Astragalus Tincture 50ml

Herbal tinctures are derived from immersing an herb in an alcoholic solution (usually pure ethanol) for a period of 4-6 weeks. During this time, the active ingredients of the herb dissolve in the alcoholic solution, resulting in the tincture. 

Tinctures are much more potent than extracts and infusions. Astragalus Tincture (Astragalus Membranaceus) comes from processing the root of the plant, which in China is known as huang qi (yellow energy). It has the same properties as the dried herb. In modern herbal therapy, Astragalus is mainly used as an immune system enhancer. Clinical studies conducted on individuals prone to frequent colds and herpes (simplex keratitis) have shown a clear improvement in symptom management. The beneficial effects of Astragalus have been linked to its high content of polysaccharides.

The herb is considered ideal for use by individuals feeling fatigue, exhaustion, frequently catching colds, or in the recovery stage. It is often used together with ginseng as a tonic for the body. Astragalus root is rich in magnesium (1,860ppm) and potassium (10,000ppm) while also containing iron, linoleic acid, manganese, choline, betaine, rhamnose, and Beta-sitosterol. Astragalus is believed to have a positive effect on purifying pus from the body.

Astragalus Tincture is manufactured in England under the strictest European standards, using exclusively organic raw materials.
