many replications the stubby telomeres reach a critical point where they’re no longer usable and cells begin their programmed death, a process called “apoptosis.”Astragalus causes your body to increase its production of a substance called “telomerase”, which is an enzyme that enables the production of more telomeres. In clinical studies mice treated with extracts of astragalus root had telomeres that were longer and degraded more slowly than a control group.What’s more impressive is that despite these remarkable effects on cellular health there’s apparently no toxicity from astragalus if taken at reasonable dosages.As stated before, astragalus contains some polysaccharides which are just darn unique.The most notable compounds are called formononetin, calycosin and astragaloside IV, and seem to do the following things in your body:Who Should Take An Astragalus Supplement?Because of its widespread health benefits and benign nature, most people would benefit from having some astragalus in their diet.
