Astragalus root has been a staple of Chinese herbal tradition for well over two thousand years — usually taken through the colder months, when the body is under the most pressure. NFH's version gives you that same root in a standardized extract, so every capsule delivers a known amount rather than a guess. What's in it Each vegetable capsule contains 500 mg of Astragalus membranaceus root extract, standardized to 3% astragalosides. Astragalosides are the compounds most closely studied in astragalus research, and standardizing to them is what separates a consistent extract from a variable one. Alongside them the root naturally carries polysaccharides and flavonoids. Non-medicinal ingredients are kept short: vegetable magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, and a vegetable capsule shell. Who tends to reach for it People wanting steady, everyday immune support rather than a short-term fix Anyone drawn to adaptogens for handling ongoing stress and demanding stretches Shoppers looking for a herbal formula without gluten, soy, dairy, wheat, yeast, or citrus Vegans — the capsule shell is plant-based Taking it One capsule daily with water. It's a once-a-day formula, which makes it easy to keep up with — and consistency matters more than dose size with adaptogenic herbs. 90 capsules works out to a three-month supply. Worth knowing before you buy Speak to a healthcare practitioner first if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or living with an autoimmune condition. Discontinue use if you notice any reaction. Store somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sun, with the cap closed. Keep out of reach of children, and don't use if the safety seal is broken.
