Astragalus plays a vital role in Chinese medicine.
It has been used historically to treat infections of the mucous
membranes of the body, especially the urinary and respiratory tracts.
This herb is also known to help strengthen the immune system by
stabilizing the body’s shield or defenses against viruses and bacteria.
This herb is oftentimes likened unto Echinacea, however, the difference
between the two herbs is that Astragalus can also be used as a
long-term preventative and restorative herb, both to prevent illness
and to renew energy and the body’s overall “CHI” or vitality.

The
Chinese name for Astragalus is Huang qi, which means “yellow energy.”
This herb is considered a treatment for frequent colds, chronic lung
weakness, shortness of breath, weak digestion, general weakness or
fatigue, lack of appetite, diabetes, organ prolapse, nephritis, stomach
ulcers, and it is also known as a liver protectant and heart tonic.
Astragalus is widely known to help strengthen both the vital parts of
the immune system: nonspecific immunity, which protects against a wide
range of foreign invaders, and specific immunity, which enlists
individual antibodies to target specific invaders (antigens). At least
three polysaccharides and two saponin constituents may be invaders in
these effects.
